Hello, again my name is Rodney Reynolds and this is yet another video review. Today I will be looking at the MP3, this is the MP3+5.1 from Creative Labs of course it’s a sound card. Remember folks this videos as unlimited and this are only my opinions. Okay, of course here what you're looking at is a sound card itself again this is the MP3+5.1 Adobe Digital Soundcard from Creative Labs. And if you have like close look at the card here, we will notice something’s a little bit different than the other sound blast or lap cards. The video allowed here and you have your mic and you also have, the important things here, if you're hooking it up to a double digital receiver and you want to get the fact on one channel, you can go through here the JC free connection to your receiver or you can do at the way that I've done it. I've actually—this channel here is for a sub LS center. This channel here is for the font, and this channel here is for DeBack 2 the gear. So you have the five point channel separation here. You have font two, the DeBack 2 and you have the center and of course the sound.
And the one thing is up to a receiver with home audio speakers, this adds a whole new dimension through this card can imagine. Its certainly was amazing and the games even the new ones and even the old ones. You can circle and see some amazing separation on all the channels, the only time really you're going to be using a sound check is with the, with for instance DVD technology, if you have a DVD in to your system. You can if you wish actually point it directly the key with audio cable into here thus the CD SPDIF connector, for it has auxiliary and CD and a TADM. This of course here are pretty standard in most soundcard except this one here is a little different. And this one sells I think this products sells for about $135.00 Canadian Funds, its very reasonable for a card like this and you can of course if you want all the font controls and the panel which goes into your game, your computer as well as the remote control that go for the platinum. And a platinum of course is much, much more expensive it’s like $270.00 Canadian, so that’s a lot of money to pay I think for a soundcard.
Now, let's actually have a look at how actually hooked this up to my Adobe Digital Receiver. And here this is the Adobe Digital Receiver that I actually have for gaining this separation this is again a digital ready receiver. This things are actually going out of style because the decoders is now of course are in this—in the past you have to buy this and then buy a decoder separate. And these are retail for around $200.00 to $300.00 Canadian, which is a good deal. And of course you have all the controls and you have all the adjustments of all the separate channels when you actually have this kind of setup. So you can go for instance, surround gear, surround left, this is the subwoofer, you can also the font left and to set the channel. You can increase or decrease the volume as well as you can do the font light to connect alls the channel you can increase and decrease each individual speaker depending on how you want them to be setup in your position natural because you might be in some situations closer to a left speaker or a right speaker so you want to increase or decrease the speaker accordingly.
Now, let's actually have a look at what I needed to do to plug this stuff into the back of this receiver. And this is only the best receiver if you a buy a different receiver you might actually have some kind of different controls and plug-ins. In this case, right here is the font; see you have a font right and left. And a separation through the wire rope, this is the wire right and left, and this is the sub and the center channel, we go in here. So of course, you have your separation for two separations over your font. In a gear your sub and your center channel, so should note this receiver is actually model number is VSX-D209 if you want to pick one of this out. What I have for font speaker TX, they are home, basically home, speaker for a home audio systems. That’s one of what I have here at JBL for the gear and for my sub actually what I've done for the sub is I have another amp, which actually is separate, so its powering the sub and this is actually got car sub, so is extremely powerful, it’s a 12 inch and I think for that 300 watts.
So more than adequate comfort, again setup here, so again you could get yourself a power sub which will be excellent as well, which probably would recommend doing this as were going through the fuss and having through hang in the app and then you have to get the subwoofer, just get a one that’s powered, a powered subwoofer for home audio system would be fine. Now, myself I've never really liked much, the you know, the belongs you buy from prepackage deals they're getting better but still the true sound of audio is not quite there. But the price is there of course because they're not so really expensive this buying receiver, sub and the fonts you know allows the audio equipment, which is, which is probably going to be tolling in maybe close on the eat my dollars time to finished.
But if you have some, if you do have an old DIVO receiver click in the URL, excellent for me you can use it and maybe you do have some extra, slugger sticking around from an old system you have in your anniversary days or something like that. But in my case just let that do it well, now let's actually start a game and start to hear this actual music you want of course feel to experience it like I'm experiencing it. But I think it some one the occasion as to how I'm enjoying it. Okay, so what you're looking at here of course the back of the computer system and its whole lot of stuff plug into the soundcard. Right, here I'm going to the sub on this image channel, right here I'm going to my mic, right here I'm going to my fonts and right here I'm going to my rears.
Of course this is the audio, MP3 and the sound is working, the rear have been working, flash are working, so great nice sound. Let's have a look at our game, this is the game called Undying. Okay, so I've slipping at a game play here also a movie sequence if you're getting in this game, by the way this game is excellent. And there are some place in this game of course this is like extremely break game for this kind of a sound card, for the simple fact that it needs core and you know things are creaking off in the behind. This game controller, shooting arrows at you as walk by and you can hear them striking behind you, this have been strangely, scary game by the way.
What a buggy sequence, there you have it one of the soundcard are wrong, I get the soundcard a ten, that’s an excellent card, excellent price, I mean nothing else in the market really compares to this right now, its certainly and excellent, excellent super soundcard indeed. I get us a 10 out of 10. Wonderful soundcard, excellent price and performers wise and the sound of this is unbelievable. I think whether you even have a cheaper kind of setup, in the sense of a nice sound system with true separation, so decent speakers and the font as so package deals as you're going to get, with the font as well. But if you want to go all the way to the receiver, to the home audio gear and you will experience gaming like you should its grand’s gaming. Again my name is Rodney Reynolds and this has been another video review.
