Cool impromptu interview with Creative's marketing folks by Gaming Shogun. Unfortunately, I think the guy from Creative confused some folks when he said compression technology. This product uses Avnera's chipset and wireless audio protocol. I can firmly state that this is uncompressed audio. It is full bandwidth, 48 KHz stereo to the headphones, and wideband 16 KHz on the voice back-channel. As he said, the protocol is full duplex. I've read some interesting threads around the internet about this interview, and gamers have every reason to be skeptical with all the noise out there in the market, in general. But I am pretty confident the audio quality of this headset will impress even the most difficult-to-please.
