I have the VXT4's.  Absolutely love the KRK line.  Check out the HT Omega Claro cards.

Thanks man.....I was looking for some possible sound cards... I need PCIe....PCI won't work.  looks like they have one card I can use.

I was also looking at the asus sonar essence stx

and the e-mu1212
http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/698862-REG/E_MU_24_56204_1212M_PCIe_Digital.html

I like the 1212 because it has balanced outs....the asus card has incredible specs...but it looks like the eCarlo card is right up there......decisions, decisions. 

Peace OOK

Xonar Essence it top notch too.  I considered that one as well.  Opted for the Claro, because I scored a used one on eBay for a great price.

Now I realize everytime you change something in your sounds system your ears need to adjust but could it really be that dramatic...

So I went with the E-mu1212 card.... it is super clean sounding. Balanced outs.  Now I am a little confused.  My speakers don't exactly sound bassless but they aren't producing the bass like the stock sound card.  I don't have any card/program eq'ing or roll off going on.. could be because it is so clean that i am not use to it.  Could it be i was use to hearing distortion thinking it was bass... ???


OOK

Figured it out....had to change some send and return settings.... all seems right now...
