Gapless Playback

Precise gapless playback is important to your listening experience. With precise gapless playback, the playback timing is guaranteed to be identical to the source. There are no gaps or overlaps (crossfading) between successive tracks. The gap will be very noticeable in " continuous " music such as live concert recordings, some classical music, etc.

Adaptive EQ

Breakthrough listening experience requires both high-res audio content and a high-quality playback device . When adaptive EQ is enabled, the music genre information and other tags included in the audio content are used to adjust the frequency in real time by bringing in rich audio to capture every music detail or make human voices clearer in the podcast.

Auto calibration of audio delay

The connected receiver or speaker may have different audio path latency due to different hardware, software and DSP processing. To maintain the synchronization of each system, it's desirable to measure the audio path delay automatically. By leveraging the on-device microphone and proprietary algorithm, the entire audio path latency is measured automatically when it's connected with the receiver or speaker. The latency value will be used to maintain the perfect audio synchronization in wireless multi-room or multi-channel playback.
