Want quality that lasts? AVOID Creative My dad bought me the Creative iRoar Speaker as a birthday present during lockdown but after 3yrs, all of a sudden it would no longer hold a charge and often shuts down due to saying its overheated when not even warm. I contacted Creative, they gave me 2 "fixes" which didn't work, after going back they then saw it wasn't within 2yrs and thats that, tough luck. So the moral of the story is, if you want a product thats going to last long, avoid Creative.

Best Speaker under $50 If you're looking for speakers for your PC under $50, you can never go wrong with what creative has to offer under $50. I've been using Inspire M4500 4:1 speakers for 9 years. The tight and well controlled bass is just amazing. Yes, after using 6/7 years, it started to sound a bit muffled and distorted at Full volume and the TRS jack has started to fail. But I'm super impressed by the performance and I don't think I could do any better than creative for the price.

Sound BlasterX G6 Don’t understand so many bad reviews, ordered first time without problems, but we will see. Bought Sound BlasterX G6 for my PS5 and also connected it with NvidiaShield for Spotify and Youtube for music, works great. Package arrived in a week to Ireland. On PS5 using it without any EQ for the Tempest 3D Audio, works well with my Beyerdinamics Tygr 300R, didn’t play too many games yet so can’t talk about sound quality change and so on, but for music is instant great as I can use EQ for lowerin treble and few other things to make sound much better then vanila headphones output. For now great.

Good hardware. Terrible support and drivers Good hardware. Terrible support and drivers and good hardware is pointless if it won't work because of driver issues never being resolved.

Customer service is lacking Customer service is lacking Great products, but expect zero assistance from their ‘sales support team’ Expect to do any work yourself regarding purchasing or returning, their team is not interested I. Helping with either task
