Boosting the bass sound

— D.bass

You can enjoy a clear and powerful bass
sound. The D-bass function boosts the low
frequency signal with a sharper curve than
conventional bass boost.
You can hear the bass line more clearly even
while the vocal volume remains the same. You
can emphasize and adjust the bass sound
easily with the D-bass control.
