Creative Inspire P7800 Middle Right Noises

Hello,
I'm having a problem w/ my middle right speaker. I haven't had this problem before until now. My middle right speaker would make static noises when I turn on the volume. I tried unplugging the output wire to my computer and it still make the static sound so I know for sure the static isn't outputting from my computer. I tried plugging in different speaker into the Middle right port and it makes those noise. The noise is pretty annoying when I'm not playing music. It sounds like something is hissing. So is there any way I can fix the output port of my middle right output? I tried opening it but the wire connecting to the subwoofer is attached so I can't do anything about it. Any way to fix this? (I bought this like a year or 2 ago so I don't think i have manufacture warranty or do i?)

off subject a little, but i recommend buying a 60 gig off amazon.com. those were the first models to be released and they really are much better than any of the other models they have made. 40 gigs and 80 gig models really don't have all the features like backwards compatability and the four usb ports. it will cost you a little bit more but it is worth every penny.
as for the dts... i found out that will work, but i am concerned about the four linear formats that the ps3 uses. my sound card works with the two basic ones that my computer uses, but i am hoping to find out when i get windvd in the mail if the speakers will work with the other two.

Creative inspire P7800 and X-fi extreme sound card on win 7

I have a dell with windows 7, the creative X-fi Extreme sound card and my creative inspire P7800. The sound has not worked properly since receiveing the computer.
I am going to assume it is my speaker and the set up.
I currently cannot even get the option to set up the 7.1 surround speakers. It only shows two. Half the time the sound doesn't work and the other half it only works on certain sites.
I would appreciate any advice on how to trouble shoot this and get it working properly.
The driver I have currently installed is the creative ver. 6.10.0.209 dated 8/27/2009.Above this there is also another listing that says ATI High Definition Audio Device. I do have the on board sound of my motherboard disabled.
If I need to install another driver please advise me of the procedure to do it correctly.
Thank you for any help!

You may want to try downloading the card's latest driver from http://support.creative.com/Products...T=CategoryID:1
It is a new driver and is released on 28 March 2014.

Creative Inspire P7800

Hello, I have a Creative Labs Inspire P7800 7.1 audio system. It is virtually new (used it twice). Somewhere over the years I lost the power adaptor for the subwoofer. Google doesn't return many results with the info I have. I am looking for a replacement adaptor, and/or enough info to manufacture my own. The jack on the sub only says 3.5V AC in, and the manual mentions it but doesn't contain any details . Any info would be appreciated, such as: part number for adapter, amperage of adaptor, type of jack (probalbly have one that fits it), and which pin is + and -.
I'm rather electronics savy and have decent soldering skills, so making my own adaptor isn't out of the question. Also, I'm trying to avoid taking it apart to determine more. Thanks.

Ok, upon searching the forums (should have done this first), it looks like the model # is UA 460. The power is 3.5V AC 6 Amps.
Is there any sort of internal rectifier? Wil it accept DC Voltage (I assume there is an internal rectifier that converts the AC to DC)?

Creative Inspire P7800 Don't Work

Seems all i get is hiss, and 2 speakers of the 7 Working. I have read all the posts, and i don't see much mention of 7800 series, but it seems to be the cabling. I would like to know how i can get this system working. I would also like to know to whom i would have to call to have this problem corrected. I almost bought the logitech speaker system, and after reading all the posts here, i wish i had.

well i just posted twice about the P7800. Turns out the cable they send you is made for their Creative Sound cards, so if you want one to work with any other 7.1 Sound card you need to call them and order it, The cable they send you has 3 jacks. Center/Sub, Front and rear, or somethig or other, But it doesnt have teh side speakers, the Blue plug. Call their Customer Service.

If you are getting sound when you are "testing" but not when trying to play files it could be that you didn't connect your cd rom to your sound card's auxillary (for playing cd or dvd) or you have certain file types muted...for example...it is possible you have wave muted...but midi is not. check your volume control properties and see what is marked with a red X...creative is notorious for having some sources muted.
STUPID QUESTION #1, With the Diamond Plus Sound card having sound card on board the MB, where do I find the AUX of the sound card?
STUPID QUESTION #2 I recall years ago having similar issues with a sound blaster card, and yes it was related to some things being muted. Where are those volume control property settings, and what are the proper settings?

Inspire P7800 vs. Inspire T7900?

