Digital Amping
Enhanced Efficiency and Dynamic Response
With an efficiency rating topping the 90% mark,
digital power amps are smaller, lighter, and more
compact than comparable conventional amps.
The reduced thermal load on components clearly
enhances reliability. The slew rate is far faster and
the damping factor is higher, resulting in audibly
more responsive and accurate performance.
• Outperforms analog power amps in efficiency for
greater reliability and lower current consumption
• Faster signal transmission for enhanced dynamic
response
OFR™
Optimized Frequency Response Technology
HK AUDIO®’s unique OFR™ technology deliver
commanding yet well-balanced sound at every level.
It corrects for non-linear frequency response in the
speaker components at the same time as it compen-
sates for the way human hearing works at varying
levels.
• Fine-tuned to each system
• Rectifies non-linear frequency response
• Adapts the system to different volumes
• Powerful, balanced sound in every situation
MultiBand Limiting
Specialized limiting for each frequency range
Several limiters, each specializing in its own
frequency range, work side by side to keep the entire
system under control. This ensures even dynamic
response and punchy projection for a highly musical
sound across the entire frequency spectrum.
• Tighter low-end punch, snappier kick
• Clean, emphatic mids for smooth, rich vocals
• Transparent, glossy highs with extra headroom
• Speaker overload protection
Subsonic Filter
Preventing Low Frequency Interference
The integrated subsonic filter eliminates accidental
and unintentional signals such as footfalls, wind,
or the sound of a hand accidentally brushing a
microphone. It cuts these frequencies drastically,
freeing energy to render bass impulses better.
Goodbye squashed dynamics and artificial sound,
hello authenticity and natural sounding low/mid
frequencies.
• Increases power and volume in the useful
frequency range
• Protects power amps and speakers from harmful
ultra-low frequencies
DuoTilt™ and MicroTilt™
Making the Most of Sonic Energy
The new DuoTilt™ and MicroTilt™ speaker stand
mounting collars allow sound energy to be utilized
far more efficiently. The DuoTilt™ offers down-
ward angles of 7.5° and 15°, and MicroTilt™ 10°, to
better aim the mid/high-range cabinets directly at
the audience. Troublesome ceiling reflections are
minimized; the soundscape is clearer, tighter, and
more focused.
• Tilts at angles designed for the best possible
alignment of the enclosure to the audience
• Minimizes ceiling reflections, maximizes energy
efficiency
Easy Setup and Handling
Less Pre-Gig Stress for a Better Show
All HK AUDIO® Active Systems were designed
as cohesive units consisting of perfectly matched
components. Painstaking effort was invested in
developing systems that are easily transported and
swiftly set up. Operation couldn’t be easier; endless
tweaking is a thing of the past.
• A true system design: All components were
perfectly matched for performance as a unit.
• Fast set-up and effortless handling saves time and
spells less pre-performance stress
