Advanced DSP Sound Quality Enhancement Effects
The most important aspect of any audio program is how well it sounds. While
sound quality can be extremely subjective, the general consensus from both
reviewers and users alike is that the sound quality of DFX is exceptional.

Harmonic Fidelity Restoration
Adding Fidelity to your audio eliminates the "muffled" sound that is an
artifact of the data compression algorithms used in Internet audio formats. DFX compensates
for this loss of high frequency fidelity by carefully regenerating the missing high frequency
harmonics in the audio. This harmonic restoration is performed using patent-pending technology
that carefully synthesizes high frequency harmonics to replace the harmonics lost during the
encoding process.
Ambience, Stereo Imaging
Adding Ambience to your audio compensates for the lost or diminished stereo
depth that is the result of closely located speakers, poor listening environments, and sonic
losses due to data compression of Internet audio formats. DFX compensates for the reduced
stereo imaging and depth of PC audio by carefully regenerating the ambience and stereo depth.
This same ambience processing has been used by Grammy winning engineers of artists such as
Alanis Morissette and Ella Fitzgerald.
3D Surround Sound
Using the 3D Surround Sound component adds amazing depth and body to your
audio, compensating for monitoring limitations and sonic losses due to data compression. With
3D Surround processing the sounds will surround you, virtually putting you inside the music!
3D Surround enhances the sound played on conventional 2-speaker systems and makes even small
PC speaker systems sound larger and richer. It is also fully compatible with Surround Sound
playback systems.
HyperBass
Using the HyperBass component adds deep, rich bass sound to your audio by
compensating for the bass limitations of almost all PC-based audio systems and data-compressed
audio formats. DFX does this by carefully regenerating the low frequency harmonics, thus
increasing the perceived bass, but without exceeding the speakers physical limits, adding or
changing speakers or amplifiers, and without increased power consumption. HyperBass greatly
improves the bass performance of any sound system.
Dynamic Gain Boosting
Adding Dynamic Boost increases the perceived loudness of your audio while
minimizing distortion levels, particularly when using Internet audio systems. By adding
Dynamic Gain Boosting, your playback system will sound twice as loud without losing any punch
on loud passages.
Typical PC-based multimedia playback systems and even home stereo playback systems suffer from
limited dynamic range and headroom. Dynamic Boost compensates for this limited headroom by
carefully processing the audio to increase the perceived loudness of the audio without
altering the perceived dynamic range.

Speakers and Headphones Modes
The listening environment section allows you to quickly get optimized sound for your
listening environment. Speaker mode optimizes your listening experience through
speaker systems. Headphone mode optimizes your listening experience through headphones.
When in Headphone mode the audio is processed in such a way that the music sounds as if it
is originating from a source in front of you rather than coming straight at your ears.
This creates a much more pleasant and natural sound. It also reduces listener fatigue
by eliminating the "in your head effect" of regular headphones.
