MaxxBass Overview
MaxxBass System Overview
MaxxBass can be utilized in almost any sound system to improve bass performance. The MaxxBass unit should be placed
between either the mixer (for stereo) or low frequency crossover (for subwoofers) and the audio amplifier as shown in Figure
1.

MaxxBass 101 supports stereo analog inputs and outputs with terminal blocks (with +4dBU sensitivity), XLR and TRS con-
nections. MaxxBass 102 supports stereo analog inputs and outputs with RCA connectors (with –10dBU sensitivity). The sys-
tem is supplied with an external 16V AC power supply.

Figure 1. Audio System Using MaxxBass
Both the MaxxBass 101 and MaxxBass 102 have only a few simple controls and indicators on their front panel. Set the input
level and Frequency controls to fit your specific speaker system and then gradually turn up the Intensity control to achieve the
desired balance of generated low frequencies.

MaxxBass Technology
Waves patented MaxxBass® psycho-acoustic bass extension technology is a unique solution to common bass frequency limita-
tions due to cost, size and power consumption. Inserting a MaxxBass unit into the audio system will result in better bass with-
out exceeding speaker driver excursion limits, changing speakers or amplifiers, and without increased power consumption.

Previously, to improve bass response required upgrading speakers, amplifiers and resetting equalizers. MaxxBass breaks
through the bass reproduction barrier by delivering deeper, richer bass without changing amplifiers and speakers in both new
and existing sound applications including:

• Retail Stores
• House of Worship
• Clubs
• Sound reinforcement
• DJ/Bands
MaxxBass extends the perceived bass response of a speaker by up to one and a half octaves below the speaker’s cutoff. This is
achieved by utilizing the psycho-acoustic effect of the missing fundamental. MaxxBass process generates higher harmonics
from the low fundamental frequencies below the (set) MaxxBass Frequency, and adds them back into the signal. Additionally,
MaxxBass process removes energy below the (set) MaxxBass Frequency from the input signal, thus reducing peak power and
speaker excursions requirements.
