ASUS has announced a new collaboration with Dirac, the Swedish digital audio pioneer, to increase the audio experience across the Asus line of devices. Whether it be the new ROG Phone 7 series or the Vivobook and Expertbook series of laptops, Dirac looks to implement a new home theater audio experience no matter the size of the speakers. All three Dirac-enabled ASUS mobile devices were on display at Computex 2023. According to Dirac CCO Mats Oberg, this continued collaboration helps to provide the ASUS community with the best-in-class gaming and media experiences through unrivaled immersive audio performance.

“Working directly with global technology leaders is core to our mission to improve the state of digital sound reproduction across various device types and use cases,” said Oberg. “By integrating Dirac Virtuo into ASUS’ new flagship smartphones and laptops, we are delivering on our vision to show the world that immersive, clear, and balanced sound experiences don’t only have to come from an expensive surround sound theater system. We are committed to working with device makers of all types to ensure premium sound experiences are available to everyone, everywhere.”

For the smartphones and laptops offered by ASUS, Dirac Virtuo offers immersive sound simply from the built-in speakers while also enhancing the overall sound quality as the focus is to compensate for the shortcomings of small speakers. This means increased acoustic performance and a much wider soundstage. Headphones will also receive a boost when connected to the ROG Phone 7. High-resolution binaural impulse response technology helps to restore speaker crosstalk and correct the stereo soundstage. Audio will come from a pair of premium stereo speakers in
