6.6FlexBass

FlexBass, an advanced bass management and enhancement mechanism, allows you to select each satellite speaker’s type for optimal sound performance from the speakers. (Small: common speaker that cannot produce low frequencies; Large: wide-band speakers that can produce low frequencies well). It comes with an adjustable crossover frequency for the boundary of the bass signals. FlexBass will filter out the bass signals from small speaker channels and redirect them all to the subwoofer or Large speakers.

2Small / Large speaker Select the speaker type that you connected. If your speaker

optiontype cannot perform low-frequency signals (bass), select

 

 

 

 

“Small” speaker type and Xonar DGX will filter out the bass

 

 

 

 

signals and send them to the subwoofer channel. If those

 

 

 

 

speakers are full-range, you can select the “Large” speaker

 

 

 

 

type.

 

 

 

 

Note: Usually, low-cost PC’s 2-channel speakers are

 

 

 

 

small-type speakers. Refer to the speaker’s specification.

 

 

 

 

If you have any questions, consult your speaker vendor.

 

 

 

 

However, common 2.1 speakers with a subwoofer should

 

 

 

 

be categorized as Large speakers because the subwoofer

 

 

 

 

can redirect the bass signals inside the two channels to the

 

 

 

 

subwoofer speaker automatically.
