Creative doesnt sell 7.1 Speaker Systems anymore?

Not that my current speaker system was even intended for 7.1 Setup; I sitll use it for 5.1
I cannot find any 7.1 speaker systems, Creative is only selling one 5.1: Inspire T6160; I am using currently the Inspire: 7800
I think my volume control is becoming defective so I thought of finding something equivelant if not better but I'm not having any luck.
And I dont think it might be a big deal but my 7800 gives me 8 watts per channel I think; T6160 gives me 6watts per. And the subwoofer gives 24 watts vs 20 watts with 6160
But does anyone own this 6160? Think its worth it? Like I said the 7800 is a 7.1 Speaker Setup; and the 6160 is only a 5.1; again it doesnt matter to me except the watts I listed above.
Is creative gonna come out with a new set of speakers soon?
Thanks

I have bought today the Creative Inspire T7800 - T7900 use the subwoofer with my Creative Gigaworks S750 - 7 sat speakers. It is working well.

  • Issues with Creative Speaker Systems 7700 and 7800

    I have had very little success with Creative Inspire T7700 and P7800 speaker systems. The problems started when the left rear channel on my T7700 stopped working. I spent an hour or so localizing it down to the multi channel amplifier that's located in the sub woofer cabinet. I swapped the speakers around to see if the speaker was blown and I swapped the T7700 to my other computers to see if the problem was in my sound card (I have 3 computers 2 of them have Audigy cards and one of them has an X-FI sound card). The problem stayed with the left rear channel so it is definitely the T7700. Since it was off warranty I went and bought a P7800. After getting it home and unpacking all the speakers and making all the connections I found the left front channel non functional. I took that system back to the retailer and they exchanged it for another P7800. I brought that one home and found the right rear channel to be non functional. I returned that to the retailer and got my money back. I have several older speaker systems from Creative including a nice 5.1 channel system (the 5200) that has worked flawlessly for many years. My question is this: Why is the quality of these newer speaker systems so poor? And has anyone else had this kind of problem? So far I am living with the dead channel on the T7700 but would like to eventually get everything working again.

    p3dlow,
    Any speaker system that can receive input from a single 3.5mm stereo minijack should work with a MP3 player. Are you looking for a 2.1, 2.0, portable or docking station? Btw, exactly which player do you have?

  • How to interconnect Creative 7.1 Speaker system to

    HI All,?I have bought a Creative 7. Speaker system. I have connected it to my TV using the Audio Out (left & right) to the Auxiliary In of the 7. speaker system and now only 3 speakers are producing the sound. The center and the surround speakers have no output. Please guide me on how I can interconnect this 7. system with my TV and get the speakers working. Thanks in advance.Chris?

    Headphone jack on all current Mac models (include latest aluminum iMac) doubles as SPDIF digital optical output as well. In other words, both analog (for headphone/line-out) and digital audio outputs are built into the same combo jack. Same analog/digital implementation for the audio input jack. Alternatively audio output can be sent through USB bus in digital form to external decoder. Thus unlike PC, the compact iMac does have many extra features already built-in.
    All you need is an external 5.1 decoder to decode 5.1 digital output from headphone jack or USB port into analog format with three analog outputs for Creative Inspire T6060 5.1 speaker set (woofer/centre, front L/R, surround L/R). The only such decoder I have come across is Tutle Beach's Audio Advantage SRM (www.turtlebeach.com) though there are many surround audio decoders/receivers (mostly with SPDIF optical outputs) on sale in audio equipment shops. Take note that Creative Inspire T6060 is active speaker (amplifier built-in) whereas outputs from some surround decoders/receivers are meant for passive speakers. The difference is between low line level outputs (for active speakers) vs high amplified outputs (for passive speakers).
    Optical Toslink cable with two different connectors on both ends (standard Toslink / 3.5mm Mini Plug) is required to connect between headphone jack output and external 5.1 decoder input. In case when USB port is used, any good USB cable built for peripherals (printer, external drive etc) will do.
    Since I never play game and hardly watch movies with my new aluminum iMac, only good stereo audio is required for music appreciation with following setup:
    iMac USB port -> Firestone Fubar3 DAC -> Firestone Tube Head Pre-amplifier (vacuum tube) -> Harman Kardon SoundStick2 speaker
    Hope the information will help.

  • Can Creative made a 5.1 highend speaker system ?

    Maybe Creative should made the next T7 Series with real 5.1 speakers system with 116db to complement the Sound Blaster Z series. T6 II speakers are only 2.1 speakers. They should make the 4 speakers detachable for T6 II and add 1 more speaker with a special clip to clip the center speaker ontop of pc LCD monitor.

