Det är inte bara ASUS som satsar hårt på ljudkortsmarknaden numera, även om Creative själva inte är allt för högljudda om sina egna ljudkort har deras partner Auzentech fortsatt med sin utveckling av X-Fi baserade kort. Nu har man lanserat en ny modell som bär namnet HomeTheater HD och bara detta lär locka intresset från många kunder. Några av de funktioner man kan skryta med är stöd för Dolby TrueHD och DTS-HD Master Audio samt HDMI-utgång och PCI Express gränssnittet. Man har även fullt stöd för EAX 5.0 genom X-Fi kretsen som även öppnar upp för en trevlig spelupplevelse. Kortet har dock försenats något och väntas dyka upp i butiker under januari 2009.
