Over the past year many people have been forced to work remotely and from home. Since then we’ve become very familiar with Zoom, Skype, Microsoft Teams and any other video chat app that your employer might use. While your video quality doesn’t always have to be the best your audio quality definitely does. I’m sure you’ve experienced someone using the built-in microphone on their laptop and how annoying it is, you definitely don’t want to be that person. Well Creative has a very affordable solution to that problem with their $30 Sound Blaster Play! 4. Let’s see what it is all about!
Special thanks to Creative for providing us with the Sound Blaster Play! 4 USB DAC to review.

Packaging
The Sound Blaster Play! 4 comes in a pretty simple retail box. On the front we have a picture of the unit and some information. Flipping over to the back there is more information.
Getting everything out of the box we have the Sound Blaster Play 4! itself, a USB-C to USB-A adapter, a quick start guide, and warranty guide.
