  • Frequently Asked Questions About Sound Blaster X7 Ver
    Frequently Asked Questions about the Sound Blaster X7 General 1. Why is the Sound Blaster X7 so light? The Sound Blaster X7 was designed with an external power adapter, as opposed to regular amplifiers with internal transformers, which greatly takes away the bulk and weight from the product itself. The combined weight of the Sound Blaster X7 unit together with the power adapter is approximately 1.1 kg. The Sound Blaster X7 was engineered and designed for power efficiency, heat management and component synergy, resulting in reduced overall weight. We also wanted to create a product with a small footprint that can easily placed next to a desktop computer or in a living room home audio setup. 2. How is heat being managed on the Sound Blaster X7? The Sound Blaster X7 uses an efficient power amplifier that only requires a small heat sink for heat dissipation. The Sound Blaster X7 also complies with ErP, the latest European Union Directive for energy management. 3. Do I need to upgrade to the 24V, 6A high power adapter? The Sound Blaster X7 comes bundled with a 24V, 2.91A power adapter, which should give you 20+20W – 27+27W (into 8 ohms speakers) and 35+35W – 38+38W (into 4 ohms speakers) in normal usage scenarios. Such output power is sufficient in an average room setup. You will only need an upgrade to the higher power adapter if you require more audio power. Connectivity to Audio/Video (AV) Systems 1. I currently have an AV system at home. How do I connect the Sound Blaster X7 to it? You can connect the Sound Blaster X7 to your home AV system via TOSLINK*.
