I have an old SB Live! card right now going through a decent receiver, however the SB does some strange things at times. I am guessing that the signal just isnt all that great coming from it, so what would you guys recommend. I'm basically looking for the best sound reproduction from DVDs and music, as for games I don't tend to crank those up too high if that matters.
As far as the sound I am getting right now, sometimes the right channel will just stop reproducing sound, so it goes into mono mode for a while, then just pops back in. At other times the sound will skip for a bit, then it pop back to normal playback. It doesnt happen every time, but it is very annoying when watching movies.
So if you have any experience with going through a receiver let me know which card you've had the best luck with.
