Sound Blaster

Good day fellow users. I currently have the Logitech Z906 connected to my PC through the Sound Blaster Z's TOSLINK port. I just recently got my hands on some sweet material; Rush's 2112 and Jethro Tull's Aqualung on 24-bit; for each, I have the stereo, quad and surround (5.1) files. My...

Hi! I have a PC with Creative Sound Blaster Omni 5.1, I use Superlux HD 668B headphones for video production. The thing is the volume is too high, and lowering it in Windows reduces dramatically the dynamics of it (using win7) I thought of buying a cheap headphone amp and use it on very low...

I just built a new pc and I bought the Asrock Fatal1ty X370 Professional Gaming mobo. I installed Realtek High Definition Audio and Sound Blaster Cinema 3 from the motherboard's support site and it worked fine... That is, until I reinstalled windows (and essentially wiped my hard drive). Now for...

I have a set of 2.1 Klipsch Pro Media speakers on my computer using SoundBlaster Z card and driver. There is an issue where the right speaker emits a loud popping sound, almost like a zapping noise, when the volume is high or when there is a sudden loud noise. I am able to avoid this most of...

Hi, I just noticed recently that my sound coming through my 5.1 speaker setup sounded a bit lacking. So when I did a sound test on the speakers, I put my finger on each speaker to feel the vibration. As I was going through the test I didn't feel any vibration on the left speaker but I still...

I'm having a hard time figuring out my problem here... Hoping someone can help. I have my speakers hooked up to the back of the pc directly into the sound card. My headphones are plugged into the front of my computer. Even with my headphones plugged in, the audio is only coming out of my...

Thinking of getting the hd 6xx from massdrop. I have a creative sound blaster zx with 600 amp headphone amplifier. I was wondering, do I need an external amp for this setup? and if I do, what would you recommend to get? Main usage will be video gaming(not competitive as i own audio technica ath...

Hi all, So I've put myself in a little pickle. My current set up on my computer: I have a Soundblaster X7 connected to 2 EMU XM7 bookshelf speakers and a 10 inch Polk subwoofer (PSW10). I just was just gifted the Audio engine A5+, 8 inch audio engine subwoofer (S8), and the Audio engine D1...

First, the relevant components: Creative Sound Blaster ZxR Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 Ti MARANTZ SR5011 Receiver So at the moment I've got my PC hooked up to the receiver with an optical cable from the sound card. However, I just read that HDMI can pass higher resolution audio than optical...

Due to the front headphone jack on my computer being broken, I have been using the external sound card that came with my g430 headphones. However, it is starting to give out, so I bought the Sound Blaster RX sound card to replace it. However, the new sound card somehow manages to be much worse...

I am looking for a headset/headphone to pair with Creative Sound Blaster ZxR sound card just for gaming, as I have a pair of studio monitor for music. I am thinking of getting the Astro A40 TR, any recommendations?

Does anyone know if there is a patch or something for the Sound Blaster Z that will allow you to run a 4.1 system correctly. In the software settings, the only options I have are for 2.1 and 5.1 So I don't think they are playing properly. I'm using the Altec Lansing AD745 speakers. I'm running...

Hi, I have just added a sound blaster Z to my motherboard. I am using windoews 10. Was previously using Nvidia High definition audio built into the motherboard. My speakers are Logitech Z623. the left speaker plugs into the sub via RCA. The right speaker has the on/off, volume and base control...

I want to buy the oem version of the sound blaster z sound card, to solely use with headphones through an optical connection. The card would be seated between two gpu's. Would the oem version that doesn't have the shroud for emi shielding be okay, or do you think there would be interference? Is...

I am attempting to connect my Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium to my Insignia IS-HC040917 then out to my Monoprice 5.1 Channel Home Theater Satellite Speakers & Subwoofer. Is this possible? This is all new to me, I typically just plug the speakers into the soundcard, but these speakers only have...

I have no idea how exactly to phrase this, so I apologise for the weird title. What happens is that my volume level doesn't change accordingly to when I plug in and out my earphones, and I don't know whether this sort of settings are supposed to be default or not. Personally speaking I prefer to...

Hi. I'd like to run an optical audio signal from my cable box into a Sound Blaster Z and out to my 5.1 computer speakers. I have a Blu-ray burner in my computer. I'm not finding much help from Creative customer support. Any help would be appreciated! Rick

So I've had a problem many times where the firmware of my Sound Blaster Recon3D Omega Wireless would go corrupt on startup, and via a workaround I would be able to fix the issue by forcing it to reinstall its firmware...

I have a Sound Blaster Live USB external sound card (# SB0490) that I have migrated from an WIN XP machine to a WIN 10 desktop. Creative Support is ignoring me, and my request for their forum access has been "pending" for days, so I'm here. The product is listed "beyond end-of-product life"...

Hi! Was wondering if this external sound card is a good match for this headset that I plan to get for Xmas. My motherboard, whatever it is has terrible on-board sound and if I'm going to be using a $250AUD headset I'll chip in and get an external sound card to boost the performance as well...
