How Does PBK-1™ Do What It Does? |
|
| The process begins when your computer signals the subwoofer to play the test signal, which is then picked up by the individually calibrated microphone. The system puts the subwoofer through a frequency sweep to highlight problem areas and determine necessary adjustments. It asks you to position the microphone in at least five different locations. Configurations are then saved on the connected PC. The optimized solutions are calculated, then uploaded to the subwoofer and the calculated room corrections are put in place. An audiophile solution to the problem of "the room"! |

Unlike Many "Room EQ" Systems, PBK-1™ Applies Correction to Peaks (modes) and Dips (anti-modes) |
|
| Tackling both allows us to achieve a far more accurate and natural room response. And to limit the demands on the amplifier as well as maximize signal-to-noise ratio, PBK-1™ applies appropriate limits to this correction. |

PBK-1™ is Ultra-Accurate |
|
| The connected PC's 64-bit floating-point processor does the hard work of calculating the correction curves, which greatly minimizes rounding errors due to a less sophisticated "calculator". |

Frequency Response |
|
| The frequency response of each PBK-1™ microphone is measured precisely and the data is used to create the microphone's calibration file included on the PBK-1™ software disk. The microphone can only be used with the matching individual calibration file. |

PBK-1™ Allows for Multiple Microphone Measurements |
|
| Most room equalization methods work from a single point source, taking one measurement at the primary listening position. PBK-1™ however, provides for multiple user-selected measurement points (we suggest a minimum of five, but up to ten positions can be measured), beginning with a measurement at the primary listening position and then moving across the listening area. This process is critical to properly dealing with standing waves and ensuring optimal bass performance throughout the listening area. |
