Audio

Powerful and Punchy

Experience superior audio quality with the Creative Stage SE! Decked out with powerful full-range racetrack drivers and oversized radiators, this under-monitor soundbar is able to reproduce clearer and punchier audio reproduction, even without a subwoofer. With a peak power of 48W, this nifty soundbar is capable of creating sound that is of much higher quality than regular Bluetooth soundbars. Talk about an upgrade!

Powered By SoundBlaster

The Creative Stage SE is armed with Sound Blaster's audio technologies—Clear Dialog and Surround, providing you with improved vocal intelligibility and wide surround experience in an instant. Enjoy a cinema-like experience at the comfort of your own home, and focus on your screen without having to depend on subtitles.

Surround

Complete your immersive movie experience with Surround technology, powered by Sound Blaster to deliver a wider soundstage to your media! It is capable of identifying and enhancing the spatial information of incoming audio via Sound Blaster's audio filters, thereby optimizing the listening experience for both two-channel and multi-channel source content. The result is expanded soundstage and spatialized audio from any type of audio source, including Netflix, HBO, and Amazon Prime Video, providing you with a more realistic and comfortable listening experience akin to cinemas.

Clear Dialog

It's great when your movie or game comes with rich and immersive audio, but it's a total downer if the dialog gets drowned out amongst the explosive sound effects and music. Clear Dialog extracts the vocals and spoken dialog through an algorithm, then intelligently enhances and amplifies them, allowing you to hear each syllable clearly, and without compromising on the other ambient effects.

Adjust to Your Liking

Switch between warmer and brighter audio reproduction with Creative's new feature, Tone Adjustment. Now you can tune and adjust tone neutrality on the Creative Stage SE with a press of a button!

Warmer Sounds:

Tilts towards bass frequencies, with the bass and vocals becoming more prominent. Higher frequencies are quieter and subdued, leaving you with a warm and soothing audio.

Bright Sounds:

This tone reproduces better high-pitched sounds, leaving you with crisp and clear audio.
