To truly test the capabilities of the Sound Blaster X7 and the quality of the audio reproduction, our team 
performs listening tests with a variety of genres and with different pairs of headphones. We do not believe in 
limiting ourselves to just gaming demos, but to achieve a more critical assessment, we use Industry Reference 
Tracks for the auditions. For an inclusive listening experience, we also do not confine ourselves to using just our 
signature Aurvana Headphones, but have included in our tests the Fostex T50RP Critical Listening Headphone 
as well as the Beyerdynamic DT880 (600 ohms) headphones among others.

What has the award winning German music composer, Mr Hans 
Zimmer, to do with games?  Well, very much! To bring out the 
realism in games, compelling detailed graphics and captivating 
audio must go hand in hand. Hans Zimmer’s masterpiece 
in Modern Warfare 2: Opening Title is able to draw out the 
suspense, fear and heroic spirit of the game. If played on just 
measly speakers or average headphones, the soundstage and 
presence will never be felt, let alone London Philharmonic 
Orchestra’s spectacular scoring for this game. However, when 
played through the Sound Blaster X7, the opening piece creates 
an ambience that puts you right there in the battlefield! Truly, 
music stirs the emotions and in this “Opening Title”, either 
courage rises out of you or goosebumps out of fear!

Demo #1: Experience unparalleled realism

Hans Zimmer – Modern Warfare 2: Opening Title

Leona Lewis’s 

Bleeding Love is the top selling single world wide 

in 2008. The pop/R&B ballad showcases Leona’s impressive 
vocal prowess. Accompanied by church organs, synthesized 
strings, wood block percussions and even a distorted marching 
drum, this song is brought to a whole new level of rhythm via 
the Sound Blaster X7. The Sound Blaster X7 is adept to splendid 
displays of contemporary songs as it is for audiophile music and 
even music created for games.

Demo #2: Experience powerful vocals

Leona Lewis – Bleeding love

If you have been watching movies on your tablet or smartphones, 
you would notice the lack of impact and cinematic audio effects. 
Let this demo of the award winning Life of Pi show you what the 
built-in SB-Axx1 multi-core processor on the Sound Blaster X7 can 
do for your mobile movie experience. Simply push the SBX button 
on the Sound Blaster X7 to activate Sound Blaster’s intelligent 
processing capabilities and you will be transported into the movie 
itself! Experience true-to-life surround sound, enhanced movie 
dialogs and minimized volume level changes, just like in the 
cinemas. Have absolute audio control over any movie audio using 
the Sound Blaster Central mobile app (for iOS and Android) or the 
Sound Blaster Control Panel software (for PC and Mac). 

Demo #3: Experience compelling movies
