    Most of them are on-board, no card to install.

    Depends on the motherboard. Read the specs for the motherboard used in teh miniPC and it will tell you.

    You're overlooking it.

    Just as an aside... 5.1 is pointless in a car unless you want it to be a rolling theater or a show car.
    Have you looked in the FAQ yet?
    How about the Wiki?



    Under normal circumstances, a signature would go here.

    I have been entertaining the idea of replacing my on board sound of my M10000 with a ZX Aud. 2 card.

    Think I would get any better sound quality than the on board sound going to a head unit? The sound now is very loud, and clear. But it feels like mid-range bass isn't coming through, and some words are hard to understand sometimes.

    well what im most concerned about is a way to hook a sub up to the computer, and as far as i knew you needed a 5.1 card for that, but now maybe irealize im mistaken
