Major SBX Pro Studio Functions

• SBX Pro Studio Surround provides immersion control of sounds not just around you, but also above and below for a full 3D audio experience. Hear the natural sense of audio depth, spaciousness and stunning 3D surround effects from your audio content. Enjoy an unbelievably true-to-life audio experience, whether it's over stereo speakers or headphones. Alternatively, you can switch to the Stereo option which will provide a more basic surround experience, whereby the front L/R speaker channels' stereo audio content are duplicated to all the surround speakers. Note that the Stereo option is only available in 5.1 speaker configuration

• SBX Pro Studio Bass fills in the low frequency tones and gives the extra impact for a better entertainment experience. It dramatically improves the sound experience without a subwoofer
• SBX Pro Studio Smart Volume addresses the problem of abrupt volume level changes during playback and between songs by automatically and continuously measuring volume, and intelligently applying gain and attenuation to compensate for those changes
