PSI Audio AVAA C214 in white finish
PSI Audio announces the availability of the active bass trap AVAA C214 in white finish. The innovative Active Velocity Acoustic Absorber technology eliminates room modes from any room, making audio playback clearer, more transparent and more precise. With the AVAA C214, the technology has already found a more compact iteration, easy to integrate into any room. The elegant new white finish makes this integration even easier from a visual perspective, allowing the AVAA C214 to perfectly complement the interior design – while it makes the room modes vanish.

Yverdon-les-Bains, 25th September 2024 – The Active Velocity Acoustic Absorber, or AVAA for short, has turned the heads of acousticians and audiophiles ever since its introduction in 2016. In 2023, PSI Audio released the digital version AVAA C214, which is now also available in white to also visually suit listening rooms of all sorts.
Eliminating room modes in style
The AVAA principle, first realized in the all-analogue AVAA C20, is the result of years of research by PSI Audio, and it keeps perplexing everyone who witnesses it. Essentially, the AVAA acts like a hole in the wall, eliminating room modes between 15 and 160 Hz without requiring calibration or tuning to specific frequencies. These room modes can seriously compromise the listening environment – the active bass trap AVAA makes short work of them and acoustically cleans up the room significantly. It is up to 45 times more efficient than classic porous absorbers of the same size, and because it does not work with antisound, it works for the entire room instead of just a small sweet spot. Plus, if the room changes, for example due to a move of house, the mobile AVAA unit can just be taken to the new room and resume its work there.
Acoustic black hole, but white: AVAA C214
Introduced at HIGH END in Munich this year, the PSI Audio AVAA C214 in white is now available for purchase. It operates on the same principle as the C20, but realizes it with a DSP, which allows for more flexibility, even more efficiency and a smaller footprint. The aluminium housing of the C214 is cylinder-shaped and more compact than the C20, making it easier to install in different places apart from room corners. Optional mounting brackets can bring the device to pretty much any place in the room, wherever it makes the most sense in both function and room design. Now available an elegant black or a beautiful white finish, the PSI Audio AVAA C214 complements any room’s interior design.
