Technology to extrapolate and supplement with proprietary algorithm, the high-frequency range that is cut off when encoding at low bit rate (less than 128Kbps, Sampling frequency is 44.1kHz).

Supplementing is optimized by a compression format (AAC, MP3 or WMA) and processed according to bit rate.

The effect is negligible with music that is encoded at high bit rate or variable bit rate or music that has a minimal high frequency range.
