- Stereo X2
- Stereo
- Quad
Stereo, is just using the front two speakers. Stereo X2 is just the standard 2 channels on all four speakers. Quad is the standard 4.1 configuration, but tones down the bass. Pro Logic & Dolby Digital are for movies and music, and both utilize 4 channels. Dolby Digital from what I can tell seems like a toned down Pro Logic, bass wise. To be honest, this system puts out oodles of punchy, clean, distortion free bass as it is. Anyway, I used my trusty Sound Blaster Live! 24-Bit sound card, and played my usual music, which tends to be a mix of 70’s rock, 80’s, and other misc stuff. The highs were crisp, the midranges vibrated my ribcage (freaky feeling), and the lows would easily make a constipated person run for the bathroom.Â
