Starting with lossless music playback, we found that the on-board sound was a bit closed vocally and overwhelmed by the bassline when we played Nick Cave's 'Red Right Hand', while the Creative was a lot more even across the spectrum and sounded the way we were familiar with. Once installed into our system, and running Creative's (spotty) installation software, we pitted the Titanium HD against the on-board HD sound of an AMD motherboard (Realtek ALC1200 chipset) and a high-end Marantz NA7004 digital player. In addition, the card comes with a dedicated 3.5mm headphone jack and microphone. The card also features an optical digital input and output, which are shared with RCA inputs. If you're looking to use this soundcard as part of a home theatre PC or as the basis for a home recording studio, then you'll be interested to know the card has two sets of dedicated stereo RCA inputs - one in and one out.

Creative boasts that the Titanium has an audiophile DAC - a Burr-Brown PCM1794 according to Wikipedia - and is the first to include the THX TruStudio PC standard designed to 'bring the same great audio experience found in live performances, films and recording studios to the PC'.

The Titanium HD is a high-end PCI Express x1 card, and includes features friendly to home cinemas and home recordists.
