Highlights
PureDigital
Advanced PureDigital sound processing technology
offers vastly superior sound performance compared
to the conventional analogue audio processing
technology that is found in docking players that use
the analogue audio output from an iPhone/iPod. By
collecting the iPhone's/iPod's digital audio output and
employing digital processing at each stage of the
circuit, a much higher Signal-to-Noise ratio is
produced. The result is unsurpassed sound clarity
that is in perfect balance.
Optimal acoustic volume
Smart sound design brings you the best bass
reproduction possible. The acoustic volume
allocated to each midrange driver perfectly matches
its acoustic requirements. Low tones come out deep
and tight – delivering strong and rich bass.
Curved back for better sound
The clean lines and sensuality of the curved back
cover not only looks fabulous – it also creates a
more effective structure for acoustics. Carefully
designed, the curve increases the stiffness of the
speaker cabinet, dramatically reducing internal
resonance and resulting in more precise and natural
sound reproduction. You get to enjoy both lovely
looking speakers and sensational sound.
Proximity sensor
Most top-grade audiophile appliances allow the
display to be turned off – for absolute enjoyment of
music, and for power to be focused on sound
reproduction. With the proximity sensor feature,
you can enjoy that too. Walk away and the
illuminated functional keys automatically dim. When
your hand draws near, the functional keys light up so
you can control your music without fuss.
