It's OK, but if you want some thing that Games will actually USE, buy a Soundblaster Audigy. I have the Audigy Plat. (With the front plate input board) and MAN, it's clear. 24-bit multi-channel performance and 100dB SNR for high definition audio.
I had a Turtle Beach Montego 2 (sp?) and it had A3D v2.0, and was ok, but 99% of games didn't make USE of that. They went with EAX. And now, EAX2 is out (Audigy Gamer) and is the 'new' standard.
Go with something people support. Turtle Beach does make a nice card, but they don't offer good updated driver support. They are mainly good for MIDI and sound editing...
If you are buying it for gaming, go with the SB Audigy. You WON'T go wrong.
PS: Soundblaster Live was a good card, why do you think it's 'nasty' ??
Here is the one I have: (click on the Photo Images)
