New Level of Sound Performance

MSI Premium Sound Technology
The complex and interconnected elements that comprise excellent sound were painstakingly identified one by one to ascertain how to systematically develop the proper notebook technologies. The four directions used to develop MSI Premium Sound Technology are summarized below.

Speaker Placement
In the past, limited space on notebooks meant speaker position was always considered last, which resulted in muddled sound in notebook speakers. Because of this, speaker position was considered during the initial stages of FX720 development to facilitate optimum audio performance and to avoid sacrificing audio quality for incorrect speaker placement.

 

 





Optimized Speaker Design
The speakers of FX720, having undergone design optimization, are capable of transmitting authentic audio without sound degradation. With improved sound permeability, listeners won't feel sharp sounds and will experience less interference. Audio will sound thoroughly clear and lifelike. High, mid, and low range frequencies are also more balanced, giving an impression of layered and transparent audio that makes listeners feel like they are in a sound stage.
 

EQ Tuning─ Adjusted for Optimization of All Types of Sounds
Different types of music represent distinct requirements for sound ambience. Jazz, pop, rock, or classical all possess special characteristics that affect computer game and movie sound performance and each has specific tone balance requirements. To express different types of music authentically, MSI spent over 1,200 hours of continuous, repetitive testing and fine tuning of high, mid, and low range frequencies so authentic reproduction of different types of music can be achieved.

 

Sound Card Circuit Design Optimization
Speakers and their placement are not the only things that affect sound performance; the audio processing center of a notebook, the sound card, also plays a decisive role. Only sound that goes through high quality sound card processing, and speaker transmission free from tonal corruption can guarantee original sound reproduction.

 
 

MSI understand the profound importance of sound card quality, so sound card of FX720 was specially augmented by strengthening its sound card circuit design to achieve an optimal configuration that allows for even cleaner and more penetrating sound. Whether playing DVDs, CDs, or Blu-ray DVDs, FX720 is capable of easily reproducing original sound and conveying every authentic acoustic detail!

 


When listening to a symphony orchestra, you'll be able to truly sense the relative position of each instrument and the size and power of each instrument's sound, as if an orchestra were playing right in front of you!

 

THX TruStudio Pro to Provide Excellent Surround Sound Effect
THX TruStudio Pro is specially designed to bring the same great audio experience found in live performances, films, and recording studios— to the PC. THX TruStudio Pro provides the latest groundbreaking technologies that are products of years of collective experience and research by Creative and THX.
