Diamond Launching the Xtreme Sound 7.1 Audio Adapter Dylan Duarte April 4, 2014 Press Release Way back at CES 2014 (I know it was just in January) Diamond showed off their new Xtreme Sound 24bit 7.1 Channel Digital Audio Adapter, mercilessly abbreviated to XS71HDU. Heading into Q2 2014, theyre finally gearing up to launch the product with a target release window of late May. As the name suggests, Diamonds latest supports true 7.1 HD audio output.

It requires a Core 2 Duo or AMD equivalent processor at 2.2GHz or faster, 10MB HDD space, 1GB of RAM, and an open USB drive and CD-ROM drive for the installation software.
