Hey everyone, I am currently trying to decide between two soundcards; the Sondigo Inferno and the Creative X-Fi Xtrememusic. My computer is hooked up to two stereo shelf speakers, so here's my question:
Creative has a CMSS-3D feature which apparently gives surround sound type realism in games with a two speaker setup. It has gotten good reviews from what I have read.
On the other hand, Sondigo has the DOlby Virtual Speaker feature, which on paper looks good, but I haven't found any practical reviews on it.
So finally the question: Which of these two technologies is better for my purpose, and which will give me the "truest" surround sound experience out of my 2.0 speaker setup?
Note: The stereo shelf speakers are part of an AIWA 280W stereo system.
Thanks in advance, I'm making the decision of which to purchase in the next couple of days.
Hi, unfortunately I haven't
Hi, unfortunately I haven't tried the CMSS-3D feature, so I can't comment. Not that my opinion would be completely un-biased anyways :^).
However, Dolby does have a demo on their site: http://www.dolby.com/consumer/technology/virtual_speaker.html
