    Creative Sound Blaster X7 - Detailed Review & Impressions

    I haven't test other connections, but I can play from PC and Bluetooth (phone) at the same time. It's pretty useful actually.

    Introducing CTC Audio - Official North American Distributor of DUNU, FIDUE, and T-PEOS!

    My experience is quite the opposite. A week after I placed an order, I just wanted to know how soon they can ship my order. I've been emailing them but I got no respond whatsoever. I figured my email must sent to their junk folder or something. I got worried without knowing this thread exists...

    Sound Blaster X7 - Impressions? Thoughts?

    My complaint is BS? Well it is too loud on a 16 ohm IEMs. I had to set the volume all the way down to 10% to listen through IEMs before blowing my ear drums out and bump it back up to 70% for the speakers. Of course this gotta be a problem with my IEMs, not X7 itself, but then I wonder why they...

      If it didn't work well for you and you feel you need to return, then you should return it. I already started return process with Creative for X7 and E5....

      This is BS. So they decided to fix the impedance issues for IEM, paint it white, include bigger power supply and sell $100 more. I fixed the noise on IEM by getting an UE attenuator which is only $10 bucks.

    Sound Blaster X7 - Impressions? Thoughts?

    I ordered mine on Friday, received it yesterday. I gotta say I'm not impressed on SQ. It just doesn't right compared to Xonar Essence STX II. I will try out a different set of opamps tonight. Volume is either too loud for my IEM (I have to set volume to 10%) or too low for my 5.1 speakers...

    I can confirm there's audible hiss using DN-2000 with E5. X7 is quieter but not exactly dead silent. I also notice it is incredibly LOUD. DN-2000 was dead silent when using with Essence STX II.
