  • Very good external design, All input ports are backlit, Full support with WDM and ASIO drivers, Included Asus PMP encodes blazing fast to WMA/MP3, Fully Dolby certified sound card, Windows control panel looks stable and complete, ASIO drivers have low, 2m...
  • High retail price, Black metallic shell on the card runs very HOT
  • Asus first attempt in the sound card arena comes in the form of the "Xonar D2". The model comes either in PCI or PCI-E support. In our review, we examined the Xonar D2 PCI version. The ASUS Xonar D2 features a signal- to-noise ratio (SNR) of 118 db ...

  • Asus is onto a winner in some respects - the bundle is the best weve seen to date, the card is made extremely well and includes some awesome features. However, these features are still identical to the CMedia Oxygen chipset weve been looking at for n...

  • Extremely accurate audio reproduction, High SNR, vanishingly low distortion (THD, IMD), Excellent driver software, Amazing software bundle, High-quality components,
  • DSP is not hardware-accelerated, Limited EAX support
  • The ASUS Xonar D2 impressed us at just about every turn. Through and through, a high-end approach has been taken to the design of the Xonar, from extremely high quality circuit components to rock-solid driver software. However, the secret weapon of th...

  • If you're after a basic home theatre card, there are cheaper options that give decent results, such as the Aureon 7.1 PCI previously reviewed. Similarly, I wouldn't recommend the card for gaming since with only EAX 2, it offers nothing that any other gene...

  • To summarise, ASUS has entered the arena of PC audio with an impressive feature laden product that tries to cover a very wide spectrum of audio from recording/mastering, to surround media, to games; which is no mean feat considering the prices of even...

  • Abstract:  When we said that Asus makes everything back in May, we werent joking about it -- and let it be reinforced if you just take a look at the introduction of our linked review. A unit of Asus first and flagship soundcard, the Xonar D2, was in our hands f...

  • For the audiophile, Asuss Xonar D2 has the edge over Creatives X-Fi. However, its effectiveness for games revolves primarily around whether Dolby Digital and DTS Connect become common standards. At the moment, even though ALchemy is very much a work ...

  • Sounds greater, Looks better, Kills DRM dead
  • Silly money, broken in Vista
  • Something feels very, very wrong about acclaiming a sound card for its looks. Isnt that like praising a mouse for its sonic properties, or a power supply for its framerates? No doubt about it though, the Xonar is one fine-looking piece of audio kit. P...
