I have an Audigy 2 ZS, had it for about 4 months now, bought it used off of a friend that had it for a year and a half before that. Excellent card, no defects, crashes, nothing. Much better than the Santa Cruz by Turtle Beach that I had before that... BTW, you can get one of the Audigy 2's for about $50 - $75 USD...

X-Fi is one of the best gaming cards, it supports up to EAX 5.0, some has X-RAM, and the CMSS-3D feature is astounding with headphones, along with the 24-bit crystallizer.
