    I think the Audigy2 is the best. I think it has proper 24bit recording compared to the audigy1

    It depends on what you're using it for. If it's just gaming and watching movies and that, an Audigy 2 would be fine. If it's for music production or sound engineering, you'd want something along the lines of an M-Audio Delta66.

    In my opinion, the Audigy 2 Planinum is the best home sound card available.

    If you're willing to take a "slight risk" ...
