Wohler AMP1-S8DA 8-Channel, Multi-Format, Analog/Digital Audio Monitors










- Stock: 4
- Code: BS18183
- Model: AMP1-S8DA
The AMP1-S8DA monitor is an exceptionally high-quality audio
monitor system offering premium quality 8-channel analog and AES/EBUI
multichannel audio monitoring and conversion as well as professional level
metering. These units contain 4 audiophile-quality drivers and three power
amplifiers; 2 speakers and amplifiers reproduce midrange and high frequency
information in stereo, while a third amp and 2 speakers handle summed LF the information below the 500 Hz crossover point.
These Wohler AMP1-S8DA 8-Channel units feature eight 26-segment high-resolution,
tri-color LED level meters showing simultaneous VU and PPM for superior level metering. The front panel features an innovative LCD display of
phase/polarity relationships. Output limiter circuits are incorporated to
protect the speakers, and extensive magnetic shielding allows placement
immediately adjacent to video monitors with no color impurities.
The unique design provides optimally focused sound for
operators in an ultra near-field (1 to 3 ft.) working environment and offers
performance comparable to that of many separate monitor pairs, without the
installation hassles, awkward speaker placements, and “added-on” look. This
provides for 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 out-of-phase (reversed
polarity) audio feeds. A headphone jack is provided on the front panel that
automatically mutes the speakers.
These units are ideally suited for use in space-critical
environments such as TV facilities, studios, VTR bays, mobile production
vehicles, satellite links and indeed, any rack-mount environment where
multi-channel audio monitoring is required.
