Will the monitors work better in vertical or horizontal position?
MARTIN Christian2017-12-19T22:37:30+01:00We are more sensitive to directivity on the horizontal plane that on the vertical plane. Also dispersion is wider left-right of the monitor than top-bottom. Therefore in theory it is best to have the drivers of a loudspeaker in vertical position as the sweet spot will be larger. In practice many users position their monitors [...]
Do PSI Audio products work in all countries? How do I know which fuses I need?
MARTIN Christian2017-12-19T22:38:41+01:00Yes PSI Audio products will work in all countries. It is important however that the voltage is set to match the voltage of the mains (i.e. 230 V or 115 V). This is normally done by the importer who will make sure the products are set up for the local network. The procedure is explained [...]
When I unpack a new speaker, what is the running-in time until it properly works?
MARTIN Christian2017-12-19T22:39:26+01:00The components we use don’t vary over time and the settling time is of a few seconds only. So in normal use conditions the burn-in is not necessary.
What is the difference between A17-M & A21-M with round woofers compared to the ones with squared woofers?
MARTIN Christian2017-12-03T11:09:47+01:00Our monitors are all calibrated to be as accurate as possible. In 2015 we upgraded the woofer baskets on the A21-M and A17-M to a cast aluminum basket for solidity reason. The basket is stringer but there is no difference to the driver itself nor to the sound.
There are thousands of loudspeaker manufacturers. Why is PSI Audio different from the rest?
MARTIN Christian2017-12-03T11:11:19+01:00First of all our approach is scientific and defines the role of a loudspeaker as being to transform and electric signal into an acoustic signal as accurately as possible. The loudspeaker manufacture should not make the sound and should respect the artist and sound engineer’s or designer’s work. A loudspeaker should be able to reproduce [...]

Can you guarantee that AVAA technology will work in my room?
MARTIN Christian2017-12-03T11:19:55+01:00The AVAA will work in all rooms and do its job in all rooms. However the effect will be dramatic on room modes below 150 Hz and when positioned in the high pressure areas of the room modes (typically in most rigid corners). If you have long ringing and disturbing room modes the AVAA will [...]
Where to place the AVAAs in my room?
MARTIN Christian2017-11-22T22:47:11+01:00The most effective position for the AVAA is in a location where the walls contribute most to the room modes that are disturbing in the listening position. In practice it is very easy to position the AVAA effectively after a few comparative trials. The starting position is in corners behind the source speakers as this [...]
How many AVAAs do I need?
MARTIN Christian2017-11-22T22:46:31+01:002 AVAA will have a significant effect in most rooms. Depending on the dimension and type of room as well as the result required, between 2 and 4 AVAAs are necessary for most normal size rooms (20 and 80 m2) For very small rooms a minimum of two AVAAs is still recommended to have a [...]