What's the difference between the Creative Inspire P7800 and Inspire T7900? The only difference I can see is that the mini tweeters in the left, center, and right speakers wit hthe T7900 set are missing in the P7800 set. Is the sound quality really different, or what?

gaboritz,
The speaker is connected to the computer soundcard and the soundcard is the one that's interacting with the OS. If there is no sound from the speaker, there is only 2 possibility. Either the speaker is faulty or the soundcard is faulty or not interacting properly with the new OS.
Have you try updating to the latest soundcard driver?

Creative Inspaire P7800 Replacement Cable

I am trying to find a replacement cable for my 7.1 Creative Inspire P7800. The cable I need is the 4:3 cable that runs from the subwoofer to the sound card. One of my cats chewed through one of the wires, and I am having a difficult time finding a replacement. I called customer support, but they don't carry that particular cable anymore. Any information I can get would be very helpful. Thanks!
*edit* I have a Creative Audigy 2 Value sound card. Is this cable even needed? Or can I used a regular 4:4 cable? Or two 2:2 cables? Help!

Side, back, and center speaker on inspire p7800 not working, PLEASE HELP!

I have had the inspire p7800 speakers for awhile, and they worked great, the sound was really great. Then a little while ago, the side, back, and center speaker stopped working. If i turn the volume up, i can hear a kind of static noise in them, but when i play a game or listen to music they don't do anything. i have an Audigy 2 zs sound card, and i just installed all the creative mediasource software. I was using the speakers fine without the software, but i read on a different post, that you can turn on cmss in the EAX control panel. i installed all the stuff, but i can't find the EAX console anywhere on my computer. all the mediasource is is a music player, and a file converter. The speakers stopped working about a week before this, and i unplugged everything and repluged it. After that the center speaker didn't work, but the others did. but now only the front left, and front right speakers work. Please help me with this problem.

If it doesn't power up then it's either the subwoofer or power adaptor that's faulty. So the only thing you can do is contact customer support or the vendor.

I have copied the advice I received/didnt recieve from creative.

Dear Martin
Thanks for your reply
I am sorry for the problem you are facing.
To achieve outputs from all the speaker during speaker test, you will need to have an analog connection, or digital DIN connection.
That will be possible if you connect the three line out jacks on your soundcard, to the three audio input (analog jacks->green,black,orange) on your speaker, if it has this connection. Or, you may connect them using Digital DIN, if they have this connection.
If you are using digital connection (coaxial, optical), there will be no way to achieve sound output from all the speakers during 5. speaker test, as they carry stereo signal.

Hello
Your email was helpful, unfortunately, not for my unit, you see I would
have
connected the Jack leads in by now if the inspire had Jack lead inputs
as
you describe
Please don't think I am being sarcastic, but from reading the
correspondence
below it would seem as if your department is having difficulty
understanding
my problem.
Also it would seem your department doesn't have the necessary technical
information on your very own product, so to help with your dilemma I
have
taken photos of the input/outputs on the Inspire unit.
You will clearly see the inspire has no inputs other than Coaxial and
Optic.
This leaves me back to my last post. I think the solution would be for
me to
purchase the correct processor, which would have come with the original
sound card had I not been a little tight on the money front.
I have attached a photo of the sound card with the processor, I would

to buy this processor but find myself unable to locate this product on

item so I can buy this Processor Please?

Your soundcard is Audigy 2 ZS
Your speaker is Creative Inspire 5. Digital 5500
You will need to have a 3:3 cable(with the color green, black, orange)
to connect your soundcard to your speaker, to achieve the 5. effects
with games.
Below is the connection:
- Connect line out jack of Audigy 2 ZS
to 'Front' of Creative Inspire 5. Digital 5500 using the green color
connection
- Connect line out 2 jack of Audigy 2 ZS
to 'Rear' of Creative Inspire 5. Digital 5500 using the black color
connection
- Connect line out 3 jack of Audigy 2 ZS
to 'Center/Subwoofer' of Creative Inspire 5. Digital 5500 using the
orange color connection
Once you have done the correct connection, play the game DOOM3.
Ensure you have selected either the EAX or surround option in the game
settings.
Does it work?

