* Active Clear Sound (ACS)
The Active Clear Sound (ACS) circuit emphasizes high-frequency sound
without lowering the signal-noise ratio, while adjusting its output according
to the input signal level. This results in a better balance between the
high-frequency sound and the low-frequency heavy bass sound.
Note:
This fuction has no effect with monaural sound sources.
