The iHome Studio Series featuring Bongiovi Acoustics DPS (Digital Power Station) represents a genuine breakthrough in audio processing. This unique and powerful processor, years in the making, was developed by a team of audio engineers that have over 40 years of experience in the music and motion picture recording industries. Audio is digitally restored in real time, adding missing harmonics, improving clarity, presence, and bass resonance. Your music comes alive in ways never before possible.
