No problem. Yeah, it would be such a letdown if they decided to block usage of the SXFI Amp. Interesting that you mention the Air, though. I wonder how that would work with it? The Air allows for wired USB connection to a PC for multichannel sound, so I suspect you'd hook it up to the SXFI...

As far as I understand it, you can only plug either an SXFI Amp or an SXFI TX transmitter into the USB ports; I don't believe an analog connection will be available. The reason for this is that the SXFI TV box itself won't do any SXFI processing. Rather, it just acts as a pass-through to grab...

Looks like SXFI Theater headphones were added to Creative.com recently: https://us.creative.com/p/super-x-fi/creative-sxfi-theater Hopefully the SXFI TV box isn't too far off.

Although a bit soft/blurry, I agree it looks like it says "Creative G3"

That stinks. Are they at least offering an option to download your images before they completely shut down so you can relocate them somewhere else?

I just noticed that the SXFI amp is on sale on Creative's site. Not sure how long ago this started, but definitely worth a look if you've been considering it: CREATIVE SXFI AMP - 7% OFF - $139.99 (Reg. $149.99)

I just noticed that the SXFI amp and G6 are both on sale on Creative's site. Not sure how long ago this started, but definitely worth a look if you've been considering either: CREATIVE SXFI AMP - 7% OFF - $139.99 (Reg. $149.99) SOUND BLASTERX G6 - 19% OFF - $129.99 (Reg. 159.99)

Oh whoops, what I meant was were you the one who posted at r/SoundBlasterOfficial. I had just read the post there before commenting here. :)

Yes. Did you post to that to r/SoundBlasterOfficial as a feature request? It's a good idea, hopefully u/Creative_Ryan will respond.

Be sure to check if the TV's optical out is 5.1 or not. Some TV's only output stereo 2.0.

Not sure how much my input will help in this, but I go PS4 -> AVR (via HDMI) -> G6 (via Optical) and occasionally I will hear the robotic/digital static. Firmware updates have seemed to reduce it, but it still pops up from time to time. I notice it on RDR2 on occasion, and it will even...

That's cool, it will be good to know your thoughts as well. No, I've no idea on the wireless. I haven't looked much further into this since existing reviews/impressions of these and the SFXI amp are rather divisive.

I too don't feel I'm much of an expert at detecting sonic differences between pads, but from my time with them so far, they basically sound the same. That said, I do find the gel pads to seal a bit better with my glasses, especially on my left ear. And yeah, they're cool (almost cold) when I...

And here I thought I might've done something wrong. When I tried line-out once to my Magni 2U, I noticed I had to adjust the volume on the G6 in addition to the Magni 2U. Isn't that abnormal for a line-out? My understanding was that a line-out jack will typically output a signal at a fixed...

In the bolded statements above, I know you're referring to output over SPDIF-Direct. I just want to confirm, though, that when using the G6 and SBX, either with headphones directly connected to the G6, or the SBX mix being piped out via the line out, will 32bit/96kHz be ok to use with...

New driver and firmware released for the Sound BlasterX G6 today. Both can be found HERE. From the reddit post where I saw this mentioned, here's the list of fixes / updates: Software: Fix BSOD issue with certain USB hubs and connections Improve G6 page load time after hotplug Add controls...

Just got off chat with Creative where I asked the following questions: Is the NanoBoom extendable or fixed? (this may be common knowledge, but I'm personally not familiar with these kinds of mics) Answer - Fixed. What Bluetooth codecs are supported? Answer - SBC and AAC. I'm really curious...

I agree very much with both of those sentiments! Despite the Mobius only receiving 2 channel stereo from the PS4, you definitely want to send it full range audio. And yeah, Ballistics is my go-to preset most of the time. I feel it adds a nice bump to the low-end without getting in the way of...

Thanks for the mention. $64.99, no tax, free shipping. Curiosity got the better of me, so I snagged one.

I thought you and @Fegefeuer were discussing earlier in the thread that 5.1 sounded better than 7.1 (on console, at least) because those additional 2 channels sounded kinda fake and over-processed?
