Looks pretty much like a revamped version of the Recon 3D Fatal1ty with a a couple tweaks and a different color scheme. Here’s a first look at the Sound Blaster Z itself. It also looks quite nice as it has a small plastic piece that allows it to sit right on top of your monitor. It’s actually a decent microphone and it works very well with the soundcard. Although the Sound Blaster Z is the entry level Z series soundcard, Creative has also included what they call a “Beamforming” microphone.

Included in the packaging, we get the usual documentation along with a driver disk. We also get a number of features plastered over the front such as SBX Pro Studio, integrated headphone amp, Sound Core 3D, 116dB SNR, etc. It’s pretty reminiscent of Sound Blaster packaging from the past with the exception of a new color scheme. Here’s a look at the packaging for the Sound Blaster Z. SNR (20kHz Low-pass filter, A-Wgt), 24-bit, 96kHz Is Creative’s latest and greatest worth the money? Let’s find out! While the Sound Blaster Z will be available for purchase starting now, Creative also has the Sound Blaster ZX and the Sound Blaster ZXR coming, both of which I’m told should be available for purchase in Q1 2013.ĭespite the Sound Blaster Z being the entry level Sound Blaster Z series soundcard, the Sound Blaster Z is still a very high end product with features such as a SNR of 116dB, a 600 ohm headphone amp, 24 bit resolution, 192kHz sample rate, and of course, Creative’s Sound Core 3D audio processor. Today we’ll be reviewing the Sound Blaster Z, which is the entry level soundcard in the Sound Blaster Z series of soundcards.

It’s only been about a year since we reviewed Creative’s Sound Blaster Recon 3D soundcard and they’re back again with a new line of products, the Sound Blaster Z series.
