our powerful speakers create immersive sound, tuned by the ASUS Golden Ear team. The quad-speaker array shapes sound and ensures best-reproduction and delivery. Beamforming and crosstalk cancellation join Head-Related Transfer Function (HRTF) technology to clear up audio, remove interference what is quad speaker array ? do it have four internal speakers using 4 channels if it can use crosstalk cancellation and HRTF ? Node 0x0e [Audio Mixer] wcaps 0x20010b: Stereo Amp-In

does it help if you mute the input from audio mixer 0x0b into node 0x0e ?
https://www.asus.com/au/Notebooks_Ultrabooks/N550JV seem four speakers at the front bottom of the laptop Yes, it's four speakers and an external subwoofer. Not sure about muting the audio mixer node. If it helps, there was a recent bug concerning the same sound system, where the subwoofer wasn't working. It was fixed in 3.13-rc1: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=65091 do you mean four speakers only use stereo ? do all four speakers playback sound ? do you mean the two speakers at the left playback the left channel and the two speakers at the right playback the right channel ? how do the speakers works windows ? when audio wizzard 1) music mode 2) movies mode 3) record mode 4) gaming mode 5) speech mode Do maxxaudio support 5.1 or 7.1 downmix playback ? maxxstereo are there any differences of the sound in four speakers in wide mode and the other modes ?

http://www.maxx.com/technologies/maxxaudio/ MaxxVolume uses a powerful combination of high level compression to increase RMS levels, low level compression to increase the clarity of soft sounds, and noise gating to eliminate signal and system noise does the sub woofer need low pass filter ? It seems you can adjust the low cutoff frequency with the maxxaudio control panel, so I think it uses a low pass filter. Here's specifics: http://www.maxx.com/objects/PDF/MaxxAudio%20Master%20for%20Asus%20N-Series%20User%20Guide.pdf I would guess that the sub woofer needs a low pass filter, since when I got it working on linux, you could hear more than just the bass. are there any difference in surround 2.1 http://git.alsa-project.org/?p=alsa-lib.git;a=commitdiff;h=57b5076c30b3453ee843912c0aeb3df8dbee3f68;hp=326c6802e49e5499e16cf141e1cdb0360fce14aa 1) http://www.asus.com/ROG_ROG/G75VW/ SonicMaster Lite powerful audio with built-in subwoofer vt1802 is only 4 channels 2) http://www.asus.com/Notebooks_Ultrabooks/N56VZ/ alc663 is 6 channels SonicMaster Premium with stereo speakers with external subwoofer 3) your N550JV SonicMaster Preium with quad-speaker array and external subwoofer alc668 is 6 channels do you mean quad speaker array are working as same as in windows ? http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/pulseaudio-discuss/2014-February/019996.html pulseaudio don't provide low pass filter for LFE channel you also need hack in driver if surround21 need 6 channel if quad speaker array only need stereo you can try automute via amp instead of pinctl https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/tiwai/sound.git/commit/?id=493a52a9b6645f61954580c7d4bd52fa62110934 |
