Wisdom Audio will unveil its new SC-2 and SC-3 system controllers at CEDIA 2017.
The second-generation controllers are designed to help installers quickly and
confidently overcome acoustic problems with calibration tools that solve unpredictable
and complex audio distortions in any installation.
“Wisdom Audio has been providing electronic room acoustic solutions for over a
decade, helping installers fine-tune the frequency response of our speakers in real-
world installations. This helps achieve the best high-performance audio and clarity not
just in our lab but in the most important environment — the end-user’s home,” said
Luc Guillaume, managing director, Wisdom Audio. “Dirac Live by Dirac Research is the
most advanced room correction technology available today, and with the platform’s
impulse response and frequency response adjustment, our system controller will
ensure a pristine listening experience in even the most challenging environment.”
The SC-2 is a 2RU system controller offering 8-channel in to 16-channel out, while the
SC-3 is a 3RU platform providing 16-channel in to 32-channel out. Both units operate
at 24-bit 96 kHz and provide the necessary digital active crossover and digital EQ
profiles for all Wisdom Audio loudspeakers. Now featuring Dirac Live, a platform for
optimised sound enhancement technology, both controllers are designed to perfect
sound in any listening room by removing resonances and acoustic problems in sound
reproduction — creating a natural, realistic and transparent sound with tighter bass,
reducing early reflections and room colouration — without the need for room
treatments. Expert Mode provides installers with an additional layer of live tuning
features, equalisation tools, and the ability to override delays and trim EQ to optimise
system performance in the most difficult acoustic scenarios. With four preset slots to
store up to four complete and independent calibrations, installers have plenty of space
to perform multiple room correction setups for up to 16 zones or rooms.
“Wisdom Audio is a leader in exceptional high-resolution audio technology and
performance. This leadership is driven in part by the company’s intensive
understanding of acoustics barriers that no speaker alone can overcome,” said Niklas
Thorin, general manager of high performance at Dirac Research. “When the clarity of
Wisdom Audio’s planar magnetic drivers solutions are paired with Dirac Live, installers
are able to conquer any environmental flaws that can impede with delivering
absolutely stunning audio in any space.”
Dirac Research is a global leader in platform-optimised sound enhancement
technology. In addition to serving home theatre companies, their solutions are also
used by blue chip technology companies in the mobile, automotive and professional
audio industries.
