Yes,
I have on my system you'll find if you have a lot of base in the audio as is
flat lining is the only option.
Those enhancements add depth, ie base.
Go ahead and try it rgb192 no harm :)

LOL so true Bill,

Thank you rgb192

When I had Bose speakers I had to measure the distance from the glass sliding doors/ windows for vibrations, large glass doors would actually vibrate and possibly crack,
 the better speakers have a larger magnet and the frequencies travel further.
I just love how I could sit on the couch and feel the vibration in my chest with certain tracks.
Bose applied its research in suspension systems to the problem of fatigue, back pain and physical stress experienced by truck drivers. In 2010, Bose introduced Bose Ride, an active system that reduces road-induced vibration in the driver's seat. Bose claims as much as a 90% reduction in driver's seat vibration, how's that for bass lol.
It's the low frequencies.
Cheers and thank you rgb192 glad to help.
