Recently, I found two ISA cards on Yahoo Auctions Japan with poor descriptions, An Addonics A151-910 with YMF718-s and a Philips sound adaptor with Jazz16 chips and YMF262-R(?). They are all equipped with Yamaha OPLs, especially the Philips's looks quite solid!! I wanna try some nice SB pro/16-compatible replacements such as Audician 32 Plus, because almost all the Creative SB16 are more or less buggy in some certain aspects (true OPL, PNP, hanging note bug or noise problems), but such kind of highly evaluated all-in-one ISA sound cards are extremely rear in Japan (I've been watching Yahoo Auctions Japan over 6 months but still can't find any Audician 32 Plus)

I can't find detailed specifications or information about those two cards, so could some nice guys help me on this?

Here are the links:

The NOOB of noobs!!

The first one is going to be the same as pretty much any Yamaha card based on the same chipset. Real OPL3 integrated and pretty good compatibility.

The second one looks like some variation of a Medivision Pro Audio Spectrum card just by looking at the chips on it.

It's Media Vision, but not from the Pro Audio Spectrum line. It's from later Jazz16 line, which is SB Pro compatible.
