with PSI Audio
The Reference for 3D Audio Monitoring
Precision in every direction. For music, film, broadcast and spatial audio.
A reference in every direction
To begin with, immersive audio places higher demands on monitoring than any other format. Whether you work in Dolby Atmos, Auro-3D, Sony 360RA, or custom multichannel formats, the same principle applies: the accuracy and consistency of your loudspeakers ultimately determine the precision of your work.
For this reason, PSI Audio monitors are built specifically for immersive applications. Thanks to perfect phase alignment, unmatched unit-to-unit consistency, and 100% analog signal integrity, PSI Audio creates a monitoring environment that reveals every detail — not only in stereo, but also in every direction around the listener.
As a result, from music production to film, broadcast, VR/AR, and installation environments, PSI Audio becomes the foundation for precise and reliable immersive monitoring.
Immersive audio
Why immersive audio requires exceptional monitoring
This is exactly why PSI Audio stands above the rest. Specifically, every loudspeaker is individually measured, calibrated, and verified by hand at our factory in Switzerland. As a result, this ensures complete uniformity in multi-speaker setups — something that, by contrast, DSP-based speakers or mass-produced units cannot guarantee.
Immersive audio is unforgiving. Even small inaccuracies become audible because the sound field depends on:
- Perfect timing between all speakers
- Identical frequency response across the system
- Stable imaging to form a 3D sound bubble
- Consistent speaker behavior at all playback levels
- Zero latency differences between channels
The PSI Audio advantage
Precision that surrounds you.
Perfect Phase for Perfect Imaging (CPR Technology)
Our CPR (Compensated Phase Response) ensures perfect analog phase alignment without DSP.
In immersive audio, coherent wavefronts are essential – PSI Audio guarantees this.
Identical Unit Matching
Every speaker is individually calibrated.
In a 7.1.4 or 9.1.6 system, this consistency is a major advantage.
Zero Latency, Zero DSP, Zero Artefacts
DSP-based monitors introduce latency differences between channels.
PSI Audio maintains true time-domain accuracy across all speakers.
Ultra-Low Distortion & Fast Transients
Transients define localization in immersive audio.
Our proprietary amplifiers and driver control technologies preserve these with surgical precision.
Swiss Manufacturing Precision
Every component, every assembly, every calibration – Swiss-made.
This is unmatched in consistency and quality.

Case studies
Immersive monitoring in action.
Case study 01 · SRG-SSR
Dolby Atmos in OB Van for Broadcasting
Recently, Swiss media company SRG-SSR has equipped three of its production OB Vans (a fourth is coming) with state-of-the-art immersive audio monitoring systems from PSI Audio. Specifically, one OB Van serves each of the SRG-SSR channels: RSI (Italian), RTS (French), and SRF (German). As a result, the company can provide optimized quality for mobile productions such as sports, entertainment, or musical events.
The vehicles, called PaaM-M, contain three PSI Audio A23-M monitors at the front, two A14-M surrounds, four A14-M units on the ceiling, and a Sub A125-M for LFE. All of these were immaculately integrated by Broadcast Solutions in an acoustics environment designed by Jochen Veith.
Moreover, the company’s engineers, who selected PSI Audio speakers through sophisticated blind tests, now report that they can sometimes achieve better results in the PaaM-M OB Van than in traditional studios. Since the PaaM-M vans were put into operation, RTS has equipped another OB Van with a similar PSI Audio system, and additional expansions to the fleet are planned.
Speakers used:
– LCR: A23-M
– Surrounds and heights: A14-M
– LFE: Sub A125-M
Case study 02 · University of Surrey
Big Immersive Audio Setup
Recently, the University of Surrey has installed a large immersive audio setup featuring 23 PSI Audio speakers in a new multi-purpose listening room. Specifically, the system includes 17 A23-M monitors, two A25-M units, and four Sub A225-M, forming an elaborate setup that can be adjusted to accommodate a variety of formats – ranging from ring of eight, quad, and stereo to 5.x and 7.x, as well as object-based formats like Dolby Atmos.
Thanks to this configuration, the university achieves excellence in media creation while benefiting from the pinnacle of Swiss precision sound – truly a match made in Surrey.

Frequently asked questions
Your immersive questions, answered.
Is PSI Audio suitable for Dolby Atmos?
Yes. In fact, many Atmos studios choose PSI Audio specifically for its phase accuracy and unit matching.
Do I need DSP correction in an immersive room?
No. PSI Audio achieves precision through analog engineering, not digital compensation.
Which speakers should I choose for height channels?
Can PSI Audio monitors be mixed with other brands?
Not recommended in immersive setups – it breaks coherence and imaging.
How many subwoofers do I need?
For a 7.1.4 room, one A225-M is often enough.
For 9.1.6 or larger rooms, two are recommended.
Installation
Mounting
All our monitors can be equipped with brackets for easy mounting on the ceiling or against walls.
An optional metal grille also protects the transducers.
Room acoustics & AVAA
The smartest way to improve your room acoustics
Don’t forget that the room is probably the second contributor to sound quality even in an immersive setup.
Low-frequency room modes are by far the most disturbing sound artefact coming from the room and our active bass traps AVAA C214 and AVAA C225 is the most effective solution to significantly reduce the long decay time inherent to room modes.
