good sound (98db SN)


Err...this is Creative we're talking about here? ISTR that they have a knack for massaging their specs when it comes to SNR. Obviously I haven't heard the unit, so it may well be 98dB, but until I hear an independant analysis I'm going to take that spec with a pinch of salt.

Eg. SB Live 5.1:
Creative state:
Signal to Noise Ratio: >96 db
Noise Floor: -120dB

pcavtech.com:
SNR: 84dB
Dynamic Range: -93dB
