hello guys! I have an issue which i would like to discuss with you here.   I use the X-Fi Titanium 7.1 PCIe for 2 years+ now, and i can't recommend it enough :) it is GREAT! playing csgo most of the time, it helps a lot at positional information and makes everything sound so good from music...

hello guys.. im a csgo player with titanium 7.1 (with SR850). i play for a long time with the same settings.. and there are things that i think that can improve. the thing that makes me wonder is.. is Dolby Digital live encoder should be on for the game? (the sound of movies with it sounds...

i have a problem, i have SR850 + Titanium 7.1. when i point Creative Alchemy to my CSGO folder it makes my game sound ugly, everything echoed and sounded like my sound card was on the brink of burning. i try to make the game support 3d sound as you explained, can you elaborate on how to set...

Quote: is there possibility the card is corrupted or fake? cause i dont get the 7 channels nor quad or 5, only 2. and yes, i tested it exactly as this guide that you've shown, same effects as with the console launcher.. i think im going to cramp this card way up this store's butthole.  ...

the thing is, im pretty sure my hearing is fine, but what im not sure, is about how ive setup the sound system. since when i check the sound through the creative console: http://i.imgur.com/dCfVKcB.png i can hear a sound only when the bar is on the top left and the top right speaker sign...

thanks for the replies fellas.. ill try to answer as much as possible:   @raband - i do hear and can decide clearly which side the voice is coming from in these tracks, using stereo. @the - my headphones themselves are stereo, either i cant set this up well or it isnt possible...

just bought the Samson SR850, using it with the X-Fi Titanium 7.1 and ill tell you one thing is for certain.. i have a lot of experience in competitive fps, and there is nothing better for it than STEREO! no 5.1 no 7.1 or any other dolby ****. the only way my ears can decide where some...

hey guys, i bought the x-fi Titanium (non-hd) 7.1 and its fantastic, but i have some problems to set it up, the first one is the microphone doenst work, where should i jack it (i know it should be on the last blue jack) but it still doesnt work, any suggestions? besides, should i delete the...

Quote: i already ordered SR850, and ill soon buy creative SB Titanium 7.1 to go with it.. AD700 is still an option for me, but there will be no reason for me to waste money on it if the SR850 will do the trick for my competitive fps needs. if it wont, ill buy the AD700. which are sold...

Quote: i can stress this enough.. but man, thanks so much :) i dont have a problem to buy the 1st Titanium , it's sold in lots of stores in my country, and they are in stock. the price he sells the recon3d is good, but i think i'll prefer the Titanium's.. the problem is which one, and...

Quote: wow, thanks a lot.. yea it's the Titanium 7.1 PCI-e but there's the Sound Blaster version (the one with the closed face design), and it's said to be better, what's your opinion on that? i will probably get AD700, cause there cant be such fuss about something for no reason...

im a competitive fps gamer, and i already ordered Samson SR850, i didn't try them out yet but i think i need more then that, for my needs (CS 1.6/CSGO/QL). anyways i narrowed my options to PC350, PC360 and AD700. i want AD700 but they look like and people say they are - not comfortable...

Asus Xonar D2X.. is a little more expensive but it seems like it performs better.. does it?

Quote: thanks for the reply :) and im glad to hear they nerfed it.   would like to hear opinions on the sound card aswell, and would it fit with the headphones well

im kind of fraustrated.. and dont know what to buy. first of all, im a hardcore gamer, and yea.. i play FPS games competitively (Cs 1.6, Quakelive and CSGO when they'll nerf the dgl). im used to stereo headphones, and never knew about 7.1 and all that stuff.. i want to buy and see if it...
