Active Room Treatment (ART)
Key Benefits
-
Calibrate your speakers as a unified system, using your speakers to control your room—not the other way around.
-
Actively cancel out lingering bass to reduce room decay time and eliminate bass smearing.
-
Optimize sound performance across a wider area for a larger, more uniform “sweet spot.”
-
Eliminates the need for bulky and expensive in-room acoustical treatment.

---|---|---|
Room Correction | Bass Control | Active Room Treatment |
Enhances the performance of individual speakers by compensating for room acoustic problems. | Ensures the collaboration between subwoofers and main speakers by smoothing out the bass at the crossover point and below. | Cancels out room resonances and reduces the room decay time. Controls the room acoustic properties using existing speakers. |
Mixed-phase impulse response correction to correct the magnitude and phase/timing of each speaker individually, resulting in an improved average sound performance. | Phase co-optimization technology to automatically fine-tune delays, gains, and phase shifts in the bass region of each speaker jointly. | MIMO mixed-phase impulse response correction makes all speakers cooperate to control the room by sending out anti-signals to cancel out low-frequency resonances. |
Transparent sound, improved staging, and voice intelligence. | Consistent bass experience throughout the listening area. | Tighter and cleaner bass and low-mids without ringing and a larger sweet spot with reduced spatial variation. |

Dirac Live Room Correction and Bass Control effectively manage two distinct aspects of room-speaker interaction. However, neither addresses room decay time throughout the listening space or eliminating remaining room resonances.
