Description

The PSI Audio AVAA C214 is a compact and highly effective active bass trap designed to resolve low-frequency acoustic issues in professional and critical listening environments. It targets standing waves between 15 and 160 Hz, an area where traditional passive treatments are often inefficient or impractical. By absorbing excess energy in this range, the AVAA C214 helps create a more accurate and controlled sound field without introducing any additional noise or coloration.

Built for both flexibility and performance, the AVAA C214 can operate in two distinct modes. In Standalone Mode, it functions independently once powered on, with simple manual controls. In Remote Mode, it connects to a wireless network and can be controlled via a mobile app. This allows for gain adjustments, firmware updates, and group control of multiple units from a single device. The compact cylindrical design allows placement in room corners or pressure zones, where its effect is most noticeable. For precise environments such as studios, mastering rooms, or dedicated listening spaces, the AVAA C214 provides a practical solution for controlling low-end resonance using minimal space.

Features

Active Bass Absorption

Reduces low-frequency room modes between 15 and 160 Hz for clearer, tighter bass.

Standalone and Remote Modes

Works on its own or can be controlled remotely using a smartphone app.

Smartphone App Control

Lets you turn the device on/off, adjust gain, and update firmware from your phone.

Automatic Limiter Protection

Protects the system from overload by limiting absorption when sound levels are too high.

Compact but Powerful

Acts like a large absorber many times its size while remaining small and easy to place.

Silent Operation

Does not emit sound or anti-sound—only absorbs bass energy.

Gain Adjustment

Manual or remote control gain settings let you fine-tune performance for your room.

Flexible Placement

Works best in room corners or near walls and includes optional mounting feet for horizontal or vertical use.

Visual Feedback with LEDs

Colored LEDs indicate operating mode, warnings, Wi-Fi status, and errors.

Wi-Fi Connectivity

Connects to a 2.4 GHz network to enable remote features and firmware updates.
