Intrinsic Correction

K and KW Series feature Intrinsic Correction™, a process found on many of our high-end concert sound products. Far more than just simple signal processing, Intrinsic Correction begins with between 60 and 75 extensive measurements of the loudspeaker's characteristics taken across a spatial field. The results of those measurements are then averaged.

Utilizing an average derived from this many sampling points produces results that are far more representative of the loudspeaker's performance than taking a typical, single on-axis measurement. Next, a combination of IIR and FIR filters is applied in the DSP engine to adjust time, frequency and amplitude response to a maximally flat band-pass target.

The end result is a loudspeaker with flat "power response", meaning that the overall energy radiated by the loudspeaker is even across its operating range. Those wishing to learn more may read the Intrinsic Correction White Paper.
