Creative Sound Blaster X4 (70SB181500000)

Full immersion

Creative Sound Blaster X4 is an external 7.1-channel USB Type-C audio card with a focus on 3D sound. It implements three surround sound technologies at once: physical Dolby Digital Live for home theaters, virtual Super X-Fi Headphone Holography for headphones, and universal Sound Blaster Surround Virtualization. It is proposed to find the optimal solution experimentally.

Convenient management

The audio card delivers a dynamic audio range of 114dB and a sampling rate of 24-bit/192kHz. The built-in amplifier is capable of driving even headphones with an impedance of up to 600 ohms. You can connect a stereo headset with one paired plug, or with two separate ones. A separate button is responsible for quickly turning off the microphone, and a large wheel is responsible for adjusting the volume.

talk enough

The SmartComms Kit software provides two-way noise reduction during calls — it reduces your background noise and the background noise of the other person. And when you are silent, it automatically turns off the microphone. In turn, the CrystalVoice function makes the voice clearer, including by canceling the echo in the room.

Ears on top

Fans of multiplayer shooters will definitely appreciate the SXFI Battle Mode, which allows you to understand the direction and distance to the enemy by sound. And the Scout Mode feature amplifies the quiet sounds of the enemy, such as footsteps or reloading weapons. In addition to computers with Windows and macOS, Creative Sound Blaster X4 is also compatible with PS4, PS5 and Switch game consoles.
