I am willing to buy Xonar, question is, is it going to work properly? So far
I can see it satisfies me, as long as it is not troublesome. I just want
something that I can plug and play. I really don't mind wasting pcie slots,
since i have couple of them available. And i dont plan to add any other
devices to my pc so far.

That usb card appears to be quite interesting as well. I doubt it offers
good hardware performance, doesnt it? I mean, it probably procees everything
on cpu, than just outputs to usb card, using some standart USB sound driver?
Like usb-audio.

Thanks, i appeciate your replies guys.
