Sound Blaster G3: Microsoft® Windows 10 32-bit or 64-bit, Windows 8.1 32-bit or 64-bit, Windows 8 32-bit or 64-bitI am James, a UK-based tech enthusiast and the creative mind behind Mighty Gadget, which I’ve proudly run since 2007. Passionate about all things technology, my expertise spans from computers and networking, to mobile, wearables, and smart home devices. With excellent audio performance, greater connectivity options, and smarter features, the Sound Blaster X4 is the perfect all-rounder sound card to work, learn and play from home with. The wheel controls the volume of the headphones, speakers, and microphone if they are attached. The X4 DAC is covered in a plastic shell, with a nice dark grey metallic texture which looks great and feels smooth to the touch. I am a big fan of volume dials, giving you easy control over your volume, and this is one of the reasons why I returned the Sound BlasterX G6in favour of my FiiO K5 Pro, because of the big knob. Just like the X3, this has a nice large easy to access volume dial that you can press to mute. Again, if using via USB this will integrate with the system volume. Besides, there's no need to sacrifice your room's physical space for an actual 7.1 sound system! Simply connect the Sound Blaster X3 to your computer for immersive surround sound output which is perfect for gaming sessions with friends, or to impress that special someone during movie nights.

Overall, the sound quality is excellent. It is superior to the onboard audio of my MSI MEG motherboard, and I would say the performance is comparable to FIIO that I have been using the past few months. I also prefer it to the Creative Sound Blaster Z SE, though I mainly just prefer the convenience of an external DAC vs an internal soundcard. SXFI This requires an additional app to be installed on your mobile, which is needed because you need to use the camera on your phone for head mapping. Overall, this is an excellent external soundcard that is reasonably priced, is fully recommended by us, and has made it into my setup for the foreseeable future. The Sound Blaster X4 features the game-changing Super X-Fi technology, which garnered 23 best-of awards at CES 2019-2020. It recreates the soundstage of a premium multi-speaker surround system in headphones, and personalizes it for a natural listening experience. Users will be able to enjoy a transformative audio experience that offers greater surround envelopment, depth, immersion and spatialization effects - like in a real cinema, a gaming battlefield or a concert hall. For speakers, I am currently using the Edifier R2000DB, and I also used them with the Mitchell Acoustics uStream One. For my headset, I use the EPOS Sennheiser GSP 601.A good look at the top of the X4 and we can see a large wheel in the centre, the wheel has a LED ring around its inner and outside edge which indicates which mode it is in.

Compare Sound Blaster

Surround Sound Technologies: (1) Super X-Fi Spatial Holography, (2) Sound Blaster’s Surround Virtualization, (3) Dolby Digital Live encoding for Windows This has outputs for 5.1, which is quite rare for an external soundcard/DAC I think it is only Creative that have this functionality, with this, the X3 and the X7. I don’t have a 5.1 active speaker arrangement in my office so I was unable to test this. I used this with the Creative Sound Blaster Play! 4 and it works well. The main reason to want the SmartComms Kit is the various features it has for the microphone.
