CNET reviews Creative’s Xmod device, which “enhances compressed audio by effectively converting it to 24-bit audio” using their patented “X-Fi Xtreme Fidelity” technology. Here’s the verdict:

Overall, I’m impressed with the Xmod, and at $79, it’s worth checking out–even with all the PR marketing hoopla surrounding this technology. I don’t like that it limits your “Crystalized” audio to the nearest power outlet or computer, but I think Creative’s X-Fi technology will make it into portable devices soon
