Tri-Amplified Design: Three Amps are Better Than One
PASSIVE DESIGN TRI-AMPLIFIED DESIGN
Oneamplier drving high, low and mid frequencies
Threeampliers, one dedicated to high frequency,
one to mids and another to low frequency for
improved frequency distribution
Unlike most conventional soundbars that utilize a single amplier to reproduce the entire audio
spectrum, Sound BlasterX Katana employs three high-performance ampliers – one dedicated to
driving lows, one for mids, and another solely for high frequencies.
ThisallowstheSoundBlasterXKatanatoproducestartlinglyclear,precise,andwell-balancedaudio.
Without any compromise on clarity, details and bass, the Sound BlasterX Katana is able to deliver
massiveroom-llingaudiothatisnonsweet-spotdependant–fullyimmersingusersintheactionofa
game or movie, from the whizz of bullets to the rumble of explosions, and even the softest dialog.
