Add Body and Sparkle to Your Audio

For years, professional audio engineers and producers have relied on Aphex's Aural Exciter to brighten up sound dulled by lo-fi equipment or a difficult A/D transfer, and now you can add this sonic solution to your 500 Series chassis with the Aphex EX-BB 500 Aural Exciter 500 Series module! The EX-BB 500 dramatically enhances the presence and clarity of your audio signals. On the high end, the Aural Exciter restores natural brightness and improves sonic detail. The Big Bottom performs a similar function on the low end, providing deeper, more resonant bass with little or no increase in peak output. If your audio needs some extra oomph and pizazz, get the Aphex EX-BB 500 Aural Exciter 500 Series module.

Aphex EX-BB 500 Aural Exciter 500 Series Module at a Glance:

  • Enhance loudness without adding volume

  • Optical Big Bottom for bigger bass
  • Great problem solver in a variety of applications
Enhance loudness without adding volume

The Aphex EX-BB 500 is more than just another audio enhancer, it actually extends your high frequencies for a greater perceived loudness without an introduction of noise into the audio path due to increased gain. Vocals and instruments leap out without raising individual volumes in the mix.

Optical Big Bottom for bigger bass

The same can be said for the Optical Big Bottom capabilities of the Aphex EX-BB 500, except on the opposite end of the sonic spectrum. Big Bottom tightens and boosts the bass, allowing individual notes to be more articulated and recognizable, providing a deeper, more resonant bass without overloading the sound system.

Great problem solver in a variety of applications

With the Exciter in your setup, your audio will be fuller, bigger, and generally sound louder, but with little or no increase in peak volume. This is a versatile tool for a huge range of applications, from recording to broadcast to performance. Any time you need to inject some life and excitement into your audio, reach for the Aphex EX-BB 500.
