Asus Xonar DX vs Creative Sound Blaster Z

[Frankie_Xenon]

So recently I have been looking into purchasing a sound card. I narrowed down my choices and it comes out as Xonar DX and sound blaster Z. From what I see on the website, the specs exactly the same. But there must be some performance difference that I do not know of. So im here to ask and see if you guys know which sound card is more "bang for the buck", in terms of performance and reliability. At the moment, i do not own any sound cards.

Sound blaster Z is the best bang for the buck, I'm using both on different computers, and when it comes to rendering some .flp files, Creative BEAST every other brands you can imagine.

Is there any other significant differences along with flp files?

The quality is much better, the sound is even more clear and ''crystalized'' with Sound Blaster. I'm producing music since one year and Creative will always be my #1 choice !
