I listen to a lot of music, watch movies, and play around with audio editing.  So I'm looking at sound cards.

I plan on using Audioengine A2 speakers.  I already have a pair I use for my mp3 player, and these speakers are fantastic.

I've narrowed it down to two cards:

HT Omega

--or--

ASUS

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16829132010

The HT Omega has a PCI connection and the Asus has a Express x1 connection.
Both cards have 64bit win 7 drivers, so that shouldn't be an issue.

Comments?  Other options?
Thanks!

i dont know enough about sound to advise you either way, but if you havent done it: something i find very helpful while shopping on newegg is to look at the show all reviews page, and i scroll through looking at all the cons to see what the common complaints are when comparing similar items
