Smooth Immigrant

I have a sb live value with the compaq drivers, and it sounds pretty good with my klipsch promedia and altec lansing speakers. Will my sound quality improve vastly with the santa cruz card? I am thinking about buying it because of all of the good reviews I've heard about it...Please tell me your opinions on whether I should buy it or stay with my current card.

I'm very happy with my S.C. and I upgraded from a Creative Audigy Gamer. It sounds fantastic on my Klipsch Promedia 5.1's. However, if your not using 5.1 speakers I really don't think the upgrade would really be worth the cost for you. The card does sound great though, and you will notice the difference if your an audiophile.
