The AMP2-E8 is the world’s first in-rack audio monitor capable of outputting and/or displaying encoded, multi-channel (up to 8 channels) audio from Dolby E®, or Dolby Digital® streams de-embedded from either HD-SDI or SD-SDI without prior Dolby encoding. Close cooperation with Dolby Laboratories ensured that the development of this latest Wohler product meets the highest standards of monitoring both Dolby E distribution and Dolby Digital emission coding systems. The ability to switch seam les sly between encoded or discretely embedded sources, in addition to providing full, simultaneous demuxed output of the multichannel source, offers a significant new operational capability in a single monitor unit. The AMP2-E8MDA features 3 audiophile-quality drivers, and 3 power amplifiers; 2 speakers and amplifiers reproduce midrange and high frequency information in stereo, while a third amp/driver combination handles summed LF information below the 500Hz crossover point. The sleek design provides optimally focused sound for operators in an ultra near field environment (1 to 3 ft.) and offers performance comparable to that of many separate monitor pairs without installation hassles and awkward speaker placements. This enables a higher SPL for the operator while reducing overall ambient sound and adjacent bay crosstalk. Extended HF response reveals potential problems with audio whine or hiss and electronic, rather than acoustic, cancellation of bass frequencies provides positive audible detection of reversed polarity audio feeds. Models are also available with integrated audio level meters. The AMP2-E8MDA is ideally suited to provide high quality, multi-channel, digital and analog audio monitoring in a compact unit. Ideal for use in VTR bays, mobile production vehicles, teleconferencing installations, multimedia systems, satellite links, cable TV facilities, and on-air radio studios
