This new interface allows sound system designers the ability to carry out their loudspeaker system design (using AXYS loudspeaker products) in DDA; within the DDA environment the critical 'beam steering' parameters of Intellivox and Target arrays can be set and modelled, using statistical methods. Once they are satisfied with the performance of the system the loudspeaker data can then be easily exported to XML format so that it can be imported into Odeon. Further modelling work can be carried out using the ray tracing method. In addition to this export functionality DDA users can also import the room geometry from Odeon into DDA models using the .CAD export function in Odeon.

The NOMOS XLC combines clean reproduction of low range sounds with "the appropriate punch". The bass reproduction of a large range is well-balanced, rapid and precise and thus represents a new generation of subwoofers. From its acoustical and mechanical conception, the K&F NOMOS XLC has been designed as resonance-free and with a minimum group delay time.

The cardioid application permits efficient easy working, due to the reduced disturbance sound and due to the directed bass shares of the front speakers.
