Pioneer S-W1EX Portable Speaker User Manual


 
Not only has the latest technology that we have explained above been used in the design of the EX Series, but
the latest results of Pioneer’s unique research into audio sound reproduction are also being actively used. This
is the revolutionary “phase control” technology.
“Phase control” technology is the concept of managing the time and phase response of the speakers, amplifi ers
and software to realize the dramatic high-quality sound during multi-channel sound reproduction. The most advanced
concepts of phase control have been introduced to the EX Series. All the systems use the same CST and woofer drivers,
which along with the crossover allows for perfect matching of the phase characteristics of all the speakers. Additionally S-
W1EX subwoofer has a low pass fi lter (LPF) bypass function installed. In combination with the appropriate receiver, the phase
response of the complete multi-channel system can be optimized for uncompromising surround sound reproduction.
This “phase control” trademark is attached to products designed for phase characteristic matching recording to reproduction, based on the phase control
technology concept developed by the Pioneer Corporation.
