Hercules Gamesurround Fortissimo III 7.1 ... CS4624 / The Gamesurround Fortissimo III 7.1 is the first offering in its revolutionary new 7.1 channel sound card range. The Gamesurround Fortissimo III 7.1 sound card, successor to the internationally celebrated Gamesurround Fortissimo II, provides powerful, stunning PC sound over 2, 4, 5, 6 or 8 speakers. With its customizable 8-speaker configuration, Gamesurround Fortissimo III 7.1 enables users to finally enjoy the very finest environmental audio reproduction available!
