The CMS sound on the Sierra games are definitely not as good as the
Adlib sound. Sierra does exploit the stereo effect on the CMS
to good effect. Some people might confuse stereo with good sound. :-)
I have an old SB with both Adlib and CMS emulation and I did some
comparison with my Sierra games when I first got it.
