Reviews of the Creative Xmod
-
CNET Review
The Good: Creative's Xmod enhances compressed audio by effectively converting it to 24-bit audio; attractive and easy-to-use hardware; no drivers required; PC and Mac compatible; works with any audio source; priced right.
The Bad: The Creative Xmod requires an AC adapter for use with line-in audio devices such as an MP3 player; does not ship with an AC adapter; not a true portable solution.
The Bottom Line: The reasonably priced Creative Xmod does a remarkable job of making audio sound brighter, deeper, and more vibrant.
