Boomy, muddy bass?

Everyone loves the huge sound and dynamics of a great floorstander. And the experience is often great, except for one thing. The bass. In typical listening rooms, boomy, muddy bass is the norm.

Bass right on this song, wrong on the next?
The response is often uneven, making the bass either too loud or too soft depending on the song or volume. And despite the size and number of drivers, the dynamics often leave something to be desired.

Let's try something different.

Traditional speakers radiate sound in all directions. This means less energy at the listening position and severe reflections from the walls. This leaves you with a distorted and inferior version of the original sound. It also messes up the bass.

While our statement monitor MANTA takes room and directivity control to the extreme, the SBS.1 has a few tricks up its sleeve as well. Separating bass to subwoofers combined with good directivity control, means the SBS.1 will sound similar wherever you are in the room, and bass response is better controlled.

Thanks to the point source characteristics of the coax driver, the soundstage is both wide and precise at the same time.
