Dynamic Equalization with AVL™
DEVIALET DIONE also features AVL™ (Adaptative Volume Level), a unique dynamic equalizer that harmonizes sound levels in real-time depending on the content being played. This signal processing technology works by analyzing the signal upstream and making sure to homogenize the loudness of the multiple sounds that make up a movie scene such as dialogues, sound effects, and music, bringing key audible benefits such as:
— Smoother listening → avoiding movie scenes bouncing from too quiet to too loud
— Reinforcing clearness → fixing quiet or unintelligible dialog in an action scene
— Improved soundstage → better highlighting the different audio objects in the scene
With AVL™, DEVIALET DIONE offers a new way to enjoy and rediscover the magic of
cinema at home without missing a single detail.
Upmixing with SPACE™:
Embedded inside DEVIALET DIONE state-of-the-art signal processing stage, the Devialet SPACE™ technology leverages the full potential of the soundbar’s 17 speakers by upscaling any signal into a thrilling 5.1.2 multichannel content. SPACE™ upmixing algorithms are used through several listening modes to fine tune DEVIALET DIONE’S acoustic capabilities and enhance the viewing and listening experience.
— Movie Mode actively converts stereo content into a full-fledged multichannel
experience when connected via the HDMI and Optical inputs.
— Spatial Mode transforms stereo tracks into layered 3-dimensional sound when used
with any wireless audio source (AirPlay 2, Bluetooth, Spotify Connect, and UPnP) to place the listener center stage and enjoy music and other content at their best.
— Voice Mode boosts accuracy and intelligibility on programs like podcasts and news.
— Music Mode faithfully reproduces a stereo setup and disables all spatialization effects.
Movie is turned on by default on the HDMI/Optical input and Music Mode for every online source. Spatial and Voice Modes can be turned on at any time using the Devialet application.
Directional Audio with ADE
DEVIALET DIONE also features the Advanced Dimensional Experience (ADE) patented technology. This innovation was specifically designed for DEVIALET DIONE, it combines ingenious speaker placement detection and advanced digital filters to deliver superior multichannel audio restitution through the use of beamforming techniques.
Beamforming has been studied as a signal processing technology in diverse areas like wireless communication and seismology to enhance the broadcast of a signal in a specific direction and limit its contamination from other directions.
For multichannel audio broadcasting, Devialet ADE technology uses beamforming from a spatial point of view : DEVIALET DIONE relies on a dedicated speaker array to create a Spatio-temporal filter which effectively boosts the amplitude of sound waves coming from a specific angle (through constructive interference) and rejects sound waves from elsewhere (through destructive interference).
In effect, ADE allows DEVIALET DIONE to optimize the surround and elevation audio channels broadcast and reflection according to the position of the soundbar (either horizontal or mounted vertically on a wall).
For the listener, this maximizes the impact and immersion of multichannel content at all times, no matter the position of the soundbar, while delivering superior audio all around.
