The AF1A-I is a permanent installation wide range loudspeaker system
offering both high fidelity and high efficiency. The Time-Aligned
studio quality sound provides detail and clarity not found in other
designs. Rugged birch plywood finished with black paint and a black
steel grille will fit nicely into almost any application. Optional
flying attachment points allow for safe and convenient rigging.
About Time-Align® Time-Align® assures that the fundamental
and overtones of a complex, transient, acoustical signal are presented
to the listener in the same relationship as the electrical signal at
the input terminals of the loudspeaker.
The conventional loudspeaker spreads out the sound in time: when a
rapid series of transients occur the results are blurring and lost
detail. With Time-Align®, a transient is presented as a tight
package of energy, with the same time relationships as the natural
sound. This means that a rapid series of transients will be heard
clearly.
True Time-Alignment® requires much more than just physically
lining
up the loudspeaker components. It requires consideration of the driver
placement, driver delay and adjustment of the crossover delay
parameters. This achieves the precise simultaneous acoustical arrival
time of each driver throughout the crossover region.
Along with state-of-the-art laboratory instruments, the proprietary
Time-Align® generator, built by Ron Wickersham, is used in
designing our loudspeaker systems. The Time-Align® generator is
founded upon different underlying mathematical principles than are used
in the more common Fourier based measurement equipment.
When comparing a genuine BAG END Time-Aligned® speaker<>
system to
any other, our additional design work is easy to hear and appreciate.
The dramatic clarity, realism, and overall pleasant<> sound of
our
Time-Aligned® loudspeakers is noted throughout the world.
