Still there are a number of features creative have let fall to the wayside.This is the flagship model compared to the T3300 dual satellite stereo system also in the Inspire line.
The last time I spent time with a high-end speaker system from Creative Labs was a review I did more than 5 years ago for their GigaWorks 500 5.1 Dolby THX speaker system. That system remained in the office pumping tunes and game audio for about 5 long years post coverage. The Creative Inspire T6300 includes two larger front satellite speakers, 2 smaller rear speaker and another smaller sized satellite for the center speaker. Each speaker is capable of 7 watts RMS per channel with the subwoofer pumping 22 watts. The dial can be used to power the system down with a click past the lowest volume. I was surprised, Creatives Inspire T6300 speaker system is about half the size of the GigaWorks 500. Across the board, the subwoofer and at least three of the satellites speakers are much smaller. Yet I was concerned the overall performance would be hamstringed in some way. The GigaWorks 500 never provided the sense of completeness that the Inspire T6300 does. That is to say, none of the 3-ranges seems to play the background to either of the others. Creative Inspire T6300 Full But BereftHighs are crystallized and full but bereft of any hollow, tinny sounds. Moreover the bass is stronger from this subwoofer than the larger and decidedly heavier GigaWorks 500 sub. I booted up few game Battlefield 3, CoD: Black Ops 2, Borderlands 2, Trine, Planetside 2 and WarFrame and watched a couple movies Madagascar 2 and Avatar. The system seems to handle positional audio better than conventional speaker systems. Plus the subwoofer features a dial on the back to enhance or decrease the bass. This came in real handy depending on the game or movie running. Without question the system performs better with the audio processing unit. Yet Creatives leading system will inpsire the most basic onboard sound processors to put on their best behavior. The scope of bass boom and volume comes from the long and wide port tubes within a speaker. Creative uses a dual set in each speaker to achieve punchier, louder booms. This is their new Dual Slot Enclosure design. With it, the speakers have deeper playback capabilities due to the dual port tube design in the smaller confined speaker housing. I definitely appreciate the enhanced crystal clarity and the additional attention to tonal accuracy.
