The Creative GigaWorks S750 
and S700 have moderately high 
input sensitivity, so they may 
amplify the hum and hiss inherent 
in some audio program sources. 
Any background noise you hear is 
not due to a fault in the speaker 
system. You can minimize 
background noise as follows:
Use the remote control as your 
master volume control. 
If your speaker system is 
connected to a computer, adjust the 
settings of your computer’s sound 
control software. (If you are using 
Creative Sound Blaster software, 
this would be the Surround Mixer 
application). Turn off any input 
controls that you do not need, such 
as Microphone, and set the 
remaining input controls to about 
70% of their maximum volume.
Adjust the master output volume of 
your sound control software, such 
that your speaker system reaches a 
comfortably loud volume in its 
default volume settings.

The Audio Control Pod’s Auxiliary 
input connector allows you to mix 
an audio program source (Auxiliary 
Analog Input) with the main 7.1-
channel program source. 
In addition, the M-PORT input 
lets you hear audio directly from an 
M-PORT compatible Creative 
portable digital audio player, with-
out routing through a computer.
The main 7.1 channel output is 
always audible; if both the Auxiliary 
and M-PORT inputs are used, the 
Auxiliary input will be heard instead 
of the M-PORT input.
Table 3 lists what sounds you will 
hear when using multiple inputs in 
different ways. 
Note: In certain situations, you may 
require additional cables that are 
available separately.
