Diamond Sonic Impact S100 Explosive 3D PCI Audio Acceleration

Diamond's Sonic Impact S100 Explosive 3D PCI Audio Acceleration features enhanced support of DirectSound 3D and near-field proximity effects, so that sounds, such as a whisper in the ear or an ultraclose flyby, are more realistic. Sonic Impact is able to produce more realistic sound because its digital streams are processed independently, so sound effects come from multiple positions at once. The result is high-fidelity audio with complete 360-degree horizontal and vertical positioning.

You can also accelerate up to 16 independent, CD-quality DirectSound 3D audio streams in hardware simultaneously. This eases the burden on your central processing unit and increases overall system performance. All this adds up to more bandwidth for 3-D audio enhanced graphics, video, and improved multi- channel support.

With Sensaura's unique algorithm, the Sonic Impact S100 performs 3-D virtualization to stereo speakers. So, whether you are listening to your favorite tunes or immersed in an audio-intensive game, you never need to be without realistic 3-D sounds.

Sonic Impact S100 delivers a full spectrum of sounds and effects with support for DirectSound, DirectSound 3D, A3D, EAX, and I3D Level 2 for optimal compatibility. It also comes with software enabling you to play MP3 and WMA audio files on your desktop, and to create your own music on your PC and upload it on the Web.
