Dirac Live Bass Control for leading AV receivers

Dirac Live Bass Control has officially found its way to a range of models from a series of leading manufacturers of AV processors and receivers. That’s great news for home cinema and audio enthusiasts!

Consistent accurate bass

The Dirac Live Bass Control feature is powered by machine learning (AI) and co-optimizes a system’s subs and speakers to deliver consistent bass performance in the entire room. Dirac Live Bass Control is the second feature offered through the Dirac Live room acoustics product, which also includes Dirac Live Room Correction room calibration tool.

Speaker and subwoofer sound waves bounce throughout a space and collide with one another to create crossover areas with uneven bass distribution. Dirac Live Bass Control measures and phase corrects both the speakers and subwoofers across all frequencies to produce enhanced bass clarity and improved bass tone evenness throughout the room. It’s a game-changing feature for the home theater industry that’s now available through some of the world’s finest AVRs. Niklas Thorin – General Manager Dirac


Featured by leading AVR brands

All StormAudio, Bryston, and Focal models currently equipped with Dirac Live Room Correction are now also equipped with Dirac Live Bass Control (Complete), as will soon be true of all JBL Synthesis AVRs. Arcam’s AVR10, AVR20, AVR30, and AVR40 units. AudioControl’s Concert XR-4, XR-6, XR-8 and Maestro X7 and X9 will also soon be equipped with Dirac Live Bass Control Complete.

Publisher

Marco Lisi is the publisher of Best of High End, part of AV Concepts BV. His path into audio started early: as a teenager he was drawn into the world of free radio, presenting shows and living immersed in music every day. In his early twenties he ran his own production studio for five years, creating jingles and commercials — hands-on training in sound design, pro-audio workflows, and critical listening through studio monitors that still shapes how he evaluates gear today. He also spent years DJing in clubs before moving into publishing, first at two earlier online magazines before founding Best of High End. His hi-fi and home cinema passion was inherited from his father, an inveterate system-swapper. Marco's first setup — a confirmation gift — paired AKAI separates with entry-level Bowers & Wilkins speakers, a brand he stayed loyal to for years as his system grew from stereo into full surround and home cinema. Like many enthusiasts, he went through an extended "audiophile" phase chasing the next upgrade, before settling into a more grounded view: gear as a means to enjoy music and film, not an end in itself. Years of critical listening have given him a well-trained ear — the ability to characterize a system or pinpoint a change in the chain quickly and accurately. Just as important, his teaching background (a Belgian "regent" degree in Dutch language) gives him the tools to translate those listening impressions into clear, readable writing.
