ASUS Xonar AE 7.1-Channel Hi-Res Sound Card | PCIe Audio

Bring more detail, separation, and control to PC audio with the ASUS Xonar AE. Built for users who can hear the difference, it delivers 7.1-channel output at up to 192 kHz/24-bit with a 110 dB signal-to-noise ratio, giving music, games, and film soundtracks more clarity than typical onboard audio. A built-in 150 ohm headphone amplifier helps drive demanding headphones with better definition and bass control, while the EMI back plate is designed to reduce static noise from internal interference. That combination matters in systems where the motherboard audio path is too noisy or too limited for serious listening. Sonic Studio adds practical control over the listening experience, making it easier to tune output for different content and headphones. For builders, creators, and enthusiasts, Xonar AE is a focused upgrade: not flashy, just better sound where it counts.
