Recently, I purchased the Sound Blaster X-fi Go! Pro, a small USB sound device for about $40. This is one of Creative's recent products; I had hoped that it would allow for a cheap improvement in sound quality. However, I have noticed that I seem to get pops and crackles while listening to CD playback more often than when using my Realtek onboard sound. Also, just now, while listening to the song "Silver****" on the Smashing Pumpkins' Siamese Dream album, I noticed a sort of buzzing noise during the quieter parts of the song. It is also clearly present during "Luna". That buzzing is not present if I use the onboard sound.
Is it safe to assume that this is an issue with the Creative device? I have the latest drivers installed.
