Club Overclocker Recommends Auzen X-Tension DIN

The X-Tension DIN brings another layer of compatibility to an already fantastic line of Auzentech sound cards. It is nice to see support for so many additional devices can be so easy to install. With a price tag around $60 the X-Tension is not for everyone but for those who need the D9 support or additional ports for their home theater setup it is a Godsend. I am amazed that Creative has dropped support for their own interface but the upcoming Auzentech X-Fi Prelude shows that they have earned the rare right to bring these technologies to the table. Simply put you probably don't need the X-Tension DIN's additional ports for most audio setups out there today; but if you do there is no better way to get it than by picking up an Auzentech sound card and the X-Tension DIN.

If you're a professional musician who was desperate for MIDI support or better microphone capabilities, then these additions may just turn your head. Similarly, if you were in need of more digital outputs and inputs for whatever reason, the X-Tension helps to put Auzentech's offerings ahead of the pack. For many non-professionals however, the inclusion of the 9-pin DIN connector used by certain Creative Labs speaker sets will be music to the ears (no pun intended) of all those people who were let down by the X-Fi dropping support for this functionality...and its return thanks to the X-Tension...may well be the deal breaker that draws users in to the Auzentech fold.
