huh? with the klipschies you dont use digital out! go with either the Audigy 2zs or the M-audio revo. they will most likely bring out the best in those speakers!

Yeah, it's pretty much decided that the M-audio cards are the best if you largely listen to music, while the Audigy is the best for games... That's pretty much your options for 'feasible top of the line cards'. There are obviously $400 cards that may do things a little bit better but you probably won't notice it.
Here's the thing, the Klipsch speakers are allready bright, and the audigy is a bright card.. pairing the two may not be the best. if you do, you might have to roll off the top end a bit.

It means a little stronger in the upper ranges. You might need to tone down the treble settings to get the best sound balance.

It appears the Audigy 2 zs has an almost completely flat frequency response. If it indeed sounds 'bright' then you'll have to use something other than an equilizer to fix the problem.
