Auzen has X-Meridian 7.1 2G out on the market
By Hilbert Hagedoorn, December 22, 2010 - 10:28 PM N/A


 

Auzentech announced the immediate availability of the Auzen X-Meridian 7.1 2G, the second generation of the Auzen X-Meridian 7.1. The original Auzen X-Meridian 7.1 was a game-changing high-performance audio card which marked the dividing line between audio that sounds great, and audio that sounds perfect. It was the world's first custom-designed audio card based on C-Media CMI 8788 chipset, and received rave reviews for its audio quality. Now, the award winning Auzentech audio development team and chipset manufacturer C-Media have teamed up again.

With the X-Meridian 7.1 2G, Auzentech has taken what many consider the greatest sound card of all time and updated it with the best of today's technology, making the X-Meridian 7.1 2G more than simply the must-have PC Audio solution for audiophiles—it's a feast for the ears. Under the hood, the new X-Meridian 7.1 2G has been upgraded with new Advanced Driver Software Architecture (ADSA) for the C-Media CMI8788 Oxygen HD PCI Audio Processor. Features include Dolby Digital Live Real-Time Content Encoder, DTS CONNECT and Xear3D sound technology.

The X-Meridian 7.1 2G key features are:

  • CMI8788 - High quality PCI 32-bit multi-channel audio processor
  • Pure electrical connections via gold plated PCB, jacks and metal bracket
  • 24bit/192kHz high definition 7.1 channel analog playback
  • Signal-to-noise ratio greater than 115dB

  • Complete Dolby Home Theater technologies: Dolby Digital Live, Dolby Pro Logic II, Dolby Virtual Speaker, Dolby Headphone
  • DTS Connect, DTS Interactive, and DTS Neo:PC
  • Shift between Coaxial and Optical Output and Input, with combo adaptor
  • Proprietary Auzentech Pointing Ground Design shares one point for the DAC, OPAMP, Power Supply and Output Jack, cutting noise and distortion
  • 7.1 Virtual speaker shifter supporting virtual surround over two channel speaker and headphone
  • C-Media FlexBass: Advanced bass management allowing a variety of speaker types and combinations. Large, small speaker setting available for all channels. LFE channel crossover frequency configurable in small speaker mode (from 50Hz to 250Hz).
