D2Audio® SoundSuite™
WideSound™ | DeepBass™ | AudioAlign™ | DigitalEQ™
D2Audio SoundSuite is advanced audio signal processing firmware that runs on D2Audio Digital Audio Engine™ IC platforms and subassemblies that drive high-quality sound in products such as digital televisions, premium digital audio docking stations and stereo products.
SoundSuite's collection of advanced audio processing features deliver the highest possible sound quality in either 2-channel or multi-channel systems using propritery psycho-acoustic enhancements dramatically impact the consumer's listening experience.
- D2Audio SoundSuite WideSound™ - An advanced two-channel image field enhancement designed to widen the sound stage
- D2Audio SoundSuite DeepBass™ - A sophisticated bass enhancement using psycho-acoustics and dynamic filtering
- D2Audio SoundSuite AudioAlign™ - Sound positioning for alignment with the video display
- D2Audio SoundSuite DigitalEQ™ - System level speaker correction and optimizations with preset content/source voicing
In addition to AVR-class sound quality, the audio processing features of Intersil's SoundSuite give manufacturers the ability to deliver a scalable range of end-products with significant differentiation. Additionally, manufacturers can eliminate additional component costs by taking advantage of the DSP processing horsepower embedded into every D2Audio Digital Audio Engine IC platform.

Typical Listening Experience |
| A typical listening experience is a limited sensory event featuring speakers that are not aligned with the listeners' ears, a sound trajectory that is narrow, and linear and bass reproduction that is minimal and insufficient. |
|
 |
The SoundSuite Difference |
| The flexibility of the D2Audio SoundSuite means that an immersive, home theater sensory experience and superlative sound can be obtained from unexpected places such as flat panel TVs, media PCs, and iPod docking stations. |

D2Audio SoundSuite WideSound |
|
|
|
The WideSound feature of D2Audio SoundSuite is an advanced two-channel image field enhancement designed to widen the sound stage. Typical television and docking speakers are usually placed so close to each other that the impression of expansive space is lost with most content. WideSound expands the impression of space in these situations.
D2Audio SoundSuite WideSound:
- Creates listening cues giving the impression that the sound stage is much wider than it actually is.
- Delivers a compelling and immersive audio experience from movies to music.

D2Audio SoundSuite DeepBass |
|
|
|
D2Audio SoundSuite DeepBASS, an advanced intelligent feature of D2Audio SoundSuite, uses psycho-acoustics and dynamic filtering to achieve sophisticated bass enhancement.
- Delivers the perception of deep rich bass (as much an octave below the physical low frequency limitation of small speakers
- Enhances bass performance by utilizing dynamic psycho-acoustic and filtering techniques so that even small speakers deliver a compelling bass response

D2Audiol SoundSuite AudioAlign |
|
|
|
AudioAlign is the image alignment portion of D2Audio SoundSuite. It has the unique capability of elevating the sound field from a pair of non-optimally placed stereo speakers to align with the physical position of the video display.
Many systems are forced to locate speakers below the display, which means that the sound and the video seem to be disconnected. AudioAlign raises the apparent sound source height for bottom mounted speakers to the height of video display. This image alignment selectively shapes the frequency characteristics of the input signal to create the appropriate perception of image height.
When combined with WideSound, AudioAlign creates a completely immersive sound image field. |

D2Audio SoundSuite DigitalEQ |
|
D2Audio SoundSuite DigitalEQ, an advanced intelligent feature of D2Audio SoundSuite, is a system level speaker correction and optimizations with preset content/source voicing.
D2Audio's Audio Performance Lab performs a product/system level optimization to maximize sound quality and audio performance for each specific product. This optimization is incorporated into all of the DigitalEQ settings.
Examples of preset EQ settings optimized for:
- Voice
- Music (Jazz, Country, Classical, Rock, etc.)
- Movie
- Custom (end-customer setting using 5-band parametric EQ)
- On-wall and off-wall room compensation is supported
