Creative Xmod Wireless

By Michael Brown

Creative is a little late to the wireless music-streaming party, but the company comes with a gift its competitors can't match: the X-Fi Crystalizer technology lifted from its X-Fi soundcard line. Click Read More for more.

Great sound quality at a great price. Stylish

No display on remote or receiver ; no independent streaming ; can't stream Internet radio

The transmitter receives power and audio from your PC over a USB cable, but it's also equipped with line-level RCA jacks. A 1/8-inch stereo jack enables you to plug in a set of local speakers. The receiver is powered by an AC adapter and has line ...

The Xmod Wireless costs $120 more than Logitech¡¯s Wireless DJ, but it can¡¯t match that player¡¯s awesome remote (which displays your track list and current tune on its LCD). The Xmod wireless costs $70 more than a Squeezebox, doesn¡¯t rely on...

Creative Xmod Wireless

By Stuart Miles

Can this get your music around the house?

Streams music without obvious loss of quality, easy to set-up, wireless

Doesn't do video, might interfere with your wireless network, bulky

The Creative Xmod Wireless system allows you to get music from one room to another without having to trail cables around your home simply and easily

April 2008 - It's all very well having a large music collection on your computer, but it's no good if you want to listen to your music elsewhere around the house, but can Creative's Xmod Wireless system be the answer? In both cases the Xmod...

Creative Xmod Wireless

There seems to be a modern obsession for enjoying media as far from the source as possible. Slingboxes enable us to watch television from a Web café in Phuket and Orb gives us access to our MP3 files from darkest Siberia

Upscaled audio quality, Attractive and understated

Quite pricey, A display on the receiver unit would have been nice

Delivers a great audio performance even via wireless connection

While the ambition of Creative's X-Mod Wireless doesn't stretch to trotting the globe, the ability to enjoy MP3s with the same polish on your living room sound system as on your PC's tinny tweeters is a noble-enough endeavour. A tale of two...

Creative Xmod Wireless

The problem with streaming media from your PC around your house is that what you usually end up with is slightly laggy and/or compressed music being pumped through high quality speakers, which makes it sound bloody awful

Excellent audio quality, Near lagless and lossless stream, Gorgeous aesthetics

Slightly too expensive for us

The union of X-Fi and streaming is every bit as technically uncompromising and stunningly sexy as you hoped it would beBuy it.

Cables, we do not like. Not to our computer, but still less in our living room. Now there are complex solutions around media gateways. Or you can, with Creative, the wireless version of the speaker cable .

The Xmod Wireless is a very simple device that even no software needed. Two identical containers in black pianolak - fingerprints alarm! - Contain a large volume knob, as control buttons and a row connections. Each bowl is a small remote .

Creative Xmod Wireless Price: 199 euro (October 2007) An audiophile solution we dare not mention, but the Creative Xmod Wireless is the first truly useful wireless cable replacement with a robust arsenal of features. The Xmod Wireless ...

With Creative Xmod Wireless, you can wirelessly and easily listen to music throughout the house .

Easy to set up and use. Provides a good and interference-free sound .

No slärm in either broadcast-users or beneficiaries. Limited ability to control music playback with remote control. Something expensive .

US Note: This is an automatic translation. The text can differ from the original review.

Creative Xmod Wireless is a small and simple product for anyone looking for a network player. The simple design and streamlined user interface makes this a good product, despite some slightly weaker sides. The sound, for example, a certain loudness-charac...
