This delayed bass causes music to lose its impact and reduces the sense of the recorded space – it is often described as “boomy”.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe goal is to have time-accurate loudspeakers, where all reproduced frequencies start and end at the same time. In a loudspeaker, this timing is affected by the crossover, driver, and enclosure type. To eliminate the delay between low, and mid and high frequencies, Meridian has designed a combination of digital filters and time delays for the mid and high frequencies. This solution enables the mid and high frequencies to “wait” for the low frequencies, delivering perfectly-timed music playback.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMid and high frequencies are delayed to time-align them, while upper bass is delayed with a special type of patented filter. These features must be implemented entirely in the digital domain, making them impossible to achieve in any passive or analogue-active loudspeaker design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEnhanced Bass Alignment provides accurate time-alignment of the drivers in the system, delivering exceptional imaging and a clear, transparent, more life like sound.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Meridian Audio","offers":[{"title":"Gloss Black","offer_id":57945281724803,"sku":"659","price":35000.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gloss White","offer_id":57945281757571,"sku":"13422","price":35000.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0939\/9356\/6595\/files\/659-1MeridianDSP7200SEGrilleOnSoundcraftHiFi_48920ed2-db5b-42fa-bbf4-97c19c592478.jpg?v=1777558702"},{"product_id":"meridian-dsp9-active-floorstanding-speakers-pair","title":"Meridian DSP9 Active Floorstanding Speakers (Pair)","description":"\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAcoustic and Visual Masterpiece\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDSP9 is the latest product to emerge from Meridian’s groundbreaking Extreme Engineering Programme; a result of years of investment and research at the extreme edge of audio design.
