I'm running neither the Juli@ nor the Prodigy but a Terratec Phase 22 
(using snd_envy24ht). The sound is great -- it's the best audio card I 
came across till now. Even if I pump up the volume to the maximum the 
sound is nice and clear -- but then I'm pushing the Sennheiser HD 500 to 
its limits ;-)

The FreeBSD-Wiki has some more information about the status of the 
support for the line of envy24-based cards:
