StereoXL better explained and experiences (post 7 and beyond) https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?66609-Just-unpack-my-new-Boom-and-first-issue!&highlight=enhancer
StereoXL explained (from SB Boom white paper) StereoXL Technology StereoXL is a proprietary stereo expansion technology developed by Logitech audio engineers. It provides a significantly enhanced stereo sound field, expanding the sound stage beyond the physical extents of the speakers themselves. I have always been wary of this type of processing for fear that it would wreck the audio quality in order to achieve the effect of stereo widening. However, once the engineers from the Logitech Audio business unit helped implement StereoXL in the Squeezebox Boom, the results were very surprising. The audio quality wasnt diminished at all, but the sound seems to come from everywhere. That said it can be overdone, and the quality depends on the track used and the encoding used. In order to allow for varying user preferences, and track encodings there are 3 settings for StereoXL. The best one is typically in the middle (medium). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ toby10's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12553 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=109433
