AVAA C214

Digital active bass trap

The AVAA C214 eliminates unwanted bass resonance in the 15 Hz to 160 Hz frequency range.


What makes it unique is its ability to provide an absorption surface 45 times larger than its physical size, all without needing calibration or measurement.

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

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.

“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.”

Tom Martin

The Absolute Sound

“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.”
