Daniel J SaitAudioControl has announced that its Director Model M6800 multi-zone amplifier is available with Dante digital audio networking capability.
“Last year, we successfully introduced Dante network connectivity as an option on our CM-Series 70-volt Dual Mode amplifiers, providing integrators with a new level of performance for landscape entertainment systems and beyond,” explains Chris Kane, Vice President Of Sales & Marketing at AudioControl. “We are excited to add this amazing technology to the award-winning Director Model M6800, one of our most popular multi-zone amplifiers.”
The Director Model M6800 outputs 100 watts/8-Ohms, 200 watts/4-Ohms per channel into 16-channels. The Model M6800 also features a powerful DSP engine that includes graphic and parametric equalisation by zone, plus a switching matrix that delivers high quality entertainment programming to any zone.
With the Director Model M6800 amplifier, integrators can tailor the sound to each zone based on DSP profiles of leading speaker brands included as part of AudioControl’s Sound Partners Program, and then fine-tune the sound based on the acoustic properties of any space.
The AudioControl Director Model M6800 can be used as a standalone solution or as part of a complete smart home environment with drivers available for popular 3rd party control systems including Crestron, Savant, RTI and Control 4.
Crucially, AudioControl has provided integrators with 16-channels of premium performance from a 2U chassis, conserving critical rack space without compromising sound quality.
The AudioControl Director Model M6800 will become available Q3, 2023 and comes with a five-year warranty.
