This is a great deal,considering that it costs $150 plus shipping at Newegg and $140 on amazon. Last time woot had it I paid $75 for it. This is only $61. And if you register for googlecheckout,you can save $10, so it's only $51. Great soundcard, makes the crappy speakers and headphones I have not so rappy. Gave them surround sound. It really is a good alternative to the X-fi monopoly on the soundcard market.

kinda, they use the newer C-Media chipset found on the ASUS Xonar.

Nice to see the Price of the AC-1 dropping, though; perhaps it'll push Creative to lower their prices to be competitive.

Only real issue I've heard about the AC-1, is that it sounds it's best when partnered with Razer's HP-1 headset.
