Professional quality at a consumer price.Strengths: Amazing amount of connections, superb sound, professional capabilities. Weakness: Remote lacks some functions. To begin, let me just state that I do not think this unit is over-priced. Creative Labs continuously runs $100 rebates on this item, meaning that, after rebate, I bought this product for about $265, which isn't all that much more than the suggested retail price of the "lesser" X-Fi models. Now, as for the product itself, it offers the absolute highest quality of any consumer sound card I have...

awesomeStrengths: crisp and clean sound quality, a lot of features which allow you to add extra sound effects Weakness: none so far I bought this card to upgrade from creative audigy 2 ZS. All I can say is that it is a even better sound card. The sound quality is crisp and clean, well balanced. You need to a good set of speakers to test the sound quality though (I have a logitech 5.1 speaker set). It comes with a lot of features which allow you add extra sound effects. It has a remote as well. Great product!

Great sound and connectivityStrengths: Great sound quality with the crystalizer and lots of inputs and outputs. Weakness: A bit pricey at retail price and the external box is a fairly big. Remote doesn't work all functions that it should. Installation was easy and the sound quality is great. Nice effects with the audio creation console and would make an ok inexpensive studio type recording card. Have had no problems so far and very pleased with the results. The $80 rebate that came with my purchase made this a better value.

Elite for sure!Strengths: Incredible Sound Quality, Best Gaming Sound experience, Amazing connectivity Weakness: Requires internal power connector, Not sure Remote is so useful, Included drivers not recommended (get from website), Break-out box really big I thought I was crazy, paying $200 for a sound card! But in my case, the extra connectivity appealed to me for music recording etc. If you can't find a connection with this thing than you havent tried. It has multiple channels of analog and digital in's and out's. I installed the downloaded drivers first, then put in the CD and installed the applications I wanted (make sure to uncheck "Drivers"...

X-fi Elite ProStrengths: Great Sound, Aesthetics, Easy to Use design, expandable, High End sound card. Weakness: Too expensive, needs to be able to connect directly to a dts component system out of the box , not as an accessorie (CreativeLabs DTS-610 $100). Software Package a little buggy (occasional PC lock up) Great Sound card!! 24bit crystalizer really brings any sound source to new crisp level. The remote's scroll wheels need to be revisted because they stick when rolling making it feel cheap! Even with that the idea is good. It gives you the ability to adjust volume, EAX, CMMS3D, 3DMIDI, and 24bit Crystalizer on the fly; handy if you in the middle of a game. The Cpu's load is noticeable decreased...

Impressive the top of PC sound cardStrengths: Crystal Clear Sound and Functions Weakness: Very surprise at external box. I have switched from Platinum to Elite version and very surprise the external box. It is bigger than I expected. I used the Audigy 2 Platinum Pro and Audify 2 ZS Platinum Pro and see that the Box of Elite is so big. Anyway, it sound is much better than previous versions. Now I got what I want.

Perfect Sound CardStrengths: Great sound quality, lots of inputs&outputs Weakness: Sligtly overpriced I bought this card especially for gaming purposes. I am completely satisfied with this card. But I realized that I do not need such a high end card just for gaming. This card is for professionals. I'm only using the drive bay I/O panel for the headphone jack, platinum version should be OK for me and the price of the platinum version is much more cheaper than this card. If you have the means and...

Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Elite Pro
Strengths: Sound quality and number of features
Weakness: somewhat price
This audio card was quite easy to set up and install and it works great. The sound quality is just amazing and there are so many different features and ways you can tweak the sound, that you just can't name them all and I don't even think I have used even half of them so far. The only negative thing was the out of pocket cost was a little high, but the $100 rebate helped that out (provided I...
