Hi,

I have bought edifier s550. i have currently creative audigy value sound card. Should I upgrade the sound card to asus xonar dx to get max performance from s550 or current audigy is ok for me.

if dx increases the performance than please tell me how much?

mostly i would like to watch movie on my pc and some time listening music.

Thanks in advance.

I have just bought Asus xonar dx for my 5.1 channel speakers. When I tried Dolby Prologic II for movies or mp3, I didn't hear any difference in sound of front and back speakers.

I have tried almost all settings. I have windows XP. I also don't see any audio channel selection in xonar control panel.

Can i get dolby prologic II in my Ubuntu operating system.
