Incredible audio in a compact size, that's what the new Asus Xonar U7 MKII sound card is all about. Integrated on the portable body of Asus Xonar U7 MKII are some cool features that give an impressive sound output for the users. It is perfect for PC gamers who want detailed audio output as well as good sounds while media streaming.
The Asus Xonar U7 MKII uses plug-and-play USB connectivity. There won't be a need to look for an extra outlet; just connect it directly to the laptop or PC to experience amazing audio. It has 7.1 channel surround sound giving a home theater boost experience. The sound quality is maintained all throughout with the use of 192kHz/24-bit high definition output. A high Signal-To-Noise of 114 dB makes noise floor almost unrecognizable. There is reduced sound distortion thanks to the ASUS Hyper Grounding PCB fabrication.
Both speakers and headphones can be connected at the same time to the Asus Xonar U7 MKII. There isn't a need to remove either one of them since switching between the two is a breeze with the use of "clickable output selector" integrated on the volume control knob. The volume knob also allows the user uninterrupted sound control especially in the middle of the game or during media streaming.
The Asus Xonar U7 MKII is equipped with the latest Sonic Studio Software. Full control of every aspect concerning sounds, such as input and output devices, tuning, microphone, equalization, 7.1 speaker balance and more can be accessed on the Sonic Studio navigation page. Sonic Radar Pro, a heads-up-display, is also included in the system. This allows the player to recognize footsteps and gunshots locations in-game and displays it on an on-screen overlay giving the user advantage on a first-person shooter game. The Sonic Studio is compatible with Windows 10 according to Asus.
The main audio processor used for Asus Xonar U7 MKII is CMedia CMI6632AX High-performance sound processor.
