Deal Details
Was looking at specs for another item and saw this. x4 is DAC (USB sound card) + AMP (headphone amp). You do not need anything to run this other than a free USB-A port which provides data input as well as power to the unit. Can handle up to 600ohm headphones.
I run a soundblaster ae-5 plus and sundara closed backs, but this is perfect for my work desktop. btw this also has sb x-fi, which is proprietary virtual surround where you use the phone app to scan your head and then it adjusts sound to mimic what you would hear if you were in a 5.1 or 7.1 surround environment.

Honestly, if you are asking if this device will benefit you instead of checking specs yourself it's probably not going to help you. And that's 100% OK!! There is no reason to waste money on stuff you don't need.

But in regards to this DAC, I have no idea. I haven't bought anything from Creative in over a decade.
Edit: I guess this one has driver issues as well. Creative never changes...

good times :~
I don't really like the sbx effects in games but in movies and music it is fun to play with. 90% of the time I keep it in direct mode, which means no processing whatsoever.
But the sb x-fi in this x4 is intriguing to me. It requires you to literally scan your head and ears with the sb phone app. Then it configures 5.1 or 7.1 sound (ie you set your speaker system to 7.1 while playing Witcher 3, or in movies) and x-fi configures the sound to closely mimic what your ears would hear if you had real 7.1. it's supposed to work very well, guess I'll find out
