Competitiveness
I't added a lot more punchiness that i am able to notice on even my relatively cheap 70 dollar corsair headphones.
Paired and tested with with a hyperx revolver s headset and sennheiser pc373d headset.

Greatly increased the audio quality of all the music i listen to and there’s a bunch of settings you can play around with inside the software

The reviews saying “the installation disk is for windows 7” are true however you can easily find the drivers online if you just google “sound blaster z drivers” and use the link on creative cloud’s website

This sound card can push any headset gaming or hq and the sound is clear and amazing and when you listen to a symphony you hear every instrument which you will never on an onboard sound chipset

Installation was easy and fast adjusting settings within the software was easy and so many to change but most can be left alone but i had to change the eq and made it even better paired with creative t10 speaker set its more than enough for movies sound but this sound card shines even more with a hq pair of headsets such as the ones i use the sony mdr1a
