Acoustic Technologies BSP2.6 loudspeaker management system is a high performance, easy to use signal processor for loudspeaker systems, providing processing for up to stereo 3-way or mono 6-way configurations. The BSP2.6 provides generous amounts of signal processing capability and a wide variety of crossover shapes.
The unit may be controlled just as comprehensively from its front panel, or by using the PodWare software application. PodWare can operate a single BSP2.6, or can optionally control a multi-km network of products using the BvNET networking standard.
The BSP2.6 uses 96kHz sampling rate, Burr-Brown analogue-to-digital converter, the renowned Wolfson multi-bit digital-to analogue converter, and a powerful 3rd generation Sharc Digital signal Processor. All this adds up to deliver the ultimate in sonic transparency and a stunning open, natural sound quality.
The BSP2.6 is capable of crossovers up to 8th order (48dB/Octave). In addition to the usual Butterworth, Linkwitz-Riley and Bessel filter shapes, the BSP2.6 also provides access to Hardman crossover filtering. Hardman filters produce much steeper cutoff slopes for a given order than conventional crossover alignments, without any additional group delay. This allows a lower order filter to be used without sacrificing cut-off characteristics, but with smoother group delay and less severe phase penalties, giving a more natural sound. Hardman filters also provide identical phase characteristics between adjacent bands (like Linkwitz-Riley), so the polar performance is rock steady.
