Hardware, Perfected.
With speakers, one size most certainly doesn't fit all. To get the best possible sound from a device, we take a lot of time to make sure we're using speakers that are a perfect match for its physical characteristics, carefully choosing from a wide selection of shapes, sizes and specifications.
Once they've chosen the ideal speakers, the ASUS Golden Ear team works closely with the product design team to make sure the speakers are placed in just the right position for maximum audio fidelity. This decision has to take many complex factors into account,such as the dimensions of the sound chamber and the direction the speaker is pointing.
