Can anyone suggest a high quality sound card from a non China
manufacturer ?

The Audigy may be suitable for your needs, and includes a lot of
features useful to the general user and gamer. For musicians, it's
off the bottom of the scale. What 's your intended use?

Have you tried an Audigy with the project kx drivers ? Very powerful! The
interface can be difficult but that kinda comes with the power

For a start it improves overall THD etc by reversing front and rear
outputs. ATM I'm experimenting with bi-amping by sending low frequencies of
a stereo source to the 'front' output and high to the 'back', with
interesting results.
