Audiophile Quality Meets Powerful Audio Processing

Hear In-game Cues with Scout Mode

Activate Scout Mode to give yourself a distinct tactical advantage! This tried and tested technology 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 pinpoint yours!

Xamp Discrete Headphone Bi-amp

The jewel in the Sound BlasterX G6’s proverbial crown is our custom-designed Xamp discrete headphone amplifier. As opposed to single amplification found in other gaming DAC amps, Xamp amplifies both audio channels individually. You’ll enjoy more detailed audio on highs, mids, and bass.

Xamp will drive any gaming headset excellently, but it goes even further than that. The ultra-low 1Ω output impedance perfectly drives performance-grade sensitive 16Ω in-ear monitors all the way to studio-grade 600Ω headphones.

130 dB, 32-bit / 384 kHz DAC

The specifications of the Sound BlasterX G6 are impressive. It serves as a 32-bit 384kHz DAC with an ultra-high dynamic range of 130dB. The DAC features an oversampled multi-bit modulator with mismatch shaping technology that eliminates distortion, ensuring that audio is streamed with the highest level of detail and fidelity. The Sound BlasterX G6 also supports hi-res PCM and DoP audio formats.

Balance Your Audio with GameVoice Mix

Find the Perfect Balance and Be Focused on Your Game

GameVoice Mix* is now available for PlayStation users on the G6! This feature gives you game audio / chat balance capabilities so that you can find the perfect balance with ease and be focused on the game!

Without having to pause or leave your game’s screen, you can seamlessly adjust your game’s audio and teammates’ chat volume directly on the G6 via the volume control knob. Teammates getting too rowdy on the other end? Control how loud you want them to be by switching between the volume levels of their chat and the game’s audio level.

All it takes is a one-time setup, and this feature is always ready when you need it.

*GameVoice Mix is available on PS4, PS4 Pro, PS4 Slim, and PS5 only via optical cable connection. PS5 will require an additional (not included) HDMI to Optical converter.
