Meridian Technologies:
Pro-Active Bass

  • Luxury Home Audio

All drive units have a maximum distance that the cone can move back and forth, and the required travel increases with decreasing frequency. Therefore, to play back low frequencies at high volumes, the drive unit can be at risk of being pushed beyond its mechanical limits. 

Meridian Proactive Bass actively monitors the audio being sent to the woofers and models the cone displacement that it will cause. It then applies processing to protect the woofers from over-excursion, ensuring maximum bass output without damaging the drive units.
