Subwoofer system (option al)
The bass loudspeaker and the two loudspeakers form a so-called subwoofer system for true
listening pleasure. The internal loudsp eake rs a re used to generate the middle and high-frequency
tones, while the bass loudspeaker is used to generate the low-frequency tones. As it is impossible to
detect the exact direction of low-frequency sounds, only one bass loudspeaker is required. This
speaker can be positioned anywhere you like (e.g. on the underside of the notebook).
