For six months - 2 (TWO Karl!) breakdowns - at first it simply ceased to be detected in the system - the software solution to the problem did not help, because it was the hardware itself (the relay stopped working when the headphones were connected), took it under warranty for 45 days fooled their heads and could not determine what with it, they gave out a NEW one a month ago, - yesterday, on 05/18/2022, the sound disappeared, just like that, in the middle of the game, a reboot, reinstalling the software, reconnecting the card did not help . That's it, the curtain, I've had enough of Creativity. P. S. Before that, there were 2 Creative X-Fi Elite Pro cards - it worked for 10 years!, the connector was just outdated, after replacing the platform, I had to sell it . and a simple Creative X-Fi HD - almost 2 years of work and OK, also sold, man is still has been using it for a while. The sound is mediocre, the software is buggy . Headphones that I used-Tonino Lamborghini Spectrum One (12022r), FiiO f9 PRO with Alo Audio Smocky Litz cable (12500+ 6800 cable) and Logitech G-Pro 1st revision (where the sensitivity is 108db) - 8000r ., on these not very expensive and not very cheap devices, the card did not show itself at this price, before that there was a Chinese DAC on CirrusLogic 4398 and there the implementation was better than here, but Iโm generally silent about the old Elite Pro . With hearing, everything ok, Iโve been fond of music for a long time (as a music lover, with a drop of audiophilia), all kinds of audio equipment (High-res players, smartphones with a dedicated DAC and other amplifiers, receivers, CD players, etc.) cost crossed the mark of $ 3500, so I know what I'm writing about . This is the trouble-brainchild of marketers.
