CLEAR AND PRECISE
The tri-amplified amps design is controlled by our proprietary multicore DSP. This means that each of the mid-range drivers, tweeters, and subwoofer drivers are individually driven, delivering strong and impactful sound reproduction at every frequency. The soundbar also features a double-wall chassis construction to minimize disruptive vibrations, allowing the Sound Blaster Katana V2X to deliver pristine audio effortlessly.
IMMERSIVE SURROUND
The Sound Blaster Katana V2X delivers crystal clear and impressive room-filling sound with its 5.1 channel playback. Like its predecessor, the Sound Blaster Katana V2X is also a certified Dolby Audio1 decoder, so it can recreate the all-familiar cinematic experience in the comfort of your own home from a Dolby-certified source.
