Dirac Live Active Room Treatment is Coming to Denon and Marantz Devices

Swedish digital audio company Dirac has announced that its Dirac Live Active Room Treatment (ART) solution will be made available in select Denon and Marantz devices that currently support Dirac Live Bass Control beginning in the second half of 2025.

Dirac Live Active Room Treatment (ART), introduced in 2023, is a professional-grade smart acoustics solution designed for discerning prosumers and dedicated audio enthusiasts. As a powerful enhancement to the Dirac Live platform, Dirac Live ART transforms a room’s existing speakers into a unified system that intelligently manages room resonances and improves bass clarity.

With its advanced technical capabilities, Dirac Live ART delivers a level of acoustic precision previously reserved for high-end studio environments, says the company, so serious users can unlock the full potential of their home audio systems.

“Dirac Live ART represents the next frontier in smart acoustics, delivering a level of acoustic precision that was once out of reach for most home audio systems,” says Fredric Tapper, Dirac’s Vice President and Head of Business Development. “By bringing Dirac Live ART to Denon and Marantz devices, we’re expanding access to our most advanced smart acoustic solution yet, empowering more users to transform their listening rooms into finely tuned sound environments, regardless of layout or speaker placement.”

Dirac Live ART solution represents an evolution in low-frequency control, using Dirac’s patented MIMO (Multiple-Input Multiple-Output) technology to coordinate all speakers in a system. Even in asymmetrical or unconventional setups, Dirac Live ART effectively manages room resonances in the critical 20 to 150 Hz range. This result, says Dirac, is a smoother, more consistent bass experience across all listening positions. This is achieved through precise phase alignment and intelligent control of the sound field, offering performance that would otherwise require extensive physical room treatment.
