They enhance the lower bass & upper frequencies to give you a fuller sound. This is my opinion is a false sounding reproduction of the intended SQ from the artists. I rather not have any of these features turned on in any of my systems.

posted_image Thanks Jeff,i was hoping you see this post,so in another words this "BBE" is an artificial enhancer that changes the way the music was recorded....ok.

Take care

bbe's are made for PA type usage. I use one in my guitar rack to process my sounds. the maximizer just makes intruments sound more full and bright. That's about all they are good for. I wouldnt use one to process sound in a car. It would probably sound like crap. i've never heard of one being used in car audio applications though.

posted_image Thank you,i know Alpine for example had (maybe still do....) an EQ with BBE build in,also BBE had a 1/2 DIN for use in car aplications,there was one on ebay for like $ 100 and i thought it was kinda cheap (brand new unit,so the person claimed....) but when in stores the thing went for like $ 150 us !
