Review on 🎧 HT OMEGA Fenix Sound Card for PCI-Express Slots by Terry Wright

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Much cleaner than any sound card in this price range.

The card has an optical input and an optical output, which gives me the benefits I need. Analog connections are of average quality, which is not surprising given the price. One caveat: never use the bundled software on a peripheral board - go to the website and download the latest version instead. The included disc contains drivers that may give you a headache when running Windows 10. The op amp on the card is decent and sounds good in my headphones. If you want to use your computer as a standalone home theater system, you need a set of powered surround speakers. Given the quality of this card's analog output, it's worth investing in something decent like UTF8&qid= 1523218632&sr=8-7&keywords=power+surround+sound+speakers

Pros
  • There's something to it
Cons
  • Good for the most part, but...
