Image Focus

Meridian Image Focus applies a combination of gains and delays in order to correct for off-centre listening and ensure that the original soundstage is maintained. 

In the ideal listening setup, the listener will be sat equidistant from the left and right speakers, however in real-world setups this cannot always be achieved, and the listener(s) will be sat closer to one of the speakers. This leads to a distortion of the soundstage and in extreme cases can lead to the sound “collapsing” to the nearest speaker.

CHALLENGE

Speakers cannot always be positioned equidistant from the listener(s) which leads to a distorted soundstage.

SOLUTION

Image Focus uses a combination of gains and delays to give the impression that the speakers are equidistant from the listener(s).

RESULT

Image focus corrects for off-centre listening and ensures that the original soundstage is maintained
