Wiz,

Sound Blaster Live is probably still the top sound card on the market. It has 128 bit sound and sounds real good as long as the speakers ar good.

You can't go wrong w/ Sound Blaster. Its not the most expensive and not the cheapest but over all its the best sound card in my opinion. Unless you want to pay out the arse for a custom built one.

In the US it's around $100 don't know what that translates to in British Pounds though. And that is if you stick with the basic soundcard Creative Labs(Soundblaster) Has put together a couple of different packages around that one card and the cost ranges fro $100 to $200.

Good luck
