It must be understood that everything is subjective and depends on the equipment. The card was connected by analog cord to an old $300 Japanese amplifier plus $600 English speakers. Connected after using creative ZXR/ 1 impression - the sound is like from a Nokia push-button phone 2nd impression - high detailing of music, but realized by an alien mind, which does not know the very concept of composition. All the backing, all those chimes and taps in the background come forward on a par with the main part. And if a gamer enjoys the details of the sounds of the environment, then the music lover will be upset by such a presentation of the musical scene, listening to the same Depeche Mode or even 2022 rock and, in general, any record of the beginning of the century is unrealistic. Modern arrangements no matter what, preferably simpler 3rd impression - there is no bass at all, the sound is "digital" cold, all improvers can add bass, again the bass will thump on its own in isolation from the music Total - if I did not know how it might sound on the ZXR, then maybe. I kept it for myself, but this is unbearable after the "highest card" So 24 bits are enough for me, and I returned 32 to the store
