Hi guys,
Happy new year everyone =D.
I had a quick question regarding the Creative Labs Audigy 2 sound card and was hoping I could get some feedback! =D
I went out tonight to the store and bought the Audigy 2 sound card. I was staring hard at the Audigy 1 and was wondering if I should have gotten that instead? Or does it doesnt really matter.. the price wasnt really a difference so it was no big deal, the audigy 1 was $99 and the audigy 2 was $129..
I was reading reviews here and there, this and that, but it never really answered my specific questions.
The way I am setup, I am running on these old speakers, Creative Labs Cambridge SoundWorks FPS2000 Digital if anyone is familiar with them? Connected to my Sound Blaster LIVE... I am not sure what version but it is pretty old.. in some review somewhere I read in a magazine, the writer suggested using the Creative Labs 6.1 6600 speakers wih the audigy 2, but when I saw it was only 120 watts total, it turned me away.. and its not even digital! Ive come to love my digital sound espesically with my old speakers that are digital..
in addition, a friend got me those expensive triport Bose headphones which totally rock, and I was wondering if the sound card would enhance it even more?
Should I have gotten the Audigy 1 over the Audigy 2? Or am I talking gibberish? since the audigy 2 is just like the audigy 1 but more power/stuff/etc etc?.. hehe which is the case most of the time? =D
So what should I do? I havent installed the card yet, It is still in its retail box. I dont intend to purchase any major speaker system anytime soon. Will the audigy 2 sound card work good with my Creative Labs FPS2000 Digital speaker system?
It is a 4-speaker system with sub connected to a digital din.
Would this be okay? Will I be using the power of the audigy 2 or should I just go return this sound card and wait longer until I can purchase a better speaker system?
Thanks for any advice guys, I apologize for any ramblings and continous babble.. =D

P.S. The majority of the time I would be using the Bose headphones instead of my speaker system since I usually use my PC real late at night so purchasing an expensive speaker system wouldnt really feel right, when I know I wont use it as much as I would the headphones..
