SB Audigy 2 Platinum & SB Audigy 2 Platinum ZS

[illippinno]

I recently bought the SB Audigy 2 Platinum sound card to use as a recording device for my band's music. I love the card, the sound is awesome, and the recording quality is great.

But a week after I bought the card, I saw that the new Audigy 2 Platinum ZS came out. I was looking at the specs on both, but there wasn't really much of a difference than I could tell.

Can anyone help enlighten me between the two?

That doesn't really explain much....just that it is 7.1 capable (whereas the last one was 6.1).....I'm fairly sure my 6.1 is capable of 192kHz at 24 bit sample rate, but that small difference would allow them to say, "changes in software and hardware"
