Phase Response and Time Alignment
An even larger benefit (tom the Amina technology) is in the phase response, in which the time/phase relationship between fundamentals and harmonics create the timbre, the voicing or signature of the instruments. From a planar surface there is only one point-in-time from which the sound originates, This means no multiple devices combining complex waveforms with harmonic shift causing a change of timbre and coloration, but only one point in time that produces all fundamentals and harmonic content at the same time. Hence the performance of the product is more true to the original sound source than any cone-driven device, providing a very realistic sonic performance.
Gain before feedback is much higher than conventional speakers as well, due to the absence of a concentrated beam of energy inherent to single point source drivers. For all these reasons, it is paramount that the sale of the product, the design of the system, as well as the actual installation are all done by trained individuals that understand the design principles and proper applications.
