AVAA C214
Digital active bass trap
The AVAA C214 effectively reduces excess bass resonances between 15 Hz and 160 Hz. Its standout feature is its large absorption surface area, which is 45 times greater than its actual size. It doesn’t require calibration or measurements to work efficiently.
Now also available in white.
Trust by leading reviewers
“Listening to a wide variety of music, with special emphasis on bass test tracks, I again felt the AVAAs C214 made an immediately noticeable difference. The more important point was that the difference was always an improvement. With the AVAAs, bass was better balanced and more natural. This naturalness shows up with bass sounding more open and detailed, with a more accurate sense of air and harmonic definition.”

“First of all, you will notice that the “veil” caused by the room-modes is gone. What is noticeable, however, is that it does not feel cold. The glow that the bass brings is just still there. The imaging and space that the bass brings – bass foundation is necessary for large imaging – is also just still there. In short: the AVAA does not take away qualities. It only removes a veil. A veil that shouldn’t be there.”
Jaap Veenstra

“Making low frequency mix decisions is often one of the most difficult aspects of music production, and quite often that’s down to the effect of room modes. The AVAA C214 is a technologically advanced, easy to use and brilliantly effective product that provides a neat solution to a genuine need, and in those terms it’s a triumph for PSI Audio.”

The Acoustic Black Hole
Do you know that your room is responsible of HALF of your sound?
Solid surfaces such as walls reflect low-frequency energy and cause disturbing resonances. These are called room modes.
Kill the room modes
2 AVAAs C214 significantly reduce room modes in a room.
No calibration needed
Simply place the AVAA C214 in a high-pressure area.
Remote Control
Remote Control
Thanks to our App (available for Apple and Android), you can easily activate/deactivate each AVAA C214 or AVAA C214 group. You can also adapt its area of effectiveness to suit its environment.
The effective solution against room modes
Based on the same absorption principles as the AVAA C20, the AVAA C214 is fully digital and allows control via an app.
Please note that it is NOT A PHASE CANCELLATION device.
Working from 15 Hz to 160 Hz
The AVAA is pressure based absorber.
Whether you have 1 or multiple disturbing room modes, the AVAA C214 will absorb all of these that are present in its location.
No calibration required
Simply place it where your room modes are and it will absorb them. No calibration required.
High efficiency
As effective as a perfect passive absorber up to 45 x its size.
Digital solution
Ultra low latency (less than 0.2 ms) processing via 2 independent DSPs.
Works in any type of room
The AVAA C214 can be used anywhere: recording/mixing/mastering studios, OB Vans, hifi listening rooms, machine rooms, etc.
Absorption only
Thanks to our technology, there is no signal emitted, only absorption.
Plug and Play
No calibration required. Simply place it where the room modes are.
Portable
Take it from your recording room to your mixing studio easily.
Optional mounting feet
The optional mounting feet allow you to easily install the AVAA C214 on a wall, ceiling or simply position it horizontally on the floor.
The assembly remains very compact.
Optional feet
mount it anywhere
Introduction to the new AVAA C214
In this video, Roger Roschnik, CEO of PSI Audio, explains the basics of the room modes and why we created the AVAA technology.
