DTS, DTS ES, 7.1 Channels game and movie playback it's all so teasing isn't it ? More importantly, it's all so expensive ! Creative Labs however is clever, a speaker for every price range. And for about 120 EUR you can pick up their Creative Inspire T7700 speakers set. Not just 2.1, 4.1 or 5.1 no, we are talking about 7 speakers and a subwoofer .. yes, and the best thing yet, if you look around a bit you'll spot them for 120 EUR.
This dear friends is Creature's approach to tease you and me into buying this set as it sets them away from the competition. But for so little money, would this set really be worth to buy it ?

The Inspire T7700 basically was build to compliment Creative's latest soundcard, the 7.1 channel Audigy 2 ZS, which is being reviewed by us pretty soon, by the way. That soundcard can do some real magic with Dolby Digital and DTS streams.
