Review: Good product - I love how they build it
Review: Great sound card! - I upgraded from my AE-5 to this AE-9 and you can hear the diffrence, it's nicer and clean but soo much more expensive. The Command Center app that Windows uses doesn't seem to need an update at all, it picked up on it and was compatible from first run. No annoying software swapping and reboots. I'm a gamer so I play for long periods, and after like 30 minutes the card feels warm, like a mid setting to cook an egg. but my AE-5 gets kind of warm too so it seems to put me at ease to find them both do a similar thing but ya it's slightly warmer than my AE-5. I found no concerns online saying the card has failed from this many times but there was one case I came across where someone new to things might of messed up for other reasons and or had a bad factory build, defective in other words. but I guess I'll find out since his card died in like a year, and I just started using my card but guess what if my card dies and I find out what it was or if it's a weird unknown reason I will update this review with what I know, but in the case I don't update then the card has been good to me and I'm enjoying it with my DT 1990 Pro well, good luck to the buyers.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is there sound latency with this product? If so, how much latency is there?**
A: Depends on how many plugins your project is using, but it's very low even with complex tracks.

**Q: can i use a goxlr with it ?**
A: Only if you split your mic/headset to 2 separate inputs/outputs as you can only use 1 device for each input/output. Since the goxlr is usb only and not compatible with a toslink cable you cannot connect the two for a single output. I would say if you don't need to mix your audio on the fly and want an upgrade solely for audio input and output quality from a goxlr, then the ae-9 is better for both mic input as it's balanced(usb is unbalanced), and a much higher audio output quality. unfortunately not a balanced headphone/headset plug, but have had no issues like static or feedback from the non balanced output even at max volume. I use my ae-9 with my shure sm7b (with cloudlifter and phantom power on), and my sennheiser hd650s with no issues.

**Q: How long is the ACM cable?**
A: No more than 40 cm.

**Q: does this card support balanced audio?**
A: For the mic input yes, for the audio output no unless using toslink to separate dac

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Expensive? You bet. Worth Every Penny!!!!!!!
*by P***R on November 1, 2024*

Playing ROON into the SB AE-9 is as though hearing my music collection for the first time! The DSD files leap to life. Even the 16 Bit 44 KHz files have renewed vibrancy. My settings are all Native - NO DSP. Frightfully expensive but worth it!
