Take the room out of the equation

State-of-the-art Dirac Live Room Correction technology unlocks your loudspeakers’ full potential, improving audio performance across the full frequency band without additional upgrades.

Dirac Live automatically calibrates sound in your room using either your smartphone and the included wired mic or virtually wireless with the Dirac Live PC or MacOS* application and a 3rd party USB mic (not included).

Now, you’ll get a more accurate measurement of your surround sound system’s positioning to be more precise and balanced, providing a better result with the increased upper limit of delay time from 20 to 50 milliseconds.
