Frequently Asked Questions
It employs a sophisticated noise-cancellation algorithm that actively filters out unwanted resonances and feedback frequencies, resulting in a cleaner, more focused amplified sound.
It's semi-directional, meaning it picks up sound best from directly in front of it; precise positioning within the soundhole is key to capturing the best tonal balance and minimizing unwanted reflections.
The Lyric is more streamlined and focused on a purer acoustic sound, whereas the Anthem offers more extensive EQ and effects – the Lyric prioritizes natural tone over extensive shaping.
