AudioControl Architect Model 950 16 Channel Power Amplifier<>Speaker Optimizer

Description

Built For The Long Haul – The Architect™ 900 Series has been designed with durability in mind. The Lightdrive protection circuitry defends The Architect™ and your speakers against clipping, distortion, damage, and even teenage parties. Even if the party lasts all weekend. Each channel pair is independently protected so a problem in one channel will not affect the rest of the system. Specially-Designed Equalization Controls – (Model 950 and Model 951) The Architect™ 900 Series is intended to provide a dramatic sound improvement for “small” speakers, such as those with 6- inch and 8-inch woofers. The Architect’s 75Hz, 250Hz, 700Hz, 2500Hz and 12KHz band centers were chosen to optimize in-wall and 2-way bookshelf speakers at critical frequencies where adjustment is most advantageous. The bandwidths (or ‘Q’ as our engineering types call it) have also been optimized for the difficulties that in-wall speakers present. This allows The Architect™ 900 Series to improve the sound of these smaller speakers better than any other equalizer. PFM Subsonic Filter – The Architect’s Programmable Frequency Match (PFM) circuitry is a bass-blocking 40 Hz filter which protects small speakers and improves their overall sound. It gives small woofers only those frequencies they can use by “chopping off” bass below 40Hz. The woofer is protected and can do a better job of reproducing midbass and higher frequencies.
