24 bit Crystallizer - wow. Now that's cool. All sound would be better if crystallized at 24 bits. Even studio sound, right? :eek:

Actually, the online demos do sound cool on computer speakers. Expander and EQ mostly is what it sounds like. They should sell very well. Doubt the results will be anywhere near as good as the demos, but they will still sell. Bet the car audio guys will be loving them.
 
here is some more 'info'
:whazzat:


What is X-Fi .... Xtreme Fidelity
The attachment is one image from The Flash Demo.

http://www.x-fi.com/whatis/

You can see the compare between 3 qualities:
1. MP3 Audio
2. CD Audio
3. MP3 with X-Fi Crystalizer
This shows clearly that MP3 with X-Fi is better than CD Audio quality.

So we will no longer need the CDaudio format.
We just buy or download MP3
and also buy and use Crystalizer to get the superior Audio!

Read a very even handed review of it the other day...
it seems like the reviewer,
who is not an audiophile by a mile,
was under the impression
that music sounded better with the box
than without it.

I am sure 8/10 listeners
would speak the same impression
if I built, sold and did some smart advertising
including 5 'testimonials' from happy buyers


1. one nice looking styled aluminum box with smooth finish
2. some dead weight material for making box more heavy
3. 4 moderate quality but solid looking gold plated isolated RCA, for input and output
4. a few inches 1 mm2 insulated wire for connecting input and output jacks
5. on top of box, one dummy ON/OFF Push Button marked: BOOST Sound Processing
6. box tightly put together and impossible to open without destruction of box
7. 100% of the inner box space filled with cheap but very hard quality black epoxy glue

................................................................................................................

Now don't you try to copy this idea if mine!
:cool: Of course I have patented this UNIQUE BLACK BOX concept! :cool:
................................................................................................................
Information:

I registered and paid for this patent already February 17th 1979.

All BLACK BOXES sold ever since that day
are sold under the license and/or approval by my company

Lineup Black Boxes Licensing Inc.

Only in the Audiophool community. Joe Q. Public is not going to spend $80 for this and then strain to hear a difference. He want a real change in the sound for his money. 8/10 listeners, anyway.

Didn't you listen to the online demos? I did, they were very cool. Way too Cinerama for my taste, but whoever put them together did a great job. The tracks were tweaked just right so that they could be "restored" to a wonderfull sound. Will it work like that on your files? No, of course not. But it will do something, and it will probabably do something that Joe Q. Public will like.

It's just too bad that Creative let the ad writers get far too "creative" on this one. It' just a USB DAC with fun DSP, that's all.
