Creative Labs Sound Blaster Extigy user reviews

Pros It seemed like a good idea at the time and it sound nice.

Cons Conflicts with about every program on the computer. Used the newest upgrades from creative. My CD-Rs burned before the Extigy now drop out and skip when played though they never did before. CD-Rs recorded (Roxio Disc Copy) have skips and won't play on

Pros fast to setup

Cons i bought it for Call of Duty and it snounds like im playing in a tin can. Ive been thru every possible setup EAX ,EAX2 and EAX3 in sound options for the game. Sounds like crap with Mp3s also.

Pros good quality mp3 playback, makes the few 63mbps wma files sound like 128mbps mp3s

Cons System crashes galore with my amd athlon xp2100+/win 2k pro system. Updated drivers and firmware and still crashes. Impossible to work with when using my cakewalk sonar 2.0, and I can't even browse cd's without my system crashing. Tried lowering hardwa

Pros External inputs and connectors; reasonable ergonomics; very good sound quality (by non-professional standards); variety of speaker outputs; remote control; fairly easy to install

Cons Giant unwieldy AC adapter; USB port wiggles loose over time; seems to crash every Microsoft operating system known to humankind; zero product or technical support
