Advanced Technologies in the UltraThin Home Theater Soundbar and Wireless Subwoofer
Wider Sound Stage: Vector Firing (VF) Side Drivers
The Vector Firing Side Drivers(4) enhance both stereo and FX surround modes. The
sweet spot for listening is wider and the surround effects are more dramatic as a result
of the VF side driver design and Fractal Expansion processing.
High Efficiency Amplifier Technology: ClassHD
The UltraThin Soundbar employs a new class of patented audio amplifier called
ClassHD
TM
. The ClassHD
TM
amplifier is more efficient at normal listening levels than
conventional amplifiers and even more efficient than Class D digital amplifiers. This
new technology allows for a very compact audio system design with the performance
of a much larger audio system. Another advantage to the ClassHD
TM
amplifier is that
there is no need for bulky external power adapters. The Soundbar and Wireless
Subwoofer have independent AC power cords so that the Subwoofer can be placed
anywhere in the listening room.
State-of-the-Art Processing: Fractal Expansion (FX)
Experience a convincing surround sound presentation from the10-speaker Soundbar
and Subwoofer. Fractal Expansion is an advanced audio processing technology that
converts the 2 channel stereo into a wide sound stage with virtual center and surround
images that will amaze and thrill you. This advanced processing preserves the tonal
accuracy of the original sound source to create rich sound. You can enjoy your favorite
music using Fractal Expansion or select the high fidelity stereo mode.
Dramatic Low Frequency Response: High BL* Wireless Subwoofer
The Wireless Subwoofer delivers deep, strong, and dynamic bass all the way down to
35 Hz. The ClassHD
TM
amplifier in the Subwoofer has the capability to outperform
conventional amplifiers of its rating. The extra performance of the amplifier is matched
to the very strong High BL woofer to give movie special effects dynamic impact. The
independent Subwoofer level control allows you to adjust only the level of deep low
frequencies without changing the crossover frequencies to preserve the tonal accuracy
of the entire Soundbar and Subwoofer system.
* BL is determined by the flux density (B) in the magnetic gap and the length (L) of voice
coil wire in the gap. A higher BL will generally mean a speaker will have a higher
relative sensitivity (efficiency).