You have lost me. Your sound card clearly states that I can have EAX
surround decoding from the sound card I have purchased.
All of the games on your web site claim to give me an environmental
effect
that will blow my mind, hence EAX.
All I have done wrong is NOT buying your decoder that comes with the
sound
card. My mistake.
All I want to do is re-address this issue and buy the correct
decoder/processor.
Can you point me to the correct link on your web site so I can buy the
correct decoder/processor?
As for the PCM out of the above cables, this foxes me as my other
equipment
only use Optical cabling on my Lexicon processor and from that I have DD
7., DTS 7. and meridian 5. lossless.
My issue is more to do with NO EAX from the rear and centre channels
while
in-game.

Thanks for your reply
All commercial digital connection eg. optical or coaxial cable will only
carry PCM stereo signal. If you want to output the signal to a surround
5. with extra EAX environment effects, it will not be possible at all
since it is only restricted to stereo channel signal.
As per current industry limitations, we are bound to follow the standard
one-signal output for all our SPDIF and Optical output jacks. This is
something that is currently shared by all vendors for all products.
Please note that all games are not dolby digital, even they are , it
will require certain motherboard to encode it to dolby digital signal,
which our soundcard does not support.
You can only use analog connections to gain true 5. surround for
gaming..

Dear Martin
Thank you for the reply.
Computer games written with support for 3D audio do not require a Dolby
Digital Interacti've Content Encoder (DICE) to output multichannel sound,
with no exceptions. Sound devices that support the real time encoder
technology from Dolby will simply receive the multichannel wave file
output and encode it in real time to a somewhat modified Dolby Digital
bitstream. Creative does not support the Dolby Digital Interacti've
Content Encoder on any of its sound cards.
The only difference between a Sound Blaster card and an audio card that
has a real time encoder, is that you can make a one-wire, digital
connection from your audio card to your home theater receiver and enjoy
discrete multichannel sound from the game. However there will be a
continuous, slight delay, known as "latency", as the encoder is creating
and transmitting the bitstream, and of course the compression scheme
being used is "lossy" (i.e. not bit-accurate).
If you want to enjoy 3D audio in 3D enabled PC games in multichannel
surround sound with a Sound Blaster card, it is recommended that you
connect the analog outputs of the sound card directly to the analog
inputs of the receiver. This will require 3 cables for 5. surround
sound, one for front right and left, one for rear left and right, and
another one for front center and subwoofer. Though it requires more
cables than a real time encoder system, it will not have any latency
issues. When connecting PC audio to a home theater receiver, Creative's
latest sound cards such as Sound Blaster Audigy, Sound Blaster Audigy 2
are likely to provide higher quality audio than any Dolby Digital real
time encode system available for the PC today.

Inspire T5400 Bad Screeching Noise

Hello,
I just got the Creative Inspire T5400 5.1 speaker system from Newegg a half a week ago and everything seems to sound really good... except for the fact that when these speakers idle right after a song or loud noise in a game, they will make this really weird noise that's very high in frequency. My parents can't hear it (the older you get, the more hearing loss :S), neither can my sister, but I can and it really distracts me from the good sound coming from these speakers. This doesn't only happen when some loud noise or song finishes, sometimes they'll do it constantly while there is a lot of sound and it really throws you off.
I'm not sure how you can describe the noise, I mean, it's high pitch... but the closest I can compare this to is if you have ever heard someone turn on night vision in a game, that screeching noise that goes up is pretty close to what these speakers do. I know it's not my sound card because I just had it replaced by a Sound Blaster Live! 24-bit and this issue still takes place. I don't know if these speakers are somewhat defected or if it's just what they do.
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated...

You are correct, I have exactly the same problem and am doing a second RMA on my T5400 speakers. A bit on the weird side though, when I tip the subwoofer towards me, the sound fades away momentarily. Something internally wrong indeed...

I have a Creative Inspire 6.1 6700 with Creative Live! 5.1 soundcard, but the front-middle speaker does not work!
It's not the speaker self who is defect, I test this by switchging the connector on the subwoofer with the rear-middle, then the front-middle is working right.

What can cause these problem?
Audio cables wrong connected to the audio-card?

Try enabling the CMSS feature of your 5.1 Live! sound card, You could refer to our Knowledge for more information on CMSS.

Inspire T6060 Low Humming Noise

I just received my Creative Inspire T6060 5.1 Speakers. I have the creative x-fi xtrememusic soundcard. The front left+right & center speakers seem to make a very low buzzing/humming noise. The centre speaker seems to make the most noise. What can I do to stop the buzzing? This occurs when no sound is being played through my soundcard and I can it even hear it slightly when low volume music is being played.

