Although it's cheap as.I don't want to throw money at something to have no effect, especially when money is tight.Sound Blaster X-Fi Surround 5.1 Pro turns your PC or notebook into a 5.1 entertainment system, featuring SBX Pro Studio technology. CREATIVE SOUND BLASTER X-FI SURROUND 5.1 - No Subwoofer sounds - Not possible to install Creative suite. So.my question is.although I don't care about 5.1 and don't even bother with it for games anymore, is it worth investing in the X-Fi 5.1 to replace the onboard or is it not going to make the slightest bit of difference. Not willing to admit it's the amp yet as I've had similar in the past with better quality coming from lower end speakers.

Must of spent hours if not days tweaking EQ's downloading new software you name it with no effect on quality (or managing to get that WOW ), until I came to the conclusion it's the On-Board sound or amp. I listen to all sorts of music form Drum n Bass through Rap to Soul etc. I currently have an old Technics amp (don't laugh) and a pair of Yamaha Ns-200 Floorstanders which I adore, but when I'm listening to music I'm just not getting that feeling I used to get years ago when I had a proper Hi-Fi setup, even listening to a friends Denon mini system with B&W's sounds sublime compared to mine.
Sorry if this an old thread but I've been crawling the net for hours now and seriously can't make my mind up.īasically I'm looking at upgrading from Biostar on-board sound to Creative X-FI 5.1, I've found one pretty cheap and it has to be cheap as I'm currently out of work, and I need USB due to no slots being available for PCI. So, can anybody chime in on why the Pro is cheaper than the HD? Does the HD offer anything on the line of sound quality that the Pro does not? Thanks in advance for any advice offered. But Other devices and laptops seem to not do the same thing.īut with the existing head and space issues regarding the Radeon Crossfire configuration I'm pretty much set on retiring the X-Fi Platinum PCI card to be replaced by one of the two USB based solutions. This may not be the sound card, but more of a computer problem in general.

Swan D1080MKII's Bookshelf Speakers (Powered)Īlso have a Pyle Pro P1001AT Hybrid Pre-Amplifier / Polk Audio Monitor Series 30'sĪs it stands right now, the Pyle amp hates the X-Fi Plat PCI, tons of line noise when plugged into. Steelseries 7H Headphones (Gaming headset) I don't do any recording, so that's not a factor. However it looks like the Pro supports 5.1, where as the HD only supports 2.1? The HD is more expensive than the Pro, which is kinda throwing me off a bit. However I'm not quite sure which I should get. I've found these two USB dac from creative and reviews seem to praise them for the most part.
Just built a new machine with two Radeon 6950's and space is pretty tight. Lookin to replace my X-Fi Platinum PCI card.
