Question: I currently own an old Audigy 4, mostly for listening to music (FLAC files usually). Will I hear a great improvement in audio quality w/this card?
Document: I have a new pc build and just added this card. I thought my new onboard card was great until I installed the ZXR. After a night of listening to music and calling friends on Skype I have no regrets on buying this card other than cost and concern related to the reliability of the hard ware over the long haul after noting several other reviews on reliability. If this card lasts as long as some of my old sound cards then I might consider it 5 start purchase.
Upgraded from a 7 year old X-Fi Xtreme Music edition card that I had purchased in late 2005 at my local Best buy. The ZXR brought my Senheiser 280 HD Pros alive. As a home audio enthusiat I am hearing things I never heard before in all my favorite games, music and movies. The bass is as smooth as a babies bottom and the highs are as clear as the sound you would hear in a perfectly calibrated IMAX theater. This is all thanks to the Burr Brown caps.
I ran an Audigy 2 ZS/Grado SR-80 for a decade, and the ZXR is not night and day better than the old Audigy 2 ZS for running music (ZS still works).
It produced noticeably better sound quality than the recon 3D sound blaster card I purchased over a year ago. The ZXR is a step up from the ZX and Z. It produces crystal clear sound reproduction with zero distortion. It is also about 15% louder than the Z (I have to decrease the volume on my Logitech X540 speaker control module). The ZXR has a lot of meat to it, particularly when gaming and listening to music.
I love hear high quality sound, harmonic voices, fidelity , definition an volume in each voice and instrument, of course i like gaming too.....this card make it possible my dream on both worlds, my Logitech Z-5500 , now knows its love , this card lol, its all you need, what can i say?
I've not had the best experiences with Creative in the past, but I figured I'd give it another try. It has not turned out well. My sound will distort and switch channels when audio is being played (can be a game, music, video, etc). This is usually accompanied with a crackling sound. I downloaded the latest drivers, clean install, etc. I'm using a optical out to a Logitech Z-5500 sound system.
I couldn't stand it. I purchased the Creative Soundblaster ZxR and its incredible! The only way I can explain it is like back in the day I would hear people say they have a great TV and you'd go over there and the picture was snowy... Dah!
Let me start off by saying this is a great product. It replaced my already good ASUS EssenceSTX and is absolutely on par sound quality wise. The Audio Control Module is a useful tool, not only for the beam microphones, but the extra jacks in an easy to reach location is awesome. My only gripe is the software. For starters they removed CMSS 3D. The SBX Pro Studio Surround is not nearly as effective for positional audio. The second thing I dislike is the headphone control.
You know, you just can't trust anyone today... ! ! ! If you are not that particular... or just don't know how good something should sound, then you are better off with the new Audigy Card... if not, I really can't help you. I really think I'm going to have to buy a new Audio/Video receiver with all the bells and whistles, then and only then will this Creative Card sound better.
Sound and features are perfect for recording high-quality audio (music). Only complaint: they could make the labeling of the outputs more clear. As it is, it's very easy to mistake the line out for the speaker out.
Answer: That is what I had awhile back. You will hear a different. There is no more hissing or noise in the background. The copper wall in the card that divide the circuits is a plus to prevent the noise and hissing.
