Dun pair it with X-fi if u demand natural sound,onboard sound card will serve u well

Recomend u pick a sound card with warm sound.
Audiotrack prodigy HD2 is a good try.
X-fi too bright for this speaker even it improve the soundstage and produce stronger bass,but trust me,u wont want to sit down and listen to it more than 1 hour

. Except for Movie and Gaming.
Just my opinion

thanks, i already bought it, and paired with xtreme music, now still fine tune the EQ. i dun really flat EQ kaki, that is definitely not my taste, so the brightness you mentioned, i not sure what media player you using to listen music, but i found that it's only happen in FB2K, if using windows media player, it wun be that bright. this happen to my previous asus D2 (paired with S2000) also. but FB2K can play some albums very "chun",but some, too bright and dry, WMP can perform all album averagely.
how about interconnect and speaker cable? i changed the speaker cable to low noise cable, i not able to change the interconnect, since this s330 also act as front channel for my custom 4.1 for movie purpose, so if i use those canare mini phone jack, then it will become impossible to plug the rear channel jack into the rear channel line out, the canare mini phone jack body (the part where we solder the cable to the jack) too fat.
