Strengths:
sounds great
better than my old top dollar sound card
easy to configure software
upto 7.1 channels
controls, through usb, actualy control the pc volume mutes etc
if you cant add a sound card this is one of the few options you have and you sure you cant beat the price !!
Weaknesses:
with wires comming off 3/4 sides it doesnt fit well anywhere to make it reasonably easy to reach the controls

creates a wiring mess
Summary:
cant go wrong for the price in my opinion
the sound is great
its a cool small black box with buttons and blue leds whats not to love

Good with a few caveats

Strengths:
- Allows monitoring of recordings (which is why I purchased it)
- Good sound
Weaknesses:
- Plugging in headphones doesn't mute the speakers (tried it with two different sets of headphones)
- When audio is playing through the adapter, the power light flashes, and there's no way to disable it that I've been able to find, short of a piece of electrical tape to cover it (who was the genius who came up with this feature?)
Summary:
I bought this unit as a quick and dirty solution, as my onboard audio wasn't allowing me to hear line-in audio while recording. Seems like I traded some advantages for some disadvantages, but on the whole the unit's okay.
