that its smoothest response was 15 degrees down from straight ahead (aimed right at the listener’s knees!), all because you didn’t pay proper attention to lobing behavior.

We all know that speakers lobe. So why not take advantage of that fact instead of fighting it? That’s what our exclusive Directional Vector Control (DVC™) does.

By flipping the DVC switch to “on,” we electronically manipulate the crossover so that the speaker’s midrange output lobes down about 15 degrees from the speaker. This is perfect for when this speaker is mounted above ear level and you want to

use them for front-channel LCR duty. The midrange sounds—which determine directionality and intelligibility—are directed down at the seated listeners’ ears, even though the speakers are six or seven feet above the floor. The following graph shows the measured response of this speaker at the listening position; red is DVC off, blue is DVC on.

Therefore, between the low crossover point of LRT and the up-down midrange lobing of the DVC, we’ve engineered a speaker that covers the listening area more effectively, without the drawbacks and compromises of ordinary high-crossover pivoting tweeters, and without having to resort to the expense of a three-way design.

We’ve also included a Boundary control to compensate for the upper bass/lower midrange buildup that occurs when a speaker is mounted near a ceiling or wall boundary, and there’s a three-position HF level control to adjust tweeter level for varying room acoustics.
