Just got word from my good mate Anton Nilsson over at Nordic Hardware, that their Creative SoundBlaster Audigy 2 ZS Platinum Pro review is out! Here's a snip.
Creative is a well-known name to everyone, so is the word SoundBlaster. The opinions regarding its products are widespread and differs a lot, and in accordance with other manufacturers of today (for example ATI, nVidia and AMD) they have their supporters and those who bitterly despise them.
Here at NordicHardware, we have almost solely positive experiences of Creative and its products, disregarding the small sidestep from the path the company took with older soundcards in combination with VIA chipset for the AMD platform.
You who have read our review of the SoundBlaster Audigy 2 Platinum eX may still remember that we were really impressed by that product, and now it?s time for its successor. However, it?s not an ?Audigy 3? that we?ve been testing. The product is Audigy 2 ZS Platinum Pro and it?s a relative small upgrade from the first Audigy 2 soundcard.
Because the product is almost the same, we have chosen a different angle of our review this time and we will concentrate more on how the card behave for the gamer and the DVD fanatic rather than for the musician that creates music in the basement.