I finally fixed it! I found out that my wireless DECT telephone had a power cable that was unshielded, so I unplugged it and now the constant buzzing noise is gone!!! So happy to fix it..

Creative Inspire 5300 5.1 Problems - Only Two Speakers Work 100%

I recently purchased the Creative Inspire 5300 5.1 speaker system for my home computer, thinking that a low-end setup would work fine until I gathered the resources to trade them in for something better. Upon hooking them up though I find that they do not work as I was led to believe. The front two corner speakers and subwoofer work fine, just as they would if they were a 2.1 setup, however the center and back speakers make no noise. I know I have them hooked up correctly as I can go into my onboard soundcard?s setup program and test them individually, but in actually practice they do nothing. Not with games or movies that are supposedly 5.1 enabled.
I'm clueless as to what the problem may be. Is it that I need a Creative brand soundcard, that may Abit motherboard and it'ss built-in soundcard are unable to establish the proper frequencies or whatnot? Perhaps I do not have the appropriate surround sound drivers installed? Any help would be vastly appreciated.

DevNull7,
You may need to enable certain settings within your sound card to upmix the Stereo to 5.1. Check with your sound card support for further information. They should be able to assit you on this.

-or maybe my component circuit like ic,capacitor,diode burned?
If I plug n unplug the power to the sub,I can heard that 'bump'. Is that mean my circuit in good condition or maybe the charge and discharge for capacitor?
Please answer me...
Thank You

Creative inspire t6300 5.1 surround on mac pro 1.1, optical out to 5.1 audio gear (digital sound decoder).

Hi there,
Been searching and trying a lot but no luck so far. I have a surroundset Creative Inspire t6300
to be able to add some more fun to movies and a few games on my mac.
I own an upgraded Mac Pro 1.1 under Snow leopard, 2.33 gHz, dual processor, 8 core, 8 gb memory.
Even though it`s a piece for the museum, it works very well for designwork I do for work. No real need
to update for me, so....
As I understand, the optical out is standard 5.1. (By the way, the only other ports are the basic sound ports out
and in on the Mac). So after some research I found and got the 5.1 audio gear decoder. I connected this with
an opticle cable and used the 3,5 jackets from the surroundset to connect to (from left to right) cen/sw, (yellow
jacket) fl/fr (green jacket), sl/sr (black jacket) on the decoder. All perfectly understandable and it seemed to work well.
But when I tested with some of the testfile you find when googling on that, I think there is something wrong,
the typical surround effect is not there, it rather sounds more like stereo or even 5 mono`s.
I`ve tried Soundflower and JackPilot, but couldn`t get it right. With Soundflower I was able to choose 5.1 setting
(was not possible before) but testing it didn`t work.
There is an extensive test of the decoder on the net by someone who really is deep into the technics of it all but
no luck there either.
Back to basics: is it right that the optical out is truely 5.1 on the mac? With several tests the unit SFE does not react.
But when I play some music with iTunes, it works (loud and clearly :-)). Maybe I need a visit to the audiologist ;-) ?
Anyone?

Hello John, I figured it was a signal issue. All the speakers fire and the sound is great. I was running the speakers thru a Dell PC with a Creative X-Fi Elite Pro, THX Certified, 7.1 soundcard using a fiber optic from the Mac Pro to the Z906's, it worked great until the Dell died!!! When I bought the soundcard from Creative I also bought the GigaWorks S750, THX Certified, 700 watt, 7.1 speaker system, used the speakers for 11 years and then the woofer/amp said "I QUIT" Creative quit making the speaker system and the sound card. The satellite speakers from the Creative GigaWorks speaker system still sound great (rated at 78 watt each) and are a little better speaker than the one's that came with the Z906 and the wattage from the 906 is sufficient to drive the satellites without any distortion. Thank you for addressing my issue, you confirmed what I suspected all along, just needed to hear it from someone with the same setup.
One last question, I purchased a Diamond Multimedia USB Soundcard, can't use the fiber optic(not supported by Mac) but the green, tan and black RCA's plug in and produces adequetly. When you plug your 906's into the Mac Pro using the fiber optic how do you set your speaker configuration? When I plug into the mac pro with fiber optic the 'Audio Midi Setup' does not seem to see the 5.1 configuration. Any thoughts there?
