About X-Fi 3
About X-Fi
X-Fi is the new audio standard from Creative that gives you an experience
beyond studio quality from your music and movies.
Imagine being in the studio as your favorite artist records a new album. The
sound is real and live the way it was meant to be heard. When that album
gets mass-produced on CD, it is compressed to fit the format and the sound
quality of that original performance suffers. When you further compress the
songs into MP3, you’ll notice an even greater loss of sound quality. Your
favorite album now sounds flat and lifeless. X-Fi technology breathes life
back into the songs. It restores the details, expands the music to surround
sound and creates an experience that goes beyond studio quality.
About X-Fi Crystalizer
Most downloadable music and movies are compressed; making downloads
fast, and storage and portability convenient. The downside is that the quality
and fullness of your songs and soundtracks are diminished.
X-Fi Crystalizer analyzes audio, identifies the elements that have been
restricted/damaged during compression and re-masters them by selective
audio enhancement. X-Fi Crystalizer instantaneously transforms your CDs
and MP3s to crystal clear sound.

4 About X-Fi
About X-Fi CMSS-3D
X-Fi CMSS-3D expands your stereo MP3s and digital movies into surround
sound with voices centered in front of you and ambient sound all around
you. Designed not only for stereo speakers and multichannel systems, it
even supports headphones, surrounding you with nine virtual speakers so
you feel like you’re sitting in with your favorite band or that you’ve been
dropped into the best seat in the movie theater.
X-Fi CMSS-3D Virtual - Immersive surround sound over two speakers.
X-Fi CMSS-3D Headphone - Immersive surround sound over headphones.

16 Safety Information
Safety Information
Refer to the following information to use your product safely, and to reduce
the chance of electric shock, short-circuiting, damage, fire, hearing
impairment or other hazards.
Do not dismantle or attempt to repair your product. Refer all
servicing to authorized repair agents.
Do not expose your product to temperatures outside the range of 0°C
to 45°C (32°F to 113°F).
Do not pierce, crush or set fire to your product.
Keep your product away from strong magnetic objects.

Do not listen to audio at high volume for prolonged periods of time.
When a conductive apparatus such as earphones, is used in close
proximity with a CRT television or CRT monitor, the latter may emit
an electrostatic discharge. This electrostatic discharge can be felt as
a static shock. While this static shock is usually harmless, it is good
practice to avoid close contact with CRT devices when using
earphones.
