I bought this card like in another life because the Crosshair mobo
(also bought in another life) onboard 1/8" audio connectors aren't 
worth a shit (continuous crackling and things) making music work 
IMPOSSIBLE.  This card has the 1/4" jacks as well!!! Going through 
my things I just found the bundled pair of small pliers and these 3 
chips. Very nice idea for the pliers, maybe other makers could start 
bundling other computer-handy tools, bits-&-pieces, cpu-paste and stuff :-))

BUT...

p-11 says the (supplied) 3 chips will "change the tonal characteristics"
without so much as giving a hint as to in what way, something one 
would want to know BEFOREHAND!  Are all manufacturers this freakin'
stupid?
