5 out of 5 stars Good product   November 21, 2008
Pei H. Yang (CA, USA)
Creative Labs USB sound blaster x-Fi.
Good sound quality with easy to setup.



4 out of 5 stars everything's good except for lag   November 16, 2008
Kenneth Chang
Using it in college so my laptop is compatible with my 5.1 speakers from home. The setup sounds great except there is a split second lag in videos, and a very noticeable lag in games. Perfect for music though


4 out of 5 stars A few problems at first   November 6, 2008
Douglas A. Mccartney (New York City, NY United States)
I had a few problems when i first downloaded X-Fi and I think this had something to do with the fact that I updated my OS to Windows XP service pack 3. Other programs on my computer also glitched after updating to Windows XP spk3. Anyway, I was missing features under the "Task" options in Creative WaveStudio 7 and the Volume controls were not responding. After contacting CreativeLabs customer service they had me download updated firmware which fixed the problem. The sound, recording, and mixing features are excellent. This soundcard is replacing Creative Audigy 2 which was pretty good in its on right and is why I stay with Creative Lab products.


4 out of 5 stars USB Sound Blaster...fits the bill   October 28, 2008
Tim (Pepperell, MA, USA)
I recently purchased the Creative Labs USB Sound Blaster X-Fi Surround 5.1 device. I was a former user of the older Live USB Sound Card. This is everything that the Live device wasn't, especially support for USB 2.0. More to the point, I needed a high quality device to drive both 5.1 Digital and 2.0 Analog audio to my A/V receiver at the same time. The 5.1 channel drives my main zone, while the 2.0 channels drive my two remote zones (using the SB headphone jack).

The Sound Blaster integrates between my Media Center PC that is used primarily as a Digital Audio and Video library. My PC has a very small profile and unfortunately the on board Audio, does not support both 5.1 and 2.0 channels at the same time. The only drawback is my HD Audio onboard components support a higher sampling rate of 192K as opposed to the Sound Blaster rate of 96K. I suspect this is due to the USB bandwidth. Personally, I cannot hear the difference.

All in all this is a very nice package that fits into my home entertainment environment. I like the black finish and that all the cables connect in the back. When will the drivers be updated to support 7.1? And the hardware to support HDMI?



5 out of 5 stars Seems great so far   October 24, 2008
CL (Brighton, CO USA)
I haven't played with the bells and whistles but it's super convenient for a laptop as a quality sound card replacement. Just a simple USB plug-in. Perfect for me.
