Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A good no-frills card
I was looking for a basic card that works under Linux and has better audio quality than my lousy on-board sound. This one fit the bill perfectly.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Turtle Beach Audio Card
Received this as an open box item, without documentation or installation CD. Windows XP installed as a Plug & Play item without a problem however as I had installed it in a SHARED PCI slot it had a resource conflict. When I relocated it to a non-shared slot it worked fine. By visiting the Turtle Beach website, I managed to download current audio utilities.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Big Sound for a Small Price
I've used Turtle Beach sound cards for quite some time. Their quality is superb; preferable over comparible Sound Blaster cards. Riviera provides all of the features I'm looking for in Digital Input/Output, as well as superb Legacy support (for older computer applications and games designed for DOS.) Turtle Beach online support has always been very good, as well.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Adequate performance, dishonest marketing
The card was easy to install and so far seems to work with all applications tested. However, several software titles that are clearly promised on the outside of the box, including "Record Producer LE, Music Write LE, and SoundCheck" are not on the installation disc. This is simply not honest. In the future I'll prefer to do business with a company that delivers what they promise.





Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Couldn't get it to work
Buy a Sound Blaster Audigy. This card wouldn't work after hours of trying. The SB card took two minutes to install.
