The biggest audio festival of the year happens in Denver, at the Rocky Mountain Audio Fest. This time, ASUS and Creative Labs are teaming up and will be demoing the ZenFone 2 and how it, combined with some of Creative Labs’ solutions, can be an exciting audio pair for people with a discerning taste.
To kick off this collab, and HUGE thanks to Creative Labs, we’re giving away one (1) ZenFone 2 4GB RAM, 64GB Storage model AND one (1) Creative Labs Soundblaster E5 audio DAC! You can also check out our article on how the ZenFone 2 can be an audiophile’s dream with the Creative Labs Sound Blaster E5 audio DAC.
EDIT: Congratulations to DENNY W. on winning!
That’s sounds like s great combo, that model of the ZF2 was my all time favorite phone… wish I did not lose mine
Sounds amazing.
This would go great with my Audio techinca ATH-M50x. I thoroughly enjoy Asus products and the community behind them makes them that much more amazing.
My apologies for the duplicate comment. Hotel wifi isn’t the best
Haha…that’s okay! Best of luck!
This looks phenomenal. I enjoy Asus products throughly and the community behind them is excellent
I would love one of these.
That looks amazing!
I had no idea USB OTG supported such devices as DACs, that’s pretty awesome!
I’d love this
I love Asus products! Every single one I have used so far has been flawless in my eyes, and I’d love to try out an Asus phone, especially their top of the line device! I consider myself to be an audiophile anyway, and the creative labs DAC would be a dream to own with a phone, nevermind a phone like this!
I would enjoy one, many thanks for doing this giveaway!
Ooh, another giveaway! You guys are awesome.
Thanks for doing this guys! Looking forward to seeing who wins
Thanks for this!
Looks awesome.
Thanks for the giveaway guys!
Wow, this looks like a great way to get started in sound design. Hope I win.
Thanks for this, lets see who will win.
Thanks for another competition!
Pick me!
It would be nice to win this!
Would be great to have a DAC from Creative Labs. I loved their sound cards back in the day.
Whaaaaaa, didn’t expect this kind of giveaway!
Amazing
I haven’t played with the audio on my new zenfone 2 at all, so this sounds awesome.
Great phone.
wow all these giveaways! Apparently ZF2 has a pretty good DAC so the Soundblaster E5 would just be icing on the cake 🙂
This giveaway and all the community support from ASUS “sounds” awesome.
See what I did there? 😀
I did, I did!
love it!
Two great devices from two great companies, I’m in!
These would go great with my Sony MDRs! Awesome giveaway as always!
I have the 2 gig version and I love it. Would love to get my hands on a 4 gig ram model.
Awesome!
Amazing giveaway!The sound blaster has great versatility and it’s not too bulky :p
Thanks for the giveaways!
This definitely seems like a great combo! Pair this up with some mobile DJ software and you could build your own portable DJ setup! Also thank you so much for the giveaway.
I would love to win this giveaway because it would be amazing to have am audio DAC and even if I won a Zenfone (already have one) I would give it to my sister.
Wow. Cool stuff
This is amazing! A great combination
Love crisp clear audio so this DAC would be amazing to have.
Been needing this for a long while! Stock audio isn’t very good tbh
dope combo would love to have it
wow another giveaway, thanks a lot
Nice pair of gadgets for a giveaway! I’m staring at google’s “I’m feeling lucky”. LOL! 😀
Not gonna lie, this would be nice.
I love music and would love to give this combo a try! The Zenfone 2 does have the perfect storage combo for it.
Because FLAC alone isn’t enough. Good software has to be complemented with great hardware.
I love gadgets. Always wanted to try this soundblaster.
I wont win.
Khanger bringing the goods
I’m in desperate need of a new phone, but I’m 17, not 18. Is there any chance I can still enter this contest?
Sorry, but unfortunately we have the age restriction. We totally appreciate your honesty though!
I would love an x86 in mah phone!
I’ve always wanted to have an awesome audio experience!
i need this!
Awesome!
Awesome giveaway!
Sounds good to me!!!
Love my Z2. Would give this one to my wife.
This would be an amazing combo to show off the true power and features of the ZenFone2. Asus is the way to go, say no to Samsung and Apple.
My Zenfone has been awesome! I’ve been think of upgrading my SO’s phone as an x-mas gift, either of these would rock.
Thanks for the giveaway guys!
Looks like an awesome combination, Thanks for arranging this 🙂
Thanks for the giveaway!
Great giveaway guys! I want that DAC so much!
I like to listen to music in my spare time and Asus sounds like a great option with expandable storage.
With my high-frequency hearing loss from 6 years on a US Army tank I need all the help I can get trying to hear music as it was meant to be heard!
This would be right up my alley because I’m a true lover of all kinds of music, music is good part of my life.
Music is my escape and I am currently in the market for a new phone…plus it would match my pc parts 🙂
Great giveaway! Thanks!
I need either of these to enhance my audio listening experience. It would go well with my Sony MDR-7506 headphones to help me hear music like it was meant to be heard.
Thanks for doing this!
That DAC sounds neat
Sounds good!
Get it?
Been looking at the ZenPhone for some time now. This giveaway will be awesome.
Would love this to compliment my flac audio files!
I’d love to own an Asus phone
Exciting!
WOW AMAZING, im gonna buy some good headphones if i win this 😀 this is sooo amazing YEAH
Should be fun!
I could use those.
Now this, SOUNDS awesome!
I love quality sound whether it is in gaming or listening to music. Hearing the subtle nuances in music is as important to enjoying music as hearing somebody trying to walk up behind you in game.
