That's awesome, getting praised on CNET

With enough *cough* luck, they may even get praised here too

Used to own Pebble Pro, just changed to the new XF1 a few days ago.

I must say that the quality is very good. XF1 is fantastic given the size and price. I am not an audiophile so this speakers sound great to me.

Was contemplating this new model, but the launch was underwhelming overall. Did not see any reviews from SG.
Realised it is more popular in Japan instead.

Thanks for your feedback I have more confidence now

Yeah man. There was no marketing outside of Japan. I only very recently learned about this new speakers while randomly doing a search on Google. Creative just officially released the product video for XF1 on their YouTube yesterday.

Anyways, great speakers. I got the white one and it looks amazing.

Looks similar to some of Edifier's active desktop speakers... they now have a rival... :s12:

Is the Pebble V3 available at the show? Is it worth the jump to Pebble Pro?

Last time cambridge soundworks are under creative. Remember 250D??????
I think originally Cambridge sound work is not under creative... But later kana bought over

I remember their speakers bass sibei tokgong

"Ownership BackgroundAcquisition: Creative Technology acquired the US-based speaker company Cambridge SoundWorks in late 1997 for approximately $38 million"
