Sound Enhancements

All Cowon media players, starting with the iAUDIO 4, feature a set of sound enhancement technologies collectively referred to as JetEffect, including a technology known as BBE+, licensed from BBE Sound, Inc. The distinction between JetEffect and BBE+ is not always clear.

On Cowon media players, the JetEffect menu offers the following options:

  • A five-band semi-parametric equalizer
  • A “BBE+” menu with adjustable settings for “BBE+”, “Mach3Bass”, “3D Surround” and “MP Enhance”
  • A “Special Effects” menu with options for stereo enhancement and reverb algorithms

The latest version of JetEffect, JetEffect 5, was introduced with the January 19, 2012 (2012-01-19) release of the Cowon Z2 Plenue. It included an updated reverb algorithm, allowing the user to choose between nine different types of reverb timbres, including Chamber, Room, Club, Hall, Auditorium, Cathedral, Stadium, Canyon and Long.

All Cowon players following the D2+ (S9 and onwards) come with an updated version of BBE called BBE+.

    Close friends contribute to our personal growth. They also contribute to our personal pleasure, making the music sound sweeter, the wine taste richer, the laughter ring louder because they are there.
