Been talking to creative, they're sending me a review sample LE too (for most people I'd reccommend the value of the regular X7, unless the LE status, color, and headphone output impedance matter to you). If it doesn't require a special soundcard or expensive software, maybe you can pm me how to do a quick RMAA test on my unit?
Looking forward to this comparison, Evshrug. Your excellent initial review of the X7 is what drove me to buy one for my battlestation.
