Creative Labs today announced what it is calling "the first complete audio system for DirectSound 3D." This system combines the Sound Blaster PCI128 sound card with the Cambridge SoundWorks PCWorks FourPointSurround multi-speaker system.
This system features four-channel audio output, which makes use of Sound Blaster PCI technology, and a five-piece speaker system - four satellites and a powered subwoofer - based on the PCWorks speaker system from Cambridge SoundWorks.
The system supports Microsoft's DirectSound and DirectSound3D and comes with four 2.75-inch- cube satellite speakers and a powered subwoofer with bass level control and contoured amplification.
The system has an estimated price of US$149 and is shipping, initially at least, with Activision's 14-level OEM edition of Battlezone.
