Used SB: Which one to prefer?

Hi,

lookin for a used Soundblaster-Card, but I don't know which one to prefer.
Mainly I want to use it to play softsynths/sampler via midi_keyboard...

Are there big deifferences in the sound quality between the LIVE and the AUDIGY?
And - which LIVE / or AUDIGY mnodell should I prefer?

Thanks in advance!

Bye,
meridoo

hi,
An SBlive!5.1 is fine card especially with kX.
(In my experience).
It's really cheap, even brand new!
cheers
