Analogue active bass trap known for its revolutionary impact on room acoustics. It sets itself apart with its easy setup and mobility, requiring no calibration while delivering efficiency comparable to passive absorbers 25 times its size. Operating within the range of 15 Hz to 150 Hz, it effectively reduces resonance time of all room modes by up to 50%. Whether dealing with one or multiple problematic frequencies, the AVAA C20 absorbs all undesired room modes. Launched in 2016, it has gained a reputation as the secret weapon of acoustic treatments and has advanced further in 2023 with the digital AVAA C214. Handmade in Switzerland with meticulous attention to detail, this bass trap stands out in precision and performance compared to mass-produced alternatives.

"“There’s nothing else on the planet that comes close to the performance! It’s amazing the precision, beauty, tightness and control of the bass in my mastering room, thanks to PSI Audio.”"
