System Overview
South of Market Audio Dock: The Audyssey South of Market
Audio Dock is a high fidelity speaker system for your Apple iPod/iPhone,

for hands-free conversation. In addition, the Audio Dock is fitted with a 3.5mm
auxiliary input for connection of almost any external audio device. For added
convenience, the South of Market Audio Dock includes an IR remote control.

Audyssey Smart Speaker Technology: The South of Market Audio
Dock employs Audyssey Smart Speaker Technology for distortion-free, powerful,
and precise sound. Audyssey Smart Speaker Technology even maintains balanced
sound at low volumes.
Audyssey BassXT: The South of Market Audio Dock has a proprietary
technology called Audyssey BassXT, which extends the bass response of small
speakers to reproduce the lowest frequencies. The result is deeper bass.
2-Way Speaker Design: The South of Market Audio Dock contains two 4"
long-throw side-firing woofers and two 0.75" silk-dome angled tweeters
inside an acoustic suspension (sealed) enclosure for deep
bass, warm mids, and clear highs. Auydssey carefully calibrated the drivers'
placement and voicing so that frequency and phase relationships remain intact
and sound waves emanate outward to create a stereo image. The width of the sound
field may vary due to reflections off of nearby surfaces depending on where
you've placed the Audio Dock relative to other objects in the room (and the
physical dimensions and construction of the room).
Class-D Bi-Amplification: Four separate Class-D amplifiers with active crossovers
power the dock's two-way speaker system for greater dynamics, improved
performance, and uncompromised sound quality.
iPhone App: Download the free
South of Market iPhone App
onto your iPod or iPhone to create personalized EQ curves and tailor
the music to your taste. Designed specifically for the South of Market Audio
Dock and iPhone or iPod Touch, the South of Market App gives you the ability to
customize your sound. The app features Fast Slope Tone Controls, a new way of
adjusting bass and treble using Audyssey Tilt Control, and a selection of
Audyssey's Dynamic Volume presets, including background listening.
- Audyssey Dynamic Volume: Automatically controls the level you hear so no content gets too loud or too
soft. For movies, audio books and vocals it makes voices more clear and
understandable. For music listening, it maintains consistent levels, eliminating
the need for continual volume adjustments.
- Audyssey Tilt: A convenient single control that allows you to solve tonal anomalies in
recordings by "tilting" the balance to more highs or more lows. Audyssey
developed this new technology and it makes its debut in the Audio Dock.
- Audyssey Fast Slope Tone: Allows you to adjust treble and bass using a newly developed method that
minimizes interactions to give you better control over just the bass or just the
treble.
- Custom EQ: Create EQ curves to control the levels of specific frequency ranges. Name them for storage
and easy recall.
- Background Listening Mode: You can even turn on the "Background Listening" mode for perfect dinner
conversation music.
Note: The South of Market iPhone App is compatible with iPod touch
and iPhone running iOS 3.1.3 or later.
