An interesting look at built-in motherboard audio solutions has been posted at Extremetech. They include an AOpen vacuum tube board.

Thanks for linking to the printer version instead of the "5 paragraphs over 25 pages" verision.

Nice article.
The conclusions are in line with what I was expecting, including the controversial AOPen mobo, except for the SoundMAX chip. It fairs very good for an onboard chip.
