KLIPPEL CONTROLLED SOUND (KCS)

Nonlinear Adaptive Loudspeaker Control

More sound pressure output
Active protection against overload
Cancellation of nonlinear distortion
Desired linear target performance
Copes with aging, climate, production variance
Lowers cost, weight and size
Enables previously impossible designs

Loudspeakers are highly nonlinear and time-variant systems. Signal distortion, operational instability, heating, aging, manufacturing imperfections, risk of failure, climate and other external influences have always limited the maximum output and quality of reproduced sound.

The KCS algorithm is a new paradigm that tackles all these obstacles at once, actively improving loudspeakers at their weakest points. Its unique adaptive feed-forward nonlinear control system provides linear, protected, and stabilized performance up to the highest input levels over the entire operating range and lifetime. The result is more SPL and bass performance, better sound quality, increased longevity and consistency.

Product Design with KCS

Stand out from the crowd with new, lean product designs that are slimmer, more performant and efficient than your competition. The KCS features can take over important parts of the passive speaker design, which gives you new freedoms to design speakers differently. The more consciously you design the entire audio system with the capabilities of KCS in mind, the bigger your gains will be. Hence, your total system performance can be improved on two levels:
