SPL (Sound Performance Lab) Audio (+ News & Reviews) - At Musicraft (Derby)

[Musicraft]

Musicraft is pleased to announce that we now also support SPL (Sound Performance Lab) Audio.

All SPL Audio products are manufactured in their own production facility in Niederkrüchten on the Lower Rhine, Germany.

Since 1983 we have been developing audio gear for music, film, multimedia, hi-fi and broadcasting.

Experimenting and listening is more important to us than designing by the book.

We create innovative audio products by pushing the envelope of both technology and design in search for the unique performance that sets SPL products apart from the main stream.

Milestones of development

• the invention of the patented Vitalizer® sound optimization
• the invention of level-independent envelope processing, which is used in the Transient Designer products
• the development of the auto-dynamic de-esser with S-sound reduction by means of phase cancellation
• the first discrete 5.1 surround microphone system Atmos 5.1
• the development of the Car Vitalizer® App for iOs devices
• the development of the 120V operational amplifier
• the invention of the Phonitor Matrix for loudspeaker-equivalent listening and mixing via headphones

Mad Audio interviews SPL Audio’s MD Hermann Gier about VOLTAiR Technology and SPL Audio at High End 2022 -

VOLTAiR is that good​

In the lab, we pitted Phonitor xe against the best audio measurement system and found that Audio Precision could not measure VOLTAiR technology -

SPL Audio has been developing professional audio technology for over 35 years. Sound studios all over the world rely on the outstanding sound quality. Mastering studios demand the highest standards in terms of audio performance, because they put the finishing touches to music productions – with the proprietary SPL 120V technology.

In our Professional Fidelity series, we refer to this unsurpassed technology as VOLTAiR technology. Experience music on the same level as the mastering sound engineer.

Infinite dynamic range.

Sense for spatiality.

Detail-rich, vivid, honest and plain simply beautiful.

This is SPL VOLTAiR technology.

VOLTAiR is a composition of the terms Volt and Air.

Volt is the unit for electrical voltage and Air stands for the unlimited space the music can breathe in.

VOLTAiR symbolizes the perceived limitless dynamics resulting from high audio voltage.

What exactly is that?

And what does it do?

Good questions need good answers.

And that’s what the 120V technology (VOLTAiR) video gives you -

Comparison​

Most audio devices work with an internal operating voltage of +/-15 volts and can thus process a maximum input level of +21.5 dBu. If a DAC, for example, has an output level of +22 dBu at 0 dBFS, level peaks of the music material would already cause overloads in the input stage of the device.

Interview with SPL Audio MD Hermann Gier about VOLTAiR Technology and SPL Audio at High End 2022

All components in the audio device often operate at their limits. The result is an unsteady sound that causes stress and faster ear fatigue.
SPL devices with VOLTAiR technology can handle input levels of +32.5 dBu thanks to the higher internal operating voltage of +/- 60 volts – thus offering 12dB more headroom. All components consequently operate continuously in the optimum operating range. The result is a very pleasant, natural and relaxed sound experience. So you can enjoy your music in every detail.

These diagrams clearly show the superiority of the VOLTAiR technology in comparison to other circuits with lower, common operating voltages.
