For more than 20 years, KS has created world class sound transmission devices and has always
followed one aim; the reproduction of genuine and lifelike sound. KS products can be found in the
inventory of the most illustrious operas such as the Semper Oper Dresden, Alte Oper in Frankfurt,
Schauspiel Frankfurt, Kammerspiele Munich even in the parliament building in Berlin, the Reichstag
etc. They can be found in the sound studios of top artists and producers such as Stevie Wonder,
Herbert Grönemeyer, Xavier Naidoo / M. Herberger and many more. Naturally our products can
also be found in many radio stations, for example SWR, SR, Hitradio FFH and others in Germany
and abroad as well as many well known mastering studios. The guiding principles for the design of
KS DIGITAL products, was the ideal of sound neutrality and this has made them incorruptible
tools in judging acoustic reproductions and a pleasure to enjoy the results of those design efforts.
Many innovative approaches and patented processes have been developed by KSdigital in order
to get as near to the original as possible. We have developed the FIRTEC™ technology, a digital
phase correction filter, for the “system” studio loudspeaker (cabinet, mechanical and electrical
components), we have achieved a directional bass radiation with our dipole bass, with DMC™ we
have built a linear phase and time-aligned conus loudspeaker and with NEXT™, we have introduced
new technology that especially in the area of mastering, it brings the ear closer to the sound and
revolutionizes sound emission. In view of this we have to congratulate you on your excellent
choice of reference monitor from KS digital and wish you plenty of fun with the speaker.
TOTAL COMMITMENT TO DEVELOPMENT
During development of the Line-Master, we have consistently paid attention to the time aligned
emmission of audio signals. To achieve our goals we have searched for uncompromising solutions
for all areas involved in sound reproduction.
- in the active electronics:
The 300W output stages for each of the mid and high frequency ranges provide ample reserves
and the 500W for the regulated bass means the speaker is excellently equipped. Separate power
supplies for bass and mid/high ranges ensure that there is a clear separation of power and avoids
any bottlenecks.
- within the signal processing, filter and equalization areas:
A digital signal processor (DSP) includes a model of the physical characteristics of the speaker and
calculates 44 times in every millisecond the correct equalization of the complete speaker unit. This
means, that in the mid/high range area, an exact pre-control is possible without any control loop
errors and dead time. A floating point processor with a dynamic range for the calculation of
1500dB ensures highest accuracy and a higher than “analogue” resolution.
