BNO Acoustics XV-16 Full Range

Describes a sound which covers all audible frequency ranges. As in "full range speaker cabinets."

kHz
An Abbreviation of kilo-Hertz.

BNO Acoustics SQ-9 Linearity
The extent to which any signal handling process is accomplished without amplitude distortion.

Cut-off Rate (Slope)
The number of dB that a filter reduces the signal for each octave its frequency past the filter's cut-off frequency (outside of the pass band).

BNO Acoustics R-10 Balls
1) The depth and thickness of a sound, usually on the bottom end of the EQ (as in "needs more balls"). 2) The strength of the voice on the mic (as in "check it like you have some balls").

Comb Filter
1) The frequency response achieved by mixing a direct signal with a delayed signal of equal strength especially at short delays.
2) Loosely used to also describe effects that can be achieved with comb filtering as part of the processing.

Compression Driver
The unit that feeds a sound pressure wave into the throat of a horn (in a horn loudspeaker).

Error Detection
The process of discovery that sonic information bits have been lost in digital audio.
