Overview
- Creative launched the XF1 on Thursday, making the compact 2.0 speaker system available in Japan, the U.S., the U.K., and Europe at $179.99 / €159.99 through creative.com and authorized retailers.
- The XF1 delivers 72W RMS total power and a measured frequency range of about 55Hz to 40kHz from a fully active two-way design that uses DSP control and dedicated amplification for each driver to cut distortion.
- The speakers carry dual Hi‑Res Audio certification and support Hi‑Res Audio Wireless via Bluetooth 6.0 with LDAC, plus high-resolution USB‑C playback up to 24‑bit/96kHz for wired sources.
- Creative’s Nexus app provides a 10‑band parametric EQ and more than 120 presets for quick tuning, and the hardware includes a 3.5mm line‑in plus a dedicated subwoofer output with automatic mode switching for 2.1 expansion.
- The XF1 leverages Creative’s long audio heritage to offer an affordable, desktop-focused upgrade path for users who want clearer detail and more flexible connectivity without a large footprint.
