The DM-NAX-AMP-X300 is a high performance, space saving,
energy efficient, professional grade Audio-over-IP(AoIP)
amplifier. Supporting DMNAX, Dante, AES67, and local
inputs, all with full DSPcapabilities, this multichannel
amplifier is suitable for both residential and commercial
configurations.
Audio-over-IP
DM NAX takes audio distribution to a whole new level by
putting it on the network. The DM-NAX-AMP-X300 sends and
receives DMNAX, Dante, and AES67 encoded audio over a
standard IPnetwork. A single DMNAX system can handle
audio distribution between 32 DMNAX devices and supports
up to 256 audio output zones. DMNAXdevices can seamlessly
pull and distribute the audio from DM NVX sources.
Digital Signal Processing (DSP)
The DM-NAX-AMP-X300 has two DSP modes. Residential
mode enables the quick and easy configuration of layout,
speaker protection output limits, and speaker profiles for each
zone. In Commercial mode, make full use of the
DM-NAX-AMP-X300's true mixing matrix as well as advanced
options for equalization and dynamics processing on each
individual speaker, line, and network channel.
Encoder and Decoder Functionality
The DM-NAX-AMP-X300 can operate as a network AV
encoder and decoder. The local input sources on one amplifier
can be sent as AoIP streams to DM NAX, Dante, or AES67
capable devices. Simultaneously, the DM-NAX-AMP-X300 can
receive AoIP streams from these same devices and decode
them for local output.
Lo-Z (4/8 Ω) and Hi-Z (70V or 100V) Output
The DM-NAX-AMP-X300 is a 4-channel amplifier (up to 75 W
per channel) which can also be configured for 3-channel
bridged operation (up to 75 W per single ended channel and
up to 150 W for the bridged channel), 2-channel bridged
operation (up to 150 W per channel), or 1 channel bridged
operation (up to 300 W). A choice of Lo-Z outputs to drive 4-
or 8-Ω speakers, or Hi-Z outputs to drive a distributed speaker
system (70V or 100V) can be used. Balanced/Unbalanced
inputs are provided for connection to two stereo or four mono
sources through detachable terminal blocks.
ENERGY STAR® Certified
An energy-efficient design enables the DM-NAX-AMP-X300
to meet demanding ENERGY STAR requirements. In addition
to its high efficiency under operation, the amplifier draws no
added inrush current during power-up, thereby reducing AC
circuit requirements and allowing multiple amplifiers to be
connected to a single switched circuit. To reduce energy usage
further, the DM-NAX-AMP-X300 can be configured to enter a
low-power standby state if no input signal is detected on
either channel for 25 minutes. Signal detection sensitivity has
been optimized to improve response time when triggering the
amplifier to the on state, allowing it to return to full operation
within a half-second. The REMOTE input can be connected to
a contact closure to place the amplifier outputs in controlled
standby mode.
Modular Design
The DM-NAX-AMP-X300 is housed in a half-width
rack-mountable form factor that can be installed individually
or ganged together in a single rack space. The amplifier is
high-density stackable with other Crestron modular amps,
allowing multiple units to be installed vertically in an
equipment rack without needing extra ventilation space. Rack
and surface mount parts are included, so no additional
mounting accessories or rack shelves are required.
Whether mounting in a rack, attaching to a flat surface, or
placing on a shelf, it is easy to combine two amplifiers into a
single, full rack-width assembly.
