The Creative Sound Blaster X5 Hi-Res Dual DAC USB Sound Card is not only one of the most versatile Sound cards on the market, it's also one of the best. With its dual DAC for balanced output and the surprisingly powerful Xamp bi-amplifier, the X5 easily h...

The introduction of the Sound Blaster X5 was exciting because to me I saw it as them stepping back into the enthusiast market for the desktop. They have been there for the mobile market with their Sound Blaster G lineup. But after the Sound Blaster X7...

The Creative Sound Blaster X5 is available online for $300/€310. You can order it in Creative's official online store. Great sound quality, best sounding Creative sound card we tested to date Fully balanced design with two DACs and two custom Xamp headph...
If we ponder the purpose of the Creative Sound Blaster X5, I would probably conclude this is a strong external sound card that provides a happy medium for both amateurs and more experienced users. At the top, we have an unassuming appearance. The front bu...
Excelente sonido y muy buenas prestaciones, Buen diseño y acabados, Muy potente amplificador de auriculares con selector de impedancia, Salida de auriculares balanceada, Entradas digitales y analógica, Rueda de volumen muy cómoda, Receptor BT integrado
Precio elevado, Sin conexión XLR para el micrófono
Concluimos la review de la Creative Sound Blaster X5 destacando que estamos ante una tarjeta de sonido enfocada a audiófilos con algunas prestaciones muy interesantes y algunas carencias. Por un lado, la pareja de procesadores Cirrus Logic CS43198 hacen u...
Calidad de sonido, Ganancia de sonido, Amplio abanico de conexiones, Cableado incluido, Fácil de utilizar, Ganancia y mejoras del micrófono, Compatible con PS4 y PS5, Aplicación intuitiva

Absence de la technologie Super X-Fi, Pas de Bluetooth sortant (nativement), Pas d'option pour ajouter une télécommande,
Pour conclure, la Sound Blaster X5 est la meilleure carte son Creative que j'ai testée jusqu'à présent en termes de puissance brute et de qualité sonore globale. Avec ses deux DAC, ses deux amplificateurs personnalisés et sa topologie entièrement équilibr...

À laise aussi bien en jeux quen musique, Qualité de son générale en RCA et sur casque, Lénorme étendue des fonctionnalités logicielles, Nombre dentrées et de sorties, Ajout du Bluetooth, Design accrocheur, Sortie casque symétrique
Pas dalimentation externe
Avec sa Sound Blaster X5, Creative a apparemment eu lintention de proposer un équivalent externe à sa carte son interne AE-9 en termes de fonctionnalités, tout en améliorant encore certains points, comme le choix de la puce audio, le nombre dentrées et...
