Neil’s Messy Basement has been a really (and we mean a really, really) long time coming!
This episode of This edition of the show is all about audio on PC. It started as a review of the Sound BlasterX AE5 sound card, and became so much more. It even required a special doctors visit (seriously!).

Much more is covered as well and most will come out knowing a lot more than they did going in. Suffice to say, we really liked the Sound BlasterX AE5, and the big question that needed answering is why – so here we go!
