 I just wanted to mention that Sonic Focus, audio enrichment software that enabled the audiophile sound quality of the new NX90, is provided by Virage Logic Corp. Here is what the audio expert at ASUS had to say about the software. "Until now, no one has successfully built an audiophile-quality laptop PC. The ASUS NX90 has achieved our goal of creating the ultimate audiophile experience, previously only available in high-end home theater speaker systems," said Henry Huang, senior specialist, ASUS. "With Virage Logic's Sonic Focus software we have exceeded our original expectations for audio fidelity. The Sonic Focus audio enrichment software tools enabled our sound designers to manage and configure unique digital signal processing software blocks, create a wide and believable soundstage and enabled ASUS to achieve optimum audio for movie and music from our specially crafted notebook speakers. The result is superlative sound that you'll have to hear to believe and remains true to the original intent of the artist. We are delighted with the result."
