16-Channel DSP Matrix Amplifier
AudioControl Director® M Series amplifiers are among the highest-powered, most flexible multi-zone amplifiers worldwide, designed exclusively for commercial and residential custom integrators. In the most demanding applications for all system amplification and IP programmable signal processing tasks, the Director® M Series Model M6800D has the power and flexibility to operate as a standalone DSP amplifier or partnered with 3rd party over-control systems from companies such as Control4, Crestron, RTI and Savant. Configure graphic and parametric equalization, crossover points, volume settings, zone grouping, network monitoring, and more using the onboard DSP.
The Director® M Series Model M6800D adds Dante input/output matrixing and system integration with additional M6800D and AudioControl CM series amplifiers. Using the Dante Controller, physical M6800D inputs become virtual sources that are available to other Dante devices with input/amplification capabilities. Dante Controller may be used to route Dante sources from any device, making them accessible from the input selection menu and/or an automation system.
16, 100-watt channels into 8 Ohms become 200 watts per channel with 4-Ohm loudspeaker loads. When two channels bridge outputs, that single channel produces 400 watts into 8 Ohms, more than enough power for even the most demanding loudspeaker configurations. Two digital input busses selectable between Coaxial and TOSLINK with Coaxial outputs may be matrixed, along with every analog zone input to any zone or all zone outputs. Built-in speaker profiles from AudioControl’s Sound Partners™ program members offer M Series DSP-optimized tonally balanced speaker calibrations from a growing list of prominent loudspeaker manufacturers.
Discover for yourself the countless critical ways in which AudioControl Director® M Series amplifiers, designed, engineered, and manufactured in Seattle, USA, contribute to successful commercial or residential systems.
