I only listen in direct mode. For the money, there is nothing to complain about, the G6 turned out to be a bright and interesting sound. I especially want to note the built-in headphone amplifier: it is discrete, it even pumps oak dt990pro at 250 ohms. The card can be used with a smartphone or taken with you to work. Some pros: Great sound in headphones. Direct mode without enhancers. Its cons: As always with Creative, raw drivers. Clicks are heard: I installed the latest firmware, they increased the size of the output buffer. The clicks are less frequent, but they are there.
