"Overpriced. Check out ProfoundSound - it's only $5!"
Version: DFX Audio Enhancer 11.109
Pros
1. It uninstalled...
Cons
1. I really think it was overpriced and the quality wasn't even that good.
Summary
Seriously look into ProfoundSound. I tried it on my laptop and was amazed at the improvements. Plus it's only $5!

"O.K. for a freebee"
Version: DFX Audio Enhancer 11.109
Pros
It does enhance the sound quality somewhat
Cons
It inserts itself as your main speaker controller and options are severely limited
Summary
If you don't care about software taking control of things without asking permission or offering options, go for it

"Great Audio Enhancer even out of the box."
Version: DFX Audio Enhancer 11.109
Pros
- Hooks into the Windows audio system thereby making it work with ANY application (e.g. Web browser, media player, PC games, etc). Also works alongside other audio enhancers that come with your sound card and/or media player if you choose to use them as well.
- Works with multi-channel audio systems including 5.1 and 7.1 surround (and does NOT downsample to stereo).
- Very light-weight; does not put excessive load on system resources; latency/buffer is adjustable too.
- Since the newer versions, the dynamic boost and hyperbass do not produce clipping even when maxed out.
- Very straightforward user interface with a lot of presets to suit all personal tastesCons
- Treble can be a little harsh but you can always reduce or even disable the "Fidelity" slider to compensate.
- Customer support is VERY slow at responding to e-mails (sometimes over a month before you get a response which is unacceptable)
- Headphones mode seems to degrade the sound quality. I'd recommend keeping it on "Speakers" even if you are using headphones.Summary
As my One-line summary states, it's a great audio enhancer right out of the box and there are plenty of presets to choose in order to appeal to your personal taste. Even if the under-lying technology is very simple (I wouldn't know this for sure), it works as advertised and does its job well.
Unlike what another reviewer stated, it DOES NOT disable itself and demand you pay an "upgrade fee". Instead, you are required to pay for any major update such as going from v10.x to v11.x but can continue using your existing installation (in this example, 10.x) if you'd like. -
"50% Downtime, Absolutely No Support. Scam Promotions!"
Version: DFX Audio Enhancer 11.109
Pros
Work great when it works!
Cons
During 2 Years DFX had 50% Downtime, No support ay all! They did not reply to any emails asking for help except for once - One Year Later! Their latest promotion is a scam; they disable your DFX and then ask you to pay extra for their upgrade which will fix the problem they created. All the downloads and customer dissatisfaction is more like 2 years of torture. You are better off not getting this defective software and service - as there is no service.

"A useless piece of software!"
Version: DFX Audio Enhancer 11.109
Pros
Nothing. Just nothing!
Cons
It is using an equalizer and a limiter (to avoid clipping).
Every audio player has a built-in equalizer!
Alters the sound in a very non-professional way. -
"Works great"
Version: DFX Audio Enhancer 11.109
Pros
Easy to install, makes even old 128 bit mp3s sound better.
Cons
Avoid the toolbar/homepage install(s).
Summary
Does what it says, doesn't nag but once in a while.
All the whiners obviously just clicked on everything without reading anything.
