diff between audigy 2 ZS platinum and platinum pro?

[leishi85]

i have been looking to get a new sound card, and i looked at the audigy 2, but i can't tell the difference between the platinum pro and no pro.

i looked for reivews, and can't seems to find any, so i'm here asking all of u guys , what the difference is.

As far as I know aside from the price difference (last I saw the pro was like $400 and non-pro was $279, although I'm sure it's dropped since then) I think the pro offers more music mastering extras whether it's in software or hardware I'm not sure but I doubt the price difference for someone not doing mastering and multi-track recording wouldn't be justified.

that answers my question, i'm not buying this sound card to make music or anything.

just for listening purposes, i guess the ZS platinum is my choice then. YEah the price dropped a lot since. I can get it for about 90 now.

Sweet, sounds like a good deal.
