We Have To Take a Lot Of Factors Into Consideration Here,
A 7.1 Speakers And a Sound Card Are Of Not That Much Use Until The Sound Has been Decoded In That Format Which Is Absolutely Nil For Now as Neither DVD Or Vcd(Out Of The Question) Provided 7.1 Encoding......The Difference would also depend on the Cards Decoding Capability (Be It Onboard or an Additional Sound Card).....So Considering The Factors The Diff For Now Would Not Be Much as Investing In a Platinum Audigy Zs 2 Would Be "Almost" The same as Going For a Onboard One.....but Yea The Eax and Other Sound Certifications Do Matter as The Sounds Encoded In This Formats Will Only Be Enjoyed On The Supportive Sound Cards
@coolarunkumar21.....Since U Alreasy Have The Opinions Here.....7k Is a Great Budget For a 5.1(So Altec Included As Well Ahhhhhhh
) But Since U kinda Asked For a 2.1 Opinion The VS4121 Is A good Choice Over The Others
Massive Bass and Stunning Performer.....So Altec Here Too
