About the BACCH-SP adio
The BACCH-SP adio is a high-definition digital audio processor developed by Theoretica Applied Physics, incorporating BACCH® 3D Sound technology from Princeton University. It removes crosstalk in stereo loudspeaker playback to restore accurate 3D spatial cues, delivering a strikingly realistic 3D sound experience. The adio model includes widely used analog and digital inputs and outputs, a high-performance DAC and ADC, and a three-level preamplifier, all housed in a compact, hand-polished aluminum chassis. It supports individualized crosstalk cancellation filters derived from binaural microphone calibration, real-time 3D audio sweet spot adjustment via sub-millimeter head tracking using a 3D infrared camera, and 64-bit audio processing with custom algorithms. Control is via a dedicated iPad remote, and the unit supports remote technical support and software upgrades over the internet. The BACCH-SP adio is designed for audiophiles seeking a virtual reality sound experience from stereo loudspeakers.
