Default USB soundcard.

What do you think of USB sound. I think it's realy comfortable( taking it with you to a LAN party ) but what about it's quality. Can such kind of small caed support good quality? I want to buy some. Now i'm choosing between Creative and Icemat
What should i take? I prefer Iceamt more.

at first I thought you meant external soundcards like these: http://www.creative.com/products/pro...4&product=9103

I never heard or icemat before, but i would consider sennheiser. not only is their kick ass 150 series full of features and best audio in any headphones period (read reviews, they all say this thing rocks), but it also includes USB converter. Plantronics make really good DSP USB headphones too.

that's my .02 cents
