The Box and the Bundle

The HTHD box is really quite small but heavy for the size.  The box is loaded with specifications and logos to catch your attention and sink the hook for the sale.  Even if you’re not sure what all these logos and the numbers refer to all the info and pictures have your eyes bouncing from one to the next.

 Auzentech X-fi Home Theater HD 7.1 - we all know that at Christmas time it is nice to look at all the great wrapped presents but the best part is inside, so let’s see what Auzentech sent over shall we?

 A closer look at the Home Theater HD 7.1
One thing you notice right away is this card is packed with components.  On initial inspection the top of the card handles the HDMI audio/video tasks.  The bottom half of the card handles the analog outputs.

Let’s have a look at the rear of the card at the expansion options.  We seen the And_EXT Pin Header which has connections for the front panel I/O found on most modern PC cases.

We have an exclusive sneak preview of the Auzentech X-Meridian 7.1 2G soundcard. This card also marks a move back to the highly popular 8788 based chipset (at least for this model) that has been seen on some of the best sounding cards built to date. This card has many of the original ideas that made the XM 7.1 so popular but also has some changes that will appeal to different user types. The card is also aimed at a lower price point with a MSRP of $159.99 which appeals to a larger audience.

Auzentech X-Fi Home Theater HD 7.1 Soundcard review
Auzentech has been developing an HDMI soundcard for quite a while and this new card is said to be loaded with features for any audio tasks. Today in the Guru3D audio lab, we have a brand spanking new Auzentech Home Theater HD 7.1. This ongoing one-upmanship between existing companies is what drives the soundcard market and ensures new products are higher quality and offers new and innovative features to the audio community. The HDMI standard is still considered new in the PC landscape, and while many GFX cards offer HDMI options for graphics the audio side of the standard has been ignored and is lacking. We are going to run this card through our extensive testing and measuring regimen to let our readers know exactly what you will be getting for your hard earned audio dollars.
