Fried my soundcard - what should I replace it with?

[Hobgoblin11]

right, havin recently managed to fry my sound card, it is now completely buggered. I think it was because I play my drums to it, so it is always maxed out.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

What I need to know is, what is a decent quality sound card, how much are they, and will it burn out? I am looking for under ÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãâã100 if possible, i dont really know what is realistic for them.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Any suggestions?

Creatives seem to be the way to go.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Depends what you want, good sound or better sound.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Can get from as cheap as 10 quid but can cost alot more.

Thanks for the help guys.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

To add a little bit more info.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Im looking for something that is primarily LOUD, thats has a good pre-amp (I think :? ) and that wontburn up at those kinds of volumes. Secondly, I think sometime in the not-so-distant future, I wanna get a 5.1 system (dont have th money for a 7.1), so i also need to think bout that

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

good sound quality is also key, but not quite as crucial as being able to cope with very high volumes.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Any more suggestions?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

thanks guys