I love Asus products. I have a K53E laptop that’s very reliable, and have been wanting a Zenfone 2 for quite a while. Now this combo would be a great thing for me as I have no tablet nor decent cell phone right now. If I had my choice I’d REALLY want a Zenfone 2 Deluxe Special Edition that came out in Brazil with 256gb of storage And the Zenfone Max’s 5000 mah battery. But this giveaway is so sweet I’d love to get these. Thanks so much for the chance.
Thanks for your support! I know that Deluxe SE is really nice…haha..best of luck on the contest!
That looks like it would be awesome to have, I love listening to music on my phone.
I need this!!!
I’ve never used a device like this. I love music but having something like this to pair with my Zenfone 2 could REALLY boost my enthusiasm for taking my music on the go.
Would be a nice replacement for my chunky player
I listen music on big speakers with amplifier for rest of my life. Source was vinyl, when CD, when… again vinyl. We inventing mp3 and small devices what can play compressed music, but what about quality? Maybe this combo – ZenFone and E5 audio DAC – can return positive answer on my question? 🙂
I’m an audiophile because I grew up in it, my dad was obsessed with music, owning thousands of CDs, spending every weekend in the used record shop, he booked and promoted for a local music hall. Now I would love to carry on his love for music, but lack the equipment to really do so.
It’s an amazing story to hear…I myself am not an audiophile, but we definitely have people at ASUS who are that crave that high-quality sound. Best of luck on the contest!
great products
Because nothing beats a clear sound.
I would like to win as I don’t have these gadgets.
I currently enjoy my music through an old but trusted Klipsch x10 with comply foam tips. This bundle would be a much appreciated upgrade to my setup! : ) Thanks!
Honestly didn’t even realize that Creative Labs was still around, but I use to swear by their headphones and few of their mp3 players in the past./
Like to hear all the instruments and vocals like they where ment to be
I love having upgraded sound available to my tunes. My music varies from 60/70/80’s Rock, Classic Country and new country. Also love the Classicals, so the better the sound the more I’ll enjoy it.
I would love to have this as my new phone.
Epic giveaway! Fingers crossed RNG Gods!
Because I love listening to music anytime and anywhere. I need this package to release stress at work and be entertainment during the holidays.
Being a 100%VA disabled Vet I tend to have plenty of time. I am a spinal cord injury survivor. I had read an article recently about the Creative Labs headphone amp and the FLAC player and was blown away. The majority of my time is listening to music off my phone. Not only would a rig like this be a God send…. but it would be pretty slick too! 🙂
I’m sorry to hear about your injury! That must have been really tough to overcome, and I congratulate you on that. I wish you the best on the contest!
That’s a cool and useful set of devices.
That’s a nice set of devices for an audio enthusiast.
Damn that looks amazing
Since loosing all the hearing in my right ear, after having a tumor removed back in March 2015, I have been constantly looking for ways to improve my listening experience. I would love an opportunity to see how well these two products could help me. I so miss being able to listen to my music and videos!!
I’m sorry to hear that you had to go through that experience. Best of luck on the contest, and I hope we can provide that great audio experience for you!
Why I’m an audiophile? Because I love music! I mean real music that deserve to be listening on quality equipment. And I’m so crazy that I will carry with myself external DAC if it will improve the quality of music) Do not doubt that the ZenFone 2 can output amazing sound (FLAC only).
Superb news! I love this!
Interested in the phone, even without the contest
It sound and will sound amazing ! What a great combination for audiophiles and tech. lovers. 🙂
Thanks for the giveaway and good luck to everyone !
All hail khagnar!
I would actually set up a station at our performances where fans could listen to high quality clips of our music while buying cds, merch, etc.
That sounds like an awesome idea! Do you have a link to your band’s site?
As someone who loves listening to music, but can’t afford to buy a nice DAC this would be awesome to win. Pairing it with a ZenFone 2 (which I’ve also been interested in) would be even better.
nice phone
Perfect music on the go? Nice =)
Good luck everyone! I love ASUS!
Super cool. would love to have these. I need a new phone badly.
I wonder just how much better the Creative Labs Soundblaster E5 audio DAC can make my Monster Carbon MVP headset sound. They already sound great. Mostly, I need that Android device. I have a Windows Phone. Love the hardware, hate the marketplace.
I need a phone, and I could really use this in my lab at work.
My zune and old fiio heaphone amp are a bit out of date, my phone is also a brick, would love these two.
I also use Asus Motherboards!
looks amazing
Goodluck Everyone!
This phone looks simply amazing, the specs and the design as well. I also own other Asus products, graphics cards, monitor and laptops as well.
I really need a new phone D: My phone is shitting the bed, lasted me a couple long years though
Amazing phone both spec wise and the design. I also own other Asus products such as graphic cards, monitors and laptops.
Seems pretty awesome, to me the audio from the phone’s headphone jack has always sounded good enough, I would love to get one to see and compare the difference.
Creative Labs is amazing and having a DAC would be awsome for the zenfone2!
thanks for the contest
thanks for the contest… Good luck to everyone
Awesome phone!
Wow. I want this. Well, anybody want this!
Sounds amazing. Ba-Dum-Tiss
Speaking seriously now, I’ve taking an interest on following up that tutorial for quite some time but I wasn’t sure since I only have one Zenfone 2 available.
That’s a great opportunity to try it out!
I just sent my entry comment and also just reading other comments here I realize how much I wanted the Zenfone 2 and Creative Labs Soundblaster E5 audio DAC giveaway because my entry sounds too passionate/serious! hahaha dang,.. now I”m turning red.
WIN
Awesome! Thanks for doing the giveaway.
GRATS DANNY!!
Awesome!
thanks for the information, very useful for me
