SoundBlaster Audigy 2 ZS Platinum: Solid performer for games, decent for studio recording
This was the last replacement for my computer from the massive power surge that destroyed my motherboard and several other components. I had planned on writing reviews on these items in the order that I received them, but I still can not find my Thermaltake Pure 680W power supply or my Crucial 1GB... Read full review »
Sound Blaster Audigy 2 Platinum: Best sound capabilities in it?s class
This past fall I was recording at a friends house using my old Sound Blaster Live! Platinum when I made the fateful mistake of using substandard adapters and one of them broke off into the microphone jack on the card itself. This was just the excuse I needed to upgrade my sound card to the next... Read full review »
A better soundcard won't be made until the Red Sox win the world series.
Forgive me in advance for the length of this review, but the number of features this soundcard has is truly sick (but, like, sick meant in the good way, not like, in the cold/flu season way.)
Why? For the last 5 years I've been using a SoundBlaster live! Platinum that I loved, but which...

High Quality Sound from the Leader in Sound Cards
This is the third sound "device" that I've been through after all my years with PC gaming and usage (one was onboard sound so I don't know where you would categorize that), and I have to say that I am very pleased with the latest product that Creative has released to the enthusiast-oriented PC...

CONFLICTS/CRASHES A REAL POSSIBILITY
I don't think I could possibly expand more on Gr8ful's description or review, except to point out some serious conflict flaws with this card.
The card is a gem when it works properly, which is seldom for most on the first attempt. I had only one problem and that was during gaming on-line...

Audigy 2 Platinum: Top of the line in sound
I purchased the Audigy 2 Platinum as a replacement for the onboard audio chipset I had been using for some time. I build my own systems, and as the chipset could do everything I required at the time, sound has always been the aspect to lag behind on my computers. I decided to go with the Audigy 2...

Great Quality
I bought this card not for all the inputs although they are really nice. I bought it for quality and that's what I got with it.
Installing the card went well at first, the instructions are very clear, it can take a while but if you follow them I'm sure anyone can do it. The only problem I...

Never Thought My Computer Could Sound So Good
"The Creative Labs Audigy 2 ZS Pro Platinum" is pretty much the best soundcard you can get. It has an amazing number of features, top notch sound with surround sound capability, and lots of connectivity options. This model does carry a hefty price, but if you want great sound on your computer this... Read full review »
Excellent soundcard. Nice features.
The Creative Soundblaster Audigy 2 Platinum came with my computer so I don't know how easy it is to install, however I have installed other Creative soundcards and as long as you don't have Integrated Audio (motherboard) it's pretty easy. The features of this card are best exploited by using it's... Read full review »
Conflicts with Norton Systemworks 2004 (NAV)
This is an otherwise solid performer, BUT it has major conflicts with Norton Systemworks 2004 (particularly Norton Antivirus) and the only workaround that allows Norton Antivirus to be enabled is to disable four Soundblaster startup items in msconfig. This is unacceptable and its software needs... Read full review »
