When we said that Asus makes everything back in May, we weren't joking about it -- and let it be reinforced if you just take a look at our Asus Arctic Square review published months ago. A unit of Asus' first and flagship soundcard, the Xonar D2, was in our hands for more than a month already at the time of completion of this article; which allowed us more than adequate time to throughly test this product instead of simply rushing out a review. Asus promises to deliver the ultimate in computer sound to bridge home audio systems to desktop systems, complete with a suite of Dolby and DTS sound technologies. Is it true? How awesome is this sound card? Is it worth your money? Does it compete well against Creative's sound card monopoly? We'll soon find out and show you what we think about Asus' Xonar D2, the soundcard that made itself a significant name in computer audio before it even hit the consumer market.
