Phase Matching Bass

■Phase Matching Bass

`Off

`On

From the warm low notes produced by a cello to the deep frequencies of electronic music, a good audio system should be able to deliver plenty of bass resonance.

While traditional enhancement systems effectively boost low-frequency sound, they are often prone to the effects of phase shifting, which can overwhelm mid-range frequencies and muddy the sound. Our Phase-Matching Bass Boost technology effectively preserves mid-range clarity-allowing vocals and strings to shine-while maintaining a smooth, powerful bass response at all volume levels.

Note

•The Phase Matching Bass is disabled when the Direct, Pure Audio, or THX listening mode is selected.

•If the “Subwoofer” setting is set to “No”, this setting is fixed to “Off”.
