Question : This Sound card for laptop or a PC?

 

[tkin]

Xonar Dg is an internal soundcard, Siberia is external, both complete different segments, no comparisons.

Xonar DG = Better Quality
Sibera = Virtual 7.1 Surround(that works, with Siberia headphones specially) and portability.

yea i am using pc
For portablity its good but all i want it better sound still lots of people suggested if using sibera headphones use usb sound card that will make v1 turn in to v2
any other sound card arround 2k which i can try?
And thans for reply megamind and tkin

 

[tkin]

No, both are good, I use Siberia USB and its very good.

Xonar Dg is an internal soundcard, Siberia is external,

Xonar also comes in external AFAIK.

If portability is not an issue and using with a PC, int. sound card is the way to go.. Get the Xonar DG..

Xonar also comes in external AFAIK.

Xonar U series does..

Xonar also comes in external AFAIK.

Not sure if its available here, cost would be a lot higher, and rashi

I wonder, if only, Asus shifts from Rashi, how much will they improve on sales!

I'll buy everything from asus, mobo, laptops, monitors, everything they can provide.

does the steel series usb card work with any headset,??
will it provide virtual 3d surround sound on odinary headset??

 

[tkin]

^^ Answer to both questions, yes.

thnx,im gonna get one of those,any other usb sound card,better for 2k?

 

[tkin]

Nope, not a single one, creative sells for 4k but has pretty bad review in new egg, stick to siberia, you get cmedia chipset and its xear 3d platform, the same platform(not the same chip) used on Asus Xonar DX/DG/DS cards, its a well known manufacturer.

For 3.7k you can buy the Audio Technica M35.
