Anna carries EAW's Adaptive Performance approach into a smaller module than Anya. Rather than treating each enclosure as one processing channel, Resolution 2 shapes the total array response through independent control of its drivers.

Why it mattered

  1. 01

    Extends adaptive coverage beyond the largest Anya module.

  2. 02

    Shows how the underlying shift is toward control at transducer level, rather than simply adding more conventional enclosures.

Engineering record

14 transducers and signal paths
Two 10-inch LF cones, four 5-inch MF cones and eight 1-inch-exit HF compression drivers are driven by 14 channels of DSP and amplification.[1]
Adaptive Performance
Resolution 2 shapes an asymmetrical output profile for the defined audience area; driver spacing, array size and acoustic limits remain part of the design.[1]
