Full sound at all levels
Excellent noise reduction

Great noise cancellation. Excellent sound quality.
Pleasant audio performance—much better than Boses Quiet Comforts. Excellent noise cancellation. Well-defined bass. More powerful output than the Quiet Comfort 2s. iPhone-compatible extension cable.
About as good as it gets from headphones
Very good sound quality in ordinary conditions
X-Fi Crystalizer option enhances compressed audio
On-ear volume switch
Lots of extras included

Active noisecancellation works well
Good sound.
The editors didn't like
Additional effects arent all that interesting.
They have an extremely low playback time.
Sound bleeds out from the headphones
Bulky
Big and bulky. Can’t fold. Some audio leakage.
Cable fits awkwardly into headphones. The X-Fi 3D special effect isnt great. Set is less comfy than Boses Quiet Comfort 2.
Size. It's not the most portable of accessories
Poorly designed
With bulky earpieces and problematic adjustable headset and audio connector cable
X-Fi CMSS-3D essentially useless
The Creative Aurvana X-Fi headphones are expensive
The design isnt that portable
And quite a bit of sound bleeds out for all to hear.
Abstract: With built-in Wi-Fi, this small-screen device is packed with features. Unfortunately, you can’t synchronise the device wirelessly, but you can stream media from your network if it’s available. The 2.5in display isn’t a touchscreen, so you need the but...
We would gladly forsake a lifetime of salt and vinegar pretzels and miniature bottles of gin if airlines handed out this noise-cancelling beauties at the start of a flight instead. Connect them to a music player and let the X-Fi gizmos squeeze every last...
Noise-cancelling isn’t as effective as the Sennheisers and Boses of the world, and you’ll either love or hate the artificial spaciousness of the X-Fi treatment (you can always turn it off it you don’t like it). Sound quality is great at...
If you’ve got room in your holiday bags for a plastic sombrero, there should be room for the Aurvana X-Fi. A great commuting gadget too, especially if not all your MP3s are ripped at the highest quality.Creative Aurvana X-Fi is tagged with Creative...
The Creative Aurvana X-Fi is not inexpensive. But the nearest competitor, Boses QuietComfort 2, costs just as much and offers half the features. Which would you rather have - headphones that merely block noise, or headphones that block noise and impr...
X-Fi makes music and movies sound awesome, CMSS-3D adds a touch of class, Noise cancelling works well
The steep price, Sound leakage
We first had a play with these cans at IFA in Germany back in September 2007. While we were very impressed at the time, with little chance to try our own inputs and have a proper play, it was hard to make any decisive judgements.Luckily, we now have ou...
Very Comfortable, Light, Good Sound quality, X-Fi, Noise Cancelation, 3D Surround, Good Package
Bass (X-Fi mode), Very Expensive
The Creative Aurvana X-Fi sells for Rs.19,999 with a one year warranty. Now, thats highly expensive. But most of the Noise Cancelation headphones from acknowledged brands are expensive. For e.g., the Bose QuiteComfort 3 are for over 21K. So, the prici...
All in all, the Creative Aurvana X-Fi can be seen as a definitive creation from Creative. Its ability to be driven passively without batteries is a plus point, though that means excluding all the bells and whistles of course. It isnt a perfect creatio...
The Creative Aurvana X-Fi is an exceptional headphone. The noise cancelling feature is quite astounding. With the headphones in noise cancelling mode you can barely hear your own voice when you speak, it really is that good. I managed to go a couple of...
No cabe duda de que Creative ha logrado poner a punto unos notables auriculares, con unos valores añadidos muy interesantes como la cancelación de ruido y las tecnologías de mejora digital de la señal.Sin embargo, toda este alarde de tecnologías propie...
