Cardioid Subwoofer Arrays: Directing Bass Forward & Eliminating Stage Bleed

1. Why Standard Subwoofers Spill Omnidirectionally

Subwoofers radiate low frequencies in a 360-degree circle, creating muddy bass rumble on stage that muddy vocal microphones!

2. The Physical Inverted Cardioid Array

Reversing one subwoofer cabinet backward toward the stage and applying specific DSP millisecond delay cancels low end on stage while boosting bass 3dB forward into the audience!