    Hello joebono,
    I'm not sure which logitech system you have so I don't know what your setup is. I know on my computer my Logitech 5.1 sound system is USB.
    With that being said there is not enough ports on the computer to connect all the cables to the computer to make a standard 5.1 surround system work. What you need is a speaker system where everything connects to the sub woofer and then you connect the woofer to the computer.
    Alternatively like I mentioned on my own personal system is you have a speaker system powered through USB.
    This thread also discusses the issue you are experiencing.

  • Speaker systems use with creative mp3 player.

  • Older creative speaker system. need support,but none listed??? perplexed here.

    Don't you just love these sites or vendors, that over time discontinue support or any other for products yuo puchased from them. What is up with that?
    My problem is I have the T7700 7.1 surround sound system i purchsed back in 2003 or thereabouts. Since that time, i have not had any issues with this system,but i do now, and find that the newest version of same essentially, is the PT7800. About the same sysem but newer, and TBH, not as good as what i have now.
    I am trying to JUST get some customer support,which i think they should let one write an email to, and they use the typ. required fields for fill in boxes,of which none apply to what i'm trying to inquire about. I guess my only other alternative,which again is common these days, is to either go to this forum, and or last resort, 'call them in person over the phone. I guess i'll have to use that option, or just reside to the fact that i now have to buy another speaker system. That hurts only bercasue like us all, i have priorities all set for my needed future upgrades, and not the monies to invest in a new system. Come ot find out i have only (4) of the seven speakers working, and all are connected to right plugins on the woofer side panel.
    Any suggestions on what i should do here

    Sorry, but I'm not entirely clear about what you were trying to ask in your post.
    As for Creative, they've changed their policy on support and will only provide support to products that are under warranty, and phone support is only available for a short period after purchase unless you buy a separate support/service package.
    If you only have 4 satellite speakers, you can connect them as the front left and right, and rear left and right, and continue to use the speaker system as a 4 channel system. Be sure to set?the speaker set-up for your sound card to reflect that you have 4 channel (might be incorrectly called 4.1) system, otherwise sound may be directed to your missing speakers.
    If all of your speakers are working and you only have sound coming from 4 speakers, then check the speaker or output set-up from your sound card or on-board sound to insure that you have set that up as a 7.1 system.

  • Creative Audigy And Speak System Not Loud.

    I built an entertainment computer, running Windows Media Center 05, back in June. The entire time I've had it, it's been very quiet as far as the sound goes. I've finally had it, so I'm trying to get some help. The system is an AMD 2800+ with 52MB RAM; I have an Audigy 2 ZS and a "Creative Inspire P7800 90 Watts 7." Speaker system. To hear movies, mp3s, music videos, and so forth, I must turn the PC volume all the way up as well as the little wheel that is attached to the subwoofer all the way up. I still continually have friends complaining they can't hear movies when we're watching them... How can I get these systems to play louder, as I feel they ought to be doing by default?

    ...just use the normal stereo output (green plug) for 2. speakers. Despite the name, there is no separate "sub" input on ANY 2. speakers on the market: they all work with a stereo signal, and the sub channel is separated by a low-pass filter inside the speaker's amp itself.

  • Creative I-Trigue L3450 Speaker System

    Hi.
    I am interested in the above product but was just wondeirng if anybody could answer some questions for me.
    Is it possible to plug a USB MP3 player into the controller of this system and have the music played? The following link seems to suggest that a USB MP3 player can be plugged in:
    http://www.boysstuff.co.uk/product.a...id=&src=Search (st picture)
    Can Anybody confirm this?
    Also, must this system be connected to a PC or can it simple be plugged into the mains and have MP3 players etc run off it's
    Any help would be brilliant!
    Thanks!

    badboyuk,
    The USB port on the volume control is what we call a M-PORT. Basically, it does what you mention by it's only compatible with M-PORT compatible player and as far as I know, only the Creative MuVo NX is supported. The speaker doesn't need to be connected to the computer only. You can connect to any audio source that's using a 3.5mm stereo minijack output.
    You can also download the user guide for this speaker from the Product Documentation page for more information regarding the speaker system.

  • Conecting Creative Jukebox to a Speaker System

    Hi! What I want to achieve is to listen to music from my Jukebox mp3 player on a 5.1 or 7.1 speaker system and listen to it through all the speakers. Is this possible to do without a computer? Can the speaker system upmix the stereo line-in input to a 5.1 or 7.1 sound through the speakers?
    I'd appreciate any ideas or experiences if anyone has tried to do this and has either succeeded or failed.
    Thanks for your help!!!!

    No, you won't be able to listen to all the speakers with a combination like that one. The outputs on our Jukeboxes are only stereo. If you have the Jukebox 3, it has 2 outputs, which would give you 4 speaker sound, but that's the most you'll get.
    I would advise using stereo speakers, or if you really want more sound, to get a DDTS-100 decoder. The decoder can upmix sound to more speakers, so even if the source is only stereo (2 channel).

