Reviews of the Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Elite Pro

    CNET Review

    August 22, 2005

    The Good: Improves the quality of MP3 and CD audio; better software organization; 7.1-channel, 24-bit/96KHz output; extensive external device connectivity.

    The Bad: Noticeable latency between remote and receiver; no FireWire or USB 2.0 ports; software still needs streamlining; pricey.

    The Bottom Line: Creative's new X-Fi processor makes the X-Fi Elite Pro the most advanced and priciest Sound Blaster ever.
