More sound to your amps and speakers
The secret to making speakers sound great lies with the crossover you use. With the dbx® 223xs Crossover you\'ll get great performance, ultra low-noise, rugged reliability and four decades of dbx knowledge and expertise in building the world\'s finest processors. The 223xs uses precision filters to separate the audio signal and direct the correct frequencies to your loudspeaker drivers. By directing only the specific frequency bands to each speaker driver the 223xs leaves your amplifiers free to use their full power on the usable signal eliminating distortion and giving your PA system a cleaner and better sound.
The dbx 223xs is a dual channel crossover with all the features you would expect from a professional product. It features Linkwitz-Riley 24dB per octave filters, independent output gain controls for level matching, output phase inversion, 40 Hz low cut filter, and optional mono summing of the low frequency (subwoofer) output. Everything in the design exudes great precision from the solid "click" controls to the high quality XLR inputs and outputs

With 12 inputs and 6 outputs and Ethernet control the dbx ZonePro? 1260 and 1261
are the newest members of the ZonePro? family providing a complete suite of signal
processing and control for Commercial Audio applications.
Designed to offer superior system sonic performance and flexibility, the 1260/1261 deliver
the highest quality tools available. Even the input and outputs connectors were chosen for
their standard usage and reliability. The ZonePro products offer Euroblock connectors for
balanced signals and RCA connectors for interfacing with consumer equipment often used
in commercial applications; there is also a simple analog input buss that allows inputs to be
sent from one unit to the next for unit and job scalability. The 1260 and 1261 provide every
necessary processing tool, from the input processing like gain control and EQ available on all
inputs to highly sophisticated and specific functions such as selectable paging microphone
processing including Gating, De-Essing, Auto Gain Control, Compression and Feedback
Suppression. The heart of the ZonePro products is the Routing module that provides of course
Primary Source Selection but also Source Ducking for Paging and Priority Override. The outputs
also offer a wealth of processing designed for commercial applications like our patent-pending
AutoWarmth? function that was co-developed with JBL to provide natural low frequency extension
at any signal level. Each output also offers EQ, Bandpass and Crossover filters, Limiting and Delay
for system optimization. With the ZonePro? every tool is at your disposal to maximize the response
of your system.
Beyond processing, the ZonePro? products offer multiple forms of control to further extend the
versatility of your system. From easy-to-use wall panel Zone Controllers for standard end-user
functions like source select and volume control to advanced system control including a built-in
Real Time Clock that can provide programmable system changes throughout the day or week.
For system setup and monitoring the ZonePro Designer software provides an intuitive interface
and a speedy setup Wizard for configuring and editing all system parameters. The addition of
Ethernet control means that not only will it work with standard network equipment, but it can also
be accessed from remote dialup locations or from wireless access points.
The ZonePro? 1260 and 1261 will take your Commercial Audio system to the next level with advanced
processing, versatility and control.

With the DSP 260 digital 2-in-6 sound system manager, DYNACORD is continuing its proud tradition in the fi eld of innovative digital signal processors. Based on the most modern hardware, this system manager offers tried-and-tested as well as new algorithms for the simple and swift construction of active multi-way systems. As much importance has been attached here by the developers to high user-friendliness as to the realization of an extremely favorable price. 24-bit sigma-delta AD/DA converters and a 32-bit floating-point signal processor make possible a dynamic range of 111 dB. In addition to the two analog inputs, a digital stereo input in AES/EBU format is available. A -6 dB pad switch in front of the AD converters offers additional security against overload when the device is connected to mixing desks with very high output levels. The 6 individually mutable outputs are electronically balanced and available on XLR sockets. For all inputs and outputs, easily read LED level meters are provided on the front panel. Users can choose whether to configure their own systems at the device itself using the controls and display provided or else by means of the intuitive editing software. 3-way stereo, 2-way stereo + FR, 4-way mono + FR etc. Furthermore, factory presets compatible with those of the tried-and-tested DSP-244 are available for Dynacord loudspeaker systems. In terms of DSP, the device offers parametric and graphic EQs as well as a delay function in the input and crossover, channel EQ, channel delay and a level control with limiter in each output channel. An RS-232 interface allows Master/Slave operation of multiple devices as well as GPI switching of settings. A PC (the editing software runs under Windows) can be connected via the USB interface on the front panel. A variable parameter lockout function allows you to determine which settings and parameters can be accessed directly at the device. This is just one of many features that make the DSP 260 an ideal choice also for the rental business. The wealth of features combined with its outstanding audio performance and favorable price commend this audio system manager for a multitude of professional applications.
