This is NOT "New", it is Refurbished; but still AWESOME

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 31, 2011

Verified Purchase

I think this is already mentioned, but should be mentioned again. Despite the description of the item, this is a refurbished product. I can say that after a couple weeks, I've had no problems, and this seems to work just fine for me (primarily have connected via USB to a notebook and then optical out to a creative 5.1 decoder), and I am generally happy with it for the $19.99 that I paid, but was a little disappointed when opening up and seeing that it did not match what I was stated (new) in the listing.

Also, just an FYI, there is a "pro" version of this same device. This is not it. Just in case you need whatever extra feature that version has (didn't matter to me in my case).

[UPDATE] 2 1/2 years later and I still use this daily; really nice device and I've had ZERO problems. I 'might' only replace it because the latest version of this goes on Black Friday sale today but then I'd use this device on my 'other' PC. I'm really glad I got this -- adding a 4th star (from 3 stars initially); would give it a full 5 stars if it had been new as advertised.

Bad Drivers

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 13, 2011

Verified Purchase

Bought this card for recording podcast - to upgrade the mic input and to add line-in for my laptop. Tried it on a couple XP laptops - windows recognized the device, but Windows built-in drivers do not allow recording (mic/line-in unavailable). Had to install Creative drivers that came with tonns of bloat (Creative auto-update insisted on downloading and installing a bunch of bloatware apps that it listed as Critical). Warning!!!! - Creative drivers on Win XP cause CPU to lock-up for almost a minute every time I adjusted the volume knob. On dual-core Vista PC - moving volume knob also caused CPU- to spike up for about 15 seconds. I could do without using the volume knob, but when I tried recording, I also ran in to problems with delays, pops and crack that I did not have with any of my built-in sound cards. Read other reviews and you'll see many of the same complaints. Creative needs to get their act together!

+1 for Refurbished

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 26, 2010

Just reaffirming the other reviews on this product.

If you're going for a brand new unit, then heed these reviews and PLEASE DON'T PURCHASE THIS.

This is a refurbished unit, branded as new on the Amazon product page. I blame Creative for this, and not Amazon. Opened the box, and although everything looks good and I'm sure it performs well, this is not what I ordered.

Returning my unit immediately.

Good start

This is good sound at low price.
In addition to this I use SRS IWOW with Itunes and Breakaway to make it sound louder.
At this time is good for me but I think I am ready to buy the pro version.

Love it!

Love it on my XP laptop but haven't tried it on any of my Win 7 machines. Creative Labs dropped the ball with Vista and Win 7 when it first came out and I'm anxious to see if it works with Win 7. I will get another one shortly.

Works great. Installed with no problems and gives much better sound than the audio directly out of my laptop. I like thatt it is portable so I can take it with me from machine to machine. I sometimes use it on my laptop, other times on my desktop.
