I have a Terratec Sky 5.1 that uses the same Envy24HT chip as the 
M-Audio Revolution, and as long as you're only using analog outputs its 
very good. But be prepared to play a bit with alsamixer. To get digital 
out working, i had to use Alsa 0.9.7, and I still have some strange 
happenings with that. I'm very surprised of your experience with the 
SBLive, I've got two different versions of those cards working here.
