Review on ๐ŸŽถ External USB Sound Card - CREATIVE Sound BlasterX G6 by Siu Young แ Œ

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A great option for this money, I definitely recommend it!

The first week I got used to a completely new sound in general. Before that, I didnโ€™t use sound cards and limited myself to the raiser software, which boosts the sound in krakens quite well, and during the transition there was a strong dissonance, in which I stopped understanding how and what should sound at all. Itโ€™s a little unclear what the sound volume relay (suddenly) is responsible for on a third-party anything. Let me explain with an example: having maxed out the bass timbre, at different volume levels of the slider in FB - the sound occurs in different ways. (IMHO, the most optimal is to set the level in the region of 85-90% in FB and 30% percent on PC.) Logically, by raising the volume (no matter where), the volume of all frequencies should increase proportionally, but if this is done in FB, then only high and mid frequencies, and the lower frequencies are completely eaten (and vice versa, if you lower the volume, then the lower ones remain at the same level and the high and medium frequencies are cut off, which leads to a booming bass). Apparently, these are the features of the incoming sound and the creative software processing system. Be prepared for the fact that the usual sound of music will change so much that you will have to create separate profiles for different genres (for blackbird and 4lientic their own, for slipknot and korn - their own). Different performers fill up different parts in different ways, this is especially noticeable in electronics. Well, a couple of times the sound flew out when waking up from sleep: there was a switch to the monitor speakers and the constant sound of the perforator turned on, which did not frail so cheer up everyone in the room (but this is most likely a Windows problem, not a card).

Pros
  • When Jesus gave sight to the blind, Creative restored hearing. +Sound + Flexible configuration of many profiles, subprofiles and an equalizer in subprofiles (Yes, you will understand for 2 days to understand how everything works, what it is responsible for and how and what it affects, if you have not had experience using and setting up audio before) +Volume. At maximum volume, my krakens turn into good such speakers with the effect of vibration around the room. + Judging by the description and reviews of professionals, this X-6bit can pump any headphones at all. I only have 2.0 krakens on my hands and I'm sure that normal people don't use them as an assessment of sound reference, but the fact that this card danced significantly higher than the ordinary headphone capabilities is a big plus.
Cons
  • -Doesn't bring coffee to bed. from 2022: -it is not very clear how to overcome the disease, but every time you turn on the PC, you need to disconnect from the power supply and reconnect it. then the sound goes to full, and before that, as if something does not turn on.
