We didn’t find the Sound Blaster X3 difficult to set up, though we should also note that there are several different configurations and settings to note. The crowning feature above all these is Creative’s own Super X-Fi audio holography, the company’s impressive virtual surround sound technology. On the front are separate microphone and headphone jacks, which can work independently, or together, if you’ve plugged in a gaming headset that uses both plugs. It does work with power adapters plugged into the wall, though sound would have to then come in from the line-in port. Plug it into a computer or console and it will draw power from there. There is no power brick in the box, so the idea is for the connected device to power the X3. Then you have four line-outs for sound systems. A 3.5mm line-in port is perhaps the easiest and most common of them all. The Toslink optical output is there if you want to set up your TV or game console that way. USB-C is the power port, whereas the rest are all about audio variety. On the rear, there are no less than seven ports. The three buttons laid out in front of it mute the microphone, change audio modes and toggle Super X-Fi on or off. The primary input is the large knob in the middle that controls a couple of different things, depending on setup. Creative found a way to keep things simple, yet provide different avenues to pursue all at once.
