HIGH-RESOLUTION PLAYBACK Is your default PC audio enough?

The sound card is capable of delivering high-fidelity playback resolution of up to 24-bit / 192 kHz at 120 dB DNR, giving you a huge performance boost to your computer's sound-bringing out the best in your music, movies, and games! CINEMATIC SURROUND SOUND Immerse yourself in all your movies and games with the Sound Blaster Audigy Fx V2! Hook up your 5.1 home speaker system or amplifier to upgrade your cinematic experience with its 5.1 channel outputs, or plug in your headphones for an equally immersive 5.1 virtual surround listening experience. AMPLIFY YOUR HEADPHONES Turn up the volume and enjoy some high-quality listening on your studio-grade headphones. The Sound Blaster Audigy Fx V2 is capable of driving high impedance 600Ω headphone with no loss of quality at any volume!

SCOUT MODE On the gaming front, the Sound Blaster Audigy Fx V2 is coupled with Scout Mode, which lets you hear your enemies before you see them. It enhances important in-game audio cues—such as footsteps and weapon switching sounds—allowing you to quickly and accurately pinpoint your opponents' location before they do! COMMUNICATE SMARTER WITH SMARTCOMMS KIT Our SmartComms Kit was developed to fix one common issue for Windows users—to simplify the way we communicate online—via a suite of smart communication features. Why fuss over mute controls or get distracted by unwanted background noises when you should be focusing on what matters instead? Plus, it can be used with any headsets or headphones with microphones! With features such as VoiceDetect that automatically unmutes you as you speak, and NoiseClean that provides two-way noise cancellation which cancels static background noise during a call, your conversations will be more productive, and less disruptive. MUTE AND UNMUTE YOURSELF AUTOMATICALLY Have you ever been caught in a situation where you asked a question and anxiously waiting for a response from your teammates, or tried sharing your ideas with your co-workers, only to realize you were on mute? Our VoiceDetect feature controls your mute status by voice detection as you speak—your microphone gets muted automatically when you stop speaking, and unmutes you instantly as you start speaking. There is absolutely no need to fiddle with any buttons—physical or in-app— so it keeps you focused on your train of thought. TWO-WAY NOISE CANCELLATION NoiseClean-in analyzes your incoming audio (imagine someone with a noisy background in your video call), detecting and suppressing the unwanted noises, before sending just their clean voice to you through your headphones. NoiseClean-out does the same—but for your own background noise. And don't just take our words for it. Hear it for yourself! When you're done with your online meeting, turn off the NoiseClean features and continue with normal media playback with the Sound Blaster Audigy FX V2 for the best audio experience. The NoiseClean features work best for static background noises such as fans, air conditioning, air purifier, humidifiers, vacuum cleaners, hair dryers, electric shavers, and even lawn mowers. CONNECT CONVENIENTLY No more performing unnecessary stretches just to plug in your headphones or speakers! The Sound Blaster Audigy FX V2 comes with individual playback end points for Front and Rear Panel stereo output. The sound card is also capable of recognizing 4-pole headsets and connectors, simply plug in your device to enjoy! BUILT COMPACT The Sound Blaster Audigy FX V2 is designed in half-height form factor and comes with interchangeable half-height or full height mounting brackets to suit your PC configuration, giving you the flexibility of installing the sound card in a small form factor desktop PC. ADDITIONAL ENHANCEMENT WITH DBPRO Want to boost your audio even further? We got you covered! The Sound Blaster Audigy Fx V2 is upgradable with the purchase of Sound Blaster Audigy Fx V2 DBPro—an optional daughterboard expansion card. Connecting it to the Sound Blaster Audigy Fx V2 gives you DSD256 playback support, full 7.1 discrete surround sound, and addition of an optical-out port to complement your PC audio upgrade journey!
