Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Surround 5.1 USB
PC soundcards haven’t seen much improvement since the release of Creative’s X-Fi technology. That’s because Creative apparently owns this market sector, at least the gamer and multimedia side. Sure, there is M-Audio and Terratec, but those brand names are known for their semi-pro soundcards, rather than consumer products. A couple of days ago, Creative finally announced a new X-Fi model (no new generation?).
Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Surround 5.1 is considered to be the first USB 2.0 audio solution that provides users with the easiest upgrade from basic, onboard audio (which isn’t that bad, by the way) to the premium Xtreme Fidelity (X-Fi) audio experience for their PCs and notebooks. All you need to do is connect the Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Surround 5.1’s to your computer or notebook via the USB port and the sleek black box takes care of your MP3 and iTunes music, enhancing the quality and making you feel like in the middle of your own personal concert.
The sleek black box knows how to handle cinematic sound and game sound fx as well. It allows you to get immersed in full cinematic surround sound while watching the latest HD movies or downloaded videos, while Creative's EAX ADVANCED HD effects provides realistic game play.
The X-Fi Surround 5.1 USB works with all kinds of speaker systems, plus gamers can rest assured that their headphones will sound outstandingly better. It seems that Creative keeps this new product exclusively for Singapore at the moment, retailing for $99.00.
