Introduction
1.1
Foreword
Conventionally in high end audio, people “mix and match” devices. They
may use a DAC, an analog pre-amplifier, a phono stage, an equalizer, and
a processor.
Illusonic Audio Processors integrate these functionalities - because they be-
long together from a quality, technical, and usage perspective. The number
of signal transmissions and conversions (AD, DA, digital clock sync) are
minimized.
IAP 4 has four output channels (“Stereo + 2”), providing flexibility and in-
novation beyond stereo. A stereo system may be amended by a subwoofer,
center channel, surround channels, or even height channels. To make most
of such additional channels, corresponding world-class signal processing is
built into IAP 4.
Additionally, IAP 4 can calibrate each of its output channels with gain, delay,
and parametric equalizers, to adapt to the room and loudspeaker positions.
Depth/Immersion adds a new dimension to room adaptation, controlling spa-
ciousness. The following pages give a more detailed overview over IAP 4’s
features.
I hope you’ll enjoy countless hours of quality listening and entertainment!
Yours truly,
Christof Faller
