CLEAR AND PRECISE
Designed to elevate your desktop, gaming consoles, and TV's audio experiences, the Sound Blaster Katana V2X comes with a game-changing tri-amplified amps design, improved from Crative’s highly-raved OG Sound BlasterX Katana soundbar!

The tri-amplified amp's design is controlled by Creative’s proprietary multicore DSP. This means that each of the mid-range drivers, tweeters, and subwoofer drivers are individually driven, delivering strong and impactful sound reproduction at every frequency. The soundbar also features a double-wall chassis construction to minimize disruptive vibrations, allowing the Sound Blaster Katana V2X to deliver pristine audio effortlessly.

IMMERSIVE SURROUND 
The Sound Blaster Katana V2X delivers crystal clear and impressive room-filling sound with its 5.1 channel playback. Like its predecessor, the Sound Blaster Katana V2X is also a certified Dolby Audio1 decoder, so it can recreate the all-familiar cinematic experience in the comfort of your own home from a Dolby-certified source.

LEVEL UP YOUR GAME
Designed to be your everyday gaming companion, the Sound Blaster Katana V2X features Creative’s acclaimed gaming sound modes—SXFI BATTLE Mode and Scout Mode*—enhancing the audio system with improved surround immersion, and integrated headphone gaming functionality.

Experience unprecedented gaming audio by fully immersing yourself in the virtual environment of your games, as if you're physically present in the game. SXFI BATTLE Mode is the first and only sound mode that allows you to hear not only the directionality of where the gunshots are coming from, but distance as well, so you can accurately pinpoint your enemies' locations, down to the millimeter.

Scout Mode is one of Crative’s trademark sound modes that focuses on the detection of sounds through enhanced audio cues, highlighting each and every in-game detail that could make or break the game. Whether it's the sound of your enemies' gun reloading or a slight ruffle in the grass, Scout Mode has the ability to pinpoint the sounds right in your ears. Detect your enemies' slightest movement before even seeing them on screen!

*Please note that SXFI BATTLE Mode is a headphone technology and is only available in headphone mode. Scout mode is available in both modes but is optimized for headphone use.
