Beats Audio

Beats Audio™
Beats Audio™ technology was created to redefine what digital music playback should be. A superior audio system has emerged from HP's exclusive partnership with Dr. Dre and legendary music producer Jimmy Iovine, one that reproduces the original sonic integrity of digital tracks–letting you hear the music the way recording artists intended. Minimal background noise and clear separation let you feel every note, for rich textures and subtle details you weren't able to hear before. Only HP PCs have Beats Audio™ inside, so experience the music you love in a brand new dimension.