  • Speaker System Mac OS X

    Hello everybody,
    I've got a iMac with Mac OS X and I have also an 5.1 Speaker System. But now I've got a problem with the speakers..
    The system properties of the iMac (and also the Mac-seller) said that -when you put the green plug in the line-out of the PC- the sound is transformed to front, center & rear speakers. But I've the problem, I put the green plug in it and I only get the Front-sound. Is the problem about the iMac? Or is it about the speakers?
    Thanks for now on,
    Kees

    A USB sound card would allow you to do this. Creative has a few products, like this, that should work fine.

  • Which speaker system is better: Inspire 5200 or 5300?

    Hi,
    I'm just about to :smileyindifferent: buy new Creative speaker systems. Unfortunately, in my country and city options are scarce. Only few models are available and I am trying to get a good, decent sound, with good bass for bassy songs (i.e. dance, hip-hop), and good sound in general for PC-based games and DVDs.
    I am given two choices: Creative Inspire 5200 and 5300. The big question: which one is better? I supposed that since 5300 is a bigger number than 5200, the 5300s should be better; but I may be wrong (e.g. the total RMS power of the 5200s is slightly higher than the 5300s!), so... somebody can give me a piece of advice on this?
    I am willing to spend as much as USD$50.00 on my new speakers... so if someone has better speakers in mind for that price, I'm open to suggestions. With luck, I can give them a try.
    Regards.

  • Broke volume remote control = means buy a new speaker system??

    I was bought a speaker system Creative 7.1 T7700 in 2004. After year 6 months, the volume remote control stop functioning correctly. When i adjust volume, the output sound is not stable, some times get loud and quiet. My speaker already out of warranty. Who can repair the volume remote control? If Creaitve can repair it, how much will be charge on it's Why Creative don't sell this accessories? Because of this, make me stopping purchase Creative product........................................... ......

    Daniel
    Thank you. But i don't where is the knob or what is knob? It's inside the remote control or the plug pluging into the speaker?
    Why they do not replace a new one to me? Because of this is about their products quality problem.
    When i searching wired remote, not just me have this problem.
    But Creative change a replacement to them.

  • A solution to the S750 speaker system problem

    Well my s750 died just like everybody elses. But after creative wanted me to pay 75% of my purchase price, I found a better solution. Nope, I am not fixing the unit like you guy's. I do not see the need to fix a poorly design system! I am not sure if creative or indigo/bash/blade audio is to be blamed. But if I had to pick, I would say "indigo/bash/blade audio". Years ago before blade audio became indigo, I had a chance to visit their location in ontario Canada. This was just when they stop making the blade audio car amps.
    While I was there, I happened to see this long list of brand names they had started to make amp modules for. Names like Harman International, Klipsch and so on. Anyway I cast the blame on indigo for this reason: Some years ago I had purchased a set of "harman international" infinity IL series speakers. Like our creative s750, the infinity shares a bash powered subwoofer system. And just like the s750 the infinity subwoofer like to blow up too! In the case of the infinity, the power supply was the weak link. The amp module in the infinity at that time, was built just like the blade audio car amps before. Which in my opinion is a much better design than what is being used in the s750. I remember one of the sale guy at circuit city at the time saying, "I wish we would drop this model". He went on to tell me the failure on the powered units were very high. You know there is a problem when the mid level Creative Inspire T7700 7.1, out last the flagship s750. Now, whats my better solution you guy's want to know? Two words , Simplifi Digital! The 7075a 7.1 amplifier along with Definitive Technology Pro Sub1000 and the remaing surround speakers from my s750 system. Yes, it did cost me more to go this route. But what I now have is a much more reliable system. And a sound that the s750 can only dream about. My s750 died while I was listening to Dave Bruebeck quartet "take five" at mid volume. With my current setup, I can listen mid volume all day long with no hiccups.
    For those who my have the cash to spend. I recommend looking at my direction!? Keep this in mind, make sure whatever powered subwoofer you choose, is adjustable up to 50hz. The creative surround speakers dont play very well below 20hz. Also make sure whatever powered sub you choose don't use a BASH amplifier. For those looking at the s750 as a purchase, good luck. Or go over to partsexpress.com and get the Dayton Part Number 300-670, surround speakers. Then get the simplifi digital 7075 7.1 amplifier and power subwoofer of your choice and make a better/best system. Sorry Creative Labs! This post is NOT intended to cast negativity. I use and like the products you offer. I just do not like the s750, and the reasons are all over this forum and elsewhere on the net. I currently own 3 audigy 2zs sound cards, three Inspire t7700 speaker system, three sound blasters modems and yes, one defective/dead s750 speaker system. If anything use this post as a positive to what Creative Labs could offer in the future. A system like I now have, sure would be nice with the Creative name all over it.
