Hello, I just joined, primarily for the audiophile products. Looking at purchasing the NHT C3 speakers for our new living room. Space is about 15 feet wide by 33 long and they will fire long ways. Space is just for general listening, music room with all equipment is downstairs, so hoping they will fill it with sound nicely. Cheers.

I take it you are console gaming rather than PC gaming with this amp? After you have appropriately setup this amp for your gaming needs, and assuming you buy a decent set of cans to go with it if you are not using something other than astro cans, I think you will find that you have no reason to crank any volumes under any circumstance as everything will be clear and easily audible for you at that point, getting away from astro will be a nice upgrade and the X7 is a wonderful entry level device.
im assuming you thought i bought the astro bundle, no i solely bought the mixamp for the functionality of having a game and chat audio mixer.
if im being difficult im sorry but i just see complaints left and right about the app in the google play store and you didnt necessarily answer my question.
if i unplug it outright i never get any frequency problems, but i cant use mic to chat.
I am waiting on a pair of 6xx, currently using some AKG240PRO II.
the 6xx are nice but i dont like them for FPS, i use my 6xx for sim racing and i dont have to deal with the BT-W2 frequency because i disable it to focus on the sound and racing. i prefer the AKG701s or AD700x for FPS
just have to resolve this noisy bluetooth option
The firmware update made a big difference for the Bluetooth reliability though..
Try turning off direct mode. It will allow the x7 take over audio processing from the ps4.. That might also help you.

i bumped the impedance to 300 ohm to capture it from my phone but that ringing is what i hear anytime i use the bt w2. i think i might have to contact creative but i hear its a nightmare getting through. dont feel like buying a new one because i dont feel like it would work still
I have contacted Creative through their live chat and was able to get some help there - you could try that too.
Side note: the aftermarket headphone cable I bought for my AKG's was not compatible with the x7, just always sounded like it was missing a channel even though it worked perfectly on another amp. Try switching the cabling Also. If there is anything else I can help with, send me an email, my username@gmail.
I'll take this up directly with my product team as well.
Can you contact me at socialmedia@creativelabs.com. I want to get my engineering folks on this for you and see if we can get you a solution. Definitely sounds like it's not working as intended...and I know the product team members will want to try and recreate on our side.
Thanks!
Ill include a updated audio sample if anyone else has the same problem or has a solutions cuz I've tried over 20 different troubleshooting solutions with their support team and it always turns into ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ when it doesnt work.
https://1drv.ms/u/s!AmAN0uYQVq4Cgh5wdPZKGayPQxwg tell me that isnt normal.
Supplice, send me another mail at the address above and we'll swap out the unit to see if it rectifies the problem. The engineering team has been unable to reproduce in house. The sound file is definitely not the intended output.
