DIRAC ART ADVANCED ROOM CALIBRATION
The APR-16 fully leverages DIRAC-licensed technologies to minimize unwanted acoustic effects imposed by the listening environment that compromise loudspeaker performance. Dirac’s Room Correction, Bass Control, and Active Room Treatment algorithms seamlessly integrate with Hyperion’s advanced, high-performance ARM-based DSP architecture, working in real-time to balance loudspeaker response for spatially accurate, optimized playback across all audio sources.
