Creative Technology announces the launch of Creative XF1, a new Hi-Res desktop speaker designed to bring extreme fidelity audio into homes and personal workspaces. Built for enthusiasts who care about both sound quality and aesthetics, Creative XF1 combines 72W RMS power output, dual Hi-Res Audio certification, next-gen connectivity and personalised control with the Creative Nexus app to elevate every listening experience. Whether it’s your favourite song or a late-night movie, Creative XF1 creates more immersive and connected experiences through richer depth and clarity.
Powerful, clear sound at any volume
With a power output of 72W RMS and a frequency range of 55Hz to 40kHz, Creative XF1 brings out details in music, movies, games that many compact 2.0 speakers in this price range do not reproduce – the slight rasp in a voice, the rumbling bass under a game soundtrack, and the delicate notes of a piano piece.
Creative XF1 is designed for clear, controlled sound at the desk at any volume. It uses a fully active 2-way design with DSP control and dedicated amplification for each driver to reduce distortion and keep the sound balanced as the level changes. Bespoke FEA-optimized 3-inch woofers then add the extra punch and close-range clarity that smaller desktop speakers often lack.
Advanced wireless and wired connectivity
Creative XF1 carries dual Hi-Res Audio certification, supporting playback up to 40kHz over USB audio and analog-line in, as well as Hi-Res Audio Wireless over LDAC with Bluetooth® 6.0. Users can stream in high quality over Bluetooth® 6.0, or connect via USB-C for up to 24-bit / 96kHz playback from compatible devices. A 3.5mm line-in and dedicated subwoofer output with automatic mode switching create a straightforward upgrade path for users who want to start with a simple plug-and-play setup and expand into a more powerful 2.1 system over time.
Compact design and personalised sound with Creative Nexus
With its compact and minimalist design, Creative XF1 sits neatly beside monitors and laptops without dominating the workspace. It comes in black or white colour. The detachable cork stand helps angle the speakers toward the listener while adding a warm, understated accent that suits both creative studios and everyday home setups.
Personalise Your Sound
For users who want a personalised experience, the Creative Nexus app offers a 10-band parametric EQ and preset management, making it easy to switch between a more neutral curve for mixing and mastering, a richer profile for movies, or a punchier sound for games and day-to-day use at the desk.
The Creative Nexus App also has 120+ EQ presets, crafted in-house by our audio specialists. These EQ presents cover over 20 types of music and close to 100 games, making custom sound immediately available and equally accessible straight out of the box.
Pricing
Creative XF1 is priced at US$199, coming soon at Creative UK.
