Hi, Are there any learned opinions out there concerning the Pro Audio
Spectrum/Pro Audio Spectrum 16 versus Sounblaster/Soundblaster Pro in
respect to their preformance? Are any major revisions upcoming? How well do
they integrate Windows 3.1? Any comments welcome! Regards, John
the Pro Audio Spectrum 16 = 16-bit audio and it has a standard SCSI port is
one advantage. Also the parent companies of the two products just settled
a lawsuit so hopefully more resources can be left to R&D rather than
lawyers. Everything I've heard most people think the Pro Audio Spectrum 16
is a winner hands down since it is completely Sound Blaster compatible + it
has 16-bit stereo audio capability and a standard scsi port.
Albert, the SCSI port might just make the difference. Thank you for your
opinion John
Albert,
The gossip here has been that the soundblaster compatibility on the
PAS-16 is less than perfect. No personal experience.

Frank,
I noticed that several people think that soundblaster pro compatibility is
not so good. It is very useful to read all the messages in the forum too
it keep my knowledge base up to date. Thanks for the update.
PAS-16 better digitized sound quality, bad game support.
SBPro, sound is'nt great…, but much better game support.
Forthcoming to a store near you (RSN): SBPro-16, with full 16 bit stereo
digitized sound…
I use a SBPro and am quite happy. I have heard the PAS-16 and it's ound is
great, but the support is'nt their yet for games.

Clarke, as I am not in a hurry, I might wait a bit and see what the
SBPro-16 will give! Thank you, John
