Review on 🎧 Enhance your Audio Experience with HT OMEGA Claro Halo PCI Sound Card by Jyothish Pillai

Revainrating 5 out of 5

As good as possible!

I just received it today. Setup was quick and easy - disable onboard sound in BIOS, pop in Omega Claro, install drivers, reboot and you're done. The sound is excellent in both 2.1 speakers and headphones, clear and crisp. You can really tell the difference between an onboard audio codec and an onboard audio codec, even if you're not a discerning audiophile. I only heard it crackle loudly once in Battlefield 4. I hope this doesn't become an issue like the XONAR ST I've owned before. and recently died. The software and customer support also seem solid on the HT OMEGA, but we'll find out. I'll come back to edit this if anything goes wrong.

Pros
  • CMI8788/PCI Oxygen HD audio processor
Cons
  • poorly thought out
