Old ISA sound cards - which is the best?

**Underclocker** · 04-09-2008, 04:34 AM

Hi,

Recently I pulled some old ISA sound cards out of a cupboard and am wondering if anyone knows which one is the best? They are: Creative SoundBlaster AWE64, Creative SoundBlaster Vibra 16XV and ESS AudioDrive ES1869. Can't seem to find any websites with comparisons on those cards.

Cheers.

*bump*

I think it's safe to say the AWE64 would be better than the Vibra, but does anyone have any idea about the ESS AudioDrive card?
