As consumer
technology advances at ever faster rates, professional technology increasingly
finds itself trying to keep up. An example of this is the advent of the Blu-ray
and other high definition formats that have increased the audio channel count to
7.1.
The KH 810 is an answer to these new demands by offering a new 7.1 High
Definition Bass Manager�. This is compatible with all standard consumer formats
from mono through to the latest
7.1 HD systems. Eight channels of analog ensures flexible interconnectivity for
modern studios. Four-mode LFE-channel processing guarantees compatibility across
all formats and industries. Forth-order crossovers and flexible acoustical
controls allow for seamless system integration. Built-in volume control and a
hardware remote control allows for centralized system control independent of the
source, and the electronics can be remote located to reduce cabling
The latest amplifier technology and acoustical components have been used to
ensure the most accurate sound reproduction possible. Robust drivers, a
rock-solid cabinet, and carefully designed ports guarantee a tight, articulate,
and distortion-free low frequency reproduction, even at high replay levels.
Using the sum output, Plane Wave Bass Array� (PWBA�) techniques acoustically
improves lateral consistency in the listening area. The bass extends down to 18
Hz.
The KH 810 subwoofer is designed to complement our extensive range of monitors,
and can be used on its own, or daisy-chained to make larger systems capable of
higher SPL. The KH 810 can be used in music, broadcast, and post production
studios for tracking, mixing, and mastering. The cabinet can be positioned next
to a wall or flush mounted into a wall due to the front mounted port, and can be
mixed freely in multichannel systems with other loudspeakers. |
