how bout you not be a douche and just answer the question. prolly every ****ing question possible has been asked in this forum already, so instead of posting, we could all just do searches. but im sorry, i really dont feel like looking through 200 threads on epicenters trying to piece together bits of information when i dont even know what im looking for.

You may ask yourself, “Why would I need to restore bass?” The truth is that during the recording process, low frequency information can be “mixed” down or filtered out. It’s not that recording engineers are out to get you; in fact they are looking out for your best interests and are concerned that many speaker systems cannot handle “truly” low bass information. The patented circuit inside The Epicenter is designed to reproduce the low frequency information by looking at the upper frequency ranges and detecting musical harmonics. These harmonics then allow The Epicenter to drop down a few octaves and reproduce the “missing” bass notes. The bottom line is that The Epicenter technology gives you deep, body shuddering, heart stopping bass.

An Epic-160 is the same device except for it has a built in dB meter.. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

I had one and while it was fun to play with, I found it did weird things to my music.. It's great for older music, but for newer stuff, I always had to turn it off.. Your results may vary, but if you're at all into classic rock, then it's worth it just for that if you want something to play around with..

Is the dB meter any good ?

wow, that pretty interesting. thanx for the info. i know i got some songs that are lacking in bass. but does it really sound good? i mean, it sounds like its just a computer that makes up bass notes....doesnt seem like things would work out too well, lol. and do you have to like turn it up/down with every song or can it detect the bass deficiencies? and it sound skinda like it works like a LOC...
