Arrow FS: "Hotrodded" X-Fi Xtreme Music * Price Drop!
Hotrodded X-Fi

Sound Blaster X-Fi XtremeMusic - Upgrade music to the Xtreme Fidelity audio standard



This isnt your average X-Fi here folks. This has been highly modded with a 1600uf 16v Blackgate and National Semi-Con LM4562 OPAmp on all channels. After hotrodding these rival the Prelude and are surprisingly great for analogue output.

$105->$95+Shipping

You betcha :)

It is still an X-Fi but I just replaced the garbage they use on it with MUCH better components. Still supports EAX 5.0 and any other features.

I usually charge about 70 Bux to mod a card, so this is a steal.

A steal of a deal here guys! I charge around 70 bux to mod these with all parts and labor included. Getting it for about $30 bux on top of what the card is worth non-modded.

Does it suport optical out? If so does it support higher then 2.1 optical out? I.e 5.1, 7.1

You wouldn't want to use optical out with this card anyways unless you have a damn good receiver. The opamps on the card are likely better than what your receiver has.

If using the optical out of your Fatality, yes you would see very little improvement. Analogue is another story :)
