Creative SX-Fi for TV, home theater and PS4 estimated launch 3rd qtr! “During a brief meeting with Mr Sim at CES 2019, The Straits Times was shown a prototype of a Super X-Fi media box, called Sxfi TV. This media box has two HDMI ports - one input and one output - and four USB ports. Users...

So there is no way to plug my optical cable from my PS4 into the computers optical “in” and then pass that signal back out via the computers USB to the SX-Fi amp? Well crap!

I’m not computer savvy, but there has got to be a way to pass the Dolby 5.1 signal from the PS4 optical through a computer and out to the SX-Fi via USB. Not ideal in any way, but should be possible. Anyone know how to do this?

It can only connect via USB, so seems intended to be a portable DACs/amp. Trying to see how to get 5.1 dd from the PS4 to it to use for gaming as it seems like it would be great for gaming. Hopefully someone here will know a way!

Agreed! Gaming and movies would have been a better use for the device...maybe they are trying to get a larger market demographic? In any event. Is there a way to pass the PS4 DOlby Digital 5.1 audio via optical to a computer and then pass it through and out via USB to the SX-Fi? I ask cause i’m...

I checked Sparkos website and i've heard nothing but good things about him and his products, but $240.00 to replace the X7 op amps with Sparkos is a bit steep for me. In addition I wouldn't/ couldn't ask him to discount his products for me. If they were $120.00 or $140.00 for the full set I...

here's a link to another thread here on Head-Fi that has some information that should help you (Link). Also, no soldering needed...it's as easy and straight forward a swap you will do! Here's a link that will show you where the access panel on the X7 is (X7 op-amp access) You will need matched...

FYI - Massdrop has Burson SS V5i Op Amps (link). They are $40.00 for a matched pair of singles and $45.00 for a matched pair of duals. So for $85.00 you can upgrade your X7!

Has any one bought anything from here https://www.blinq.com/search/go?w=Sennheiser%20Headphones ? Looks like you can find some deals...saw several sennheisers at a pretty good price. I found this searching through sennhesiers website look for a headset for my son so seems legit. I ordered a set...

Agreed, where are the open back’s! So do these have any relation to HD 650’s or something?

How do the GS600’s compare to the Game Ones or PC360’s...if you have any experience with those?

Thanks for the response...i’ve Edited the post with connections and settings to help trouble shoot. Thanks again

Hey guys. I’ve recently got a Soundblaster X7 and AKG K712’s and although overall gaming experience is improved it seems to be lacking in regards to competitive FPS play (lately Destiny 2 pvp). I’ve been looking around for settings to optimize positional cues and footsteps especially, but really...

MLE, you are so far ahead right now the risk’s are minimal. You have proof of concept, evident by this board that’s been going on for what 6+/- years, and a community of support to help in the early stages. This is a huge head start in any startup! Remember one of the biggest obstacles to...

Hey guys, Need help. I'm setting up a secondary PS4 and was looking to do an Astro Mix amp (TR) or maybe the Turtle Beach TAC (?), but I haven't seen much mentioned on them. I do remember that the 2011 Mix amp was the best as it produced the least amount of noise. My questions basically are...
