Bryston Sub Tower – Taking Bass Testing to New Heights
Behind the Scenes at BRYSTON. Even bass testing gets taken to new heights. Our design team uses a 90-foot outdoor tower to measure subwoofers. Since ultra-low frequencies have wavelengths too long for even our large factory anechoic chamber to capture accurately.
TAKING BASS TESTING TO NEW HEIGHTS By hoisting prototypes into the open air, we can measure bass response without reflections or interference. It’s a unique part of our research process that helps us understand exactly how those deep notes behave in the real world.
