Sound experts have described it as "incredibly mind-blowing", "magical", "nothing short of amazing" and "with great sound". It has also won numerous awards. Quite surprising, when you consider that this was all based on a demonstration of headphone audio technology. Super X-Fi is not a 3D or surround technology - we saw this already 20 years ago. It is much, much more. Think of the magic of holography, but for audio and for headphones. Now the miracle has finally arrived, ”said Sim Wong Hoo, CEO of Creative.
“We are proud to introduce the first product types of this magical technology, SXFI AMP and SXFI AIR. Both will revolutionize the audio experience in headphones for movies, music, games on smartphones, tablets, computers and game consoles. Unlike standard headphone audio, where sound is pumped directly into your ears projecting claustrophobic audio trapped in your head, Super X-Fi will deliver a magical effect, as if you were listening to sound from the outside world naturally and headphones they will magically disappear!

How Super X-Fi Works
Imagine living the listening experience of a high-end multi-speaker system in a theater and recreating the same immersive experience: the same depth, the details, the sound, the three-dimensionality, the immersion, the realism and more. yet. It's like the magic of holography, but in headphone audio.
Super X-Fi headphone holographic technology, leveraging cutting-edge precision technology that associates the distinct acoustics of an audio system and projecting sound to the human ear in three-dimensional space, intelligently translates complex information for near-listening listening. identical in headphones, making you live a breathtaking and unprecedented experience.
Furthermore, each of us hears a different sound in the real world, depending on the shape of our ears and the structure of our head. Super X-Fi extensively uses AI to map the individual's ear shape and head profile, and uses a computationally complex algorithm to transform and customize audio tailored to each individual, so that it plays as what it would feel in the real world.
