ROWEN Bi-Active technology

All the world is united on this point - active is better (than passive) but also elaborated! By the Active technology the sound quality can be significantly increased, as the dynamic disadvantages by passive crossovers do not apply, and the "pure" music reachs the different loudspeakers. The gain in intensity and the deep dimension picture gives the music a lot more expressiveness and concert-listening experiences.

With the ROWEN Bi-Active technology the low- and mid/high-frequencies are threaded directly by separate amplifiers. The external Bi-Active crossover delivers the correct frequency-spectrums to each amplifier.

The Bi-Active operation is possible with following loudspeakers:
ROWEN S4, S6, S8, S10, S12, P10, 2&2e, 2&2, 1&1e, 1&1, RS2

Two amplifier-channels and a Bi-Active crossover is needed per loudspeaker. A elegant solution are the Bi-Active socle amplifiers SOCLE BI (S8, S10) or SA2bi (S4, S6). Or with the external Bi-Active crossovers (XO1 or XO2 per loudspeaker or XO4 for Stereo) and a combination of ROWEN power amplifiers (2 channels per loudspeaker).
