Dirac Research’s Bass Management Module Goes Live
The Bass Management Module will be made available in three tiers. These range from a free tier that does basic bass management and EQ, to upgrade tiers that additionally provide subwoofer phase-alignment and EQ for multiple subwoofers. Carrying out bass management with Dirac Live requires that the receiver or amp have a network connection, and can be controlled via either a PC/Mac desktop or Android/iOS app.
During my demo of the technology, I heard a substantial difference in low-end extension and power with the Bass Management module activated. The response of the PSB tower speakers and subwoofer used for the demo was also impressively linear from top-to-bottom, and it remained so over a range of seating positions and when I stood up and walked around the room.
Dirac expects to make the Bass Management module available in Q2 or Q3. Pricing for upgrade tiers is TBD.
