Description

The B&W Matrix 800 Series Bass Alignment Filter is a dedicated active equalizer designed specifically to optimize the low-frequency performance of B&W Matrix 800 Series loudspeakers. This device is a key component of the audio system designed according to John Bower's vision, allowing the speakers to be transformed from a fourth-order Bessel alignment to a sixth-order Butterworth system. The variable high-pass filter with a Q of 2.0 extends the frequency response down a half-octave, significantly improving bass extension without compromising system sensitivity. The fully discrete circuitry uses dedicated transistors instead of amplifiers. operaintegrated equalizers, ensuring maximum sound quality and long-lasting reliability. The compact design allows the device to be placed behind amplifiers without taking up additional rack space, while the integrated mute relay prevents power-on and power-off noise. This equalizer is essential for fully exploiting the potential of the Matrix 800, 801, 802, 803, 804 and 805 loudspeakers, offering precise control of the fase and the propagation time of low frequencies.
