sound Blaster Audigy ES 5.1

Who has this and what are your opinions on it.. Im thinking of getting it.

I just resently bought an original audigy which is pretty much the same thing as the es exept with firewire ports. I was upgrading from the integrated audio on my abit is7 mostly because the mic did not work too well on the onbaord card. The sound quality is noticably better and it works great. . It is a great deal for the money being half the cost of an audigy 2.

OK.. Its still snowd ice here.. So hopefully when my new 1900+ comes i can head down to ENU to get my ram and SC
