Creative Sound Blaster Live! Platinum Reviews

I bought a new computer a few months ago, and as I am an audio fanatic, and the new SoundBlaster Live Platinum was out, I decided that I would stump up the extra cash and get one installed. When I got home, I plugged the computer in and connected up my speakers (via my sound system), and popped in a CD. Wow, I was absolutely amazed with ...

At my college over the past few weeks we have been experimenting different things with a computer system, hopefully this will mean I can do some good detailed reviews for you to read over the next few weeks. Creative Labs took its fantastic Live! sound card and kicked it up a notch in an all new version called the Sound Blaster Live! ...

I purchased the Soundblaster Live Platinum soundcard after I received a set of Cambridge Soundworks DTT3500 speakers for christmas. I had brilliant sound quality just from the speakers but in my stupidity of youth I thought why the hell not make it even better, and how right I was. After installing the soundcard in a free PCI slot and ...

I build my own computers, mostly from cheap, refurbished, or hand-me-down parts from when friends upgrade their computers. My computer was using an ancient Sound Blaster 16 ISA AWE32 with Wave Table synthesis and two memory slots for 30-pin SIMMs. I was so happy to have sound in my machine. After systematically upgrading my system's ...

This has to be the best soundcard available at the moment along with the other variations of the Live range like this one and the Live Platinum. The good thing with this card is that it is pretty cheap and can be picked up for around £45-00 and yet it supports things like quad surround sound which providing you buy the 4 point surround sound ...

This card installed in a breeze. Just plug it in and install the drivers, no problem whatsoever. Just a bit too much annoying software included in liveware but it's easy to get rid of. It sounds great, EAX (the 3d sound spec of Creative Labs) is fully supported by everyone except John Carmack (Quake). The livedrive is wonderful, it's so ...

This sound card is from a well known soundcard manufacturer. And has yet to fail me with their sound quality. I would like to point out that this sound card works well with A creative Labs DXR3 MpegCard and Creative's Cambridge SoundWorks Desktop Theatre 5.1! More about the Card: PROS: Fast reliable and a good brand name. You ...

The Creative Sound Blaster Live Platinum comes with two games, software for the card, and two pieces of music software. The games aren’t bad either. The games are Alien versus Predator and Roll Cage.

You get a live drive which has MIDI, Auxillary mic and digital inputs and outputs on the front! A great sound card which use Enviromental ...

If you're a sound enthusiast, and want top notch performance get the platinum live it`s awesome.The sound editing software is incredible. MIDI and SPDIF i/o ports make it a snap for cyber-musicians. The front jacks make everything easier - no more "reach-around" to plug in a headset combo. Plus, the front jacks are 1/4" stereo ...

Lets face it not any people are really bothered about their soundcard. I had to invest in a new one earlier this year because my old one blew up! Fortunately I had £200 spare! I decided as I had nothing else to spend it on to invest iin a new top spec sound card. This cost me £169! It has two parts, one for the inside back of your PC and the ...

The SoundBlaster Live Platinum is the latest in a long line of Creative SoundBlaster cards and this is the best one so far. Not only do you get a top of the range SoundBlaster Live soundcard but also included is the Live Drive II interface which is installed in an available 5 1/4 bay and provides connectors to all known audio equipment. ...
