The Soundweb London BLU-800 offers configurable I/O, configurable signal processing, CobraNet audio and a high bandwidth, fault tolerant digital audio bus.

The BLU-800 has open architecture which is fully configurable through HiQnet™ London Architect. A rich palette of processing and logic objects and a “drag and drop” method of configuration provide a simple and familiar design environment.

This processor features CobraNet audio with primary and secondary ports for fault tolerance. Control is through a separate Ethernet port which allows CobraNet and control networks to be easily separated or mixed depending upon requirements.

The BLU-800 also features a low latency, fault tolerant digital audio bus of 256 channels which uses standard Category 5e cabling giving a distance of 100m between compatible devices. Fiber optic media converters can be used to increase the distance between devices to over 40km.

Four card slots which accommodate analog inputs, analog outputs, digital inputs and digital outputs in banks of four facilitate many different device I/O configurations.

Analog Input Cards provide software configurable gain in 6dB steps up to +48dB per channel and software selectable Phantom Power per channel. Digital Input Cards and Digital Output Cards process AES/EBU and/or S/PDIF audio and offer a variety of clocking and syncing options. (Further information about the I/O cards can be found on dedicated datasheets)

Phantom Power, Sync, Signal Present and Clip information per channel is easily accessible, without the requirement for a PC, from clear front panel LED indication. Device-specific information such as Device Name, Device Type, Firmware Version Number, Time, IP Address and Subnet Mask is available from the front panel display. A bi-directional locate function allows devices to be identified both from and within HiQnet London Architect.

12 Control Inputs and Logic Outputs allow the BLU-800 to be integrated with GPIO compatible devices. The Soundweb London Interface Kit, comprehensive documentation which details how Soundweb London systems can be integrated with third party control systems, is included within the installation of HiQnet London Architect.

The BLU-800 and the other members of the Soundweb London family provide the building blocks of the perfectly tailored system solution.

The ARX EC-2 is a flexible yet affordable 24 dB per octave Phase Correct active crossovers.
It has 2 modes of operation; as either Stereo 2 way or a Mono 3 way units, with a switch on
the back panel selecting either mode.

Features
Ultra low noise circuitry
Totally phase aligned at crossover point
Switchable Dual Channel 2 way or Single Channel 3 way
Unique 'semi-fixed' crossover point
24dB per octave (Fourth Order) Linkwitz-Riley filters
Separate Summed Mono Output
Balanced Inputs and Outputs
Built in High Pass filters
Intuitive, 'user friendly' layout
Flawless performance in any audio environment

Tamper-Proof Crossover Points
The crossover points are determined internally by the value of 4 resistors per channel; changing
the resistor value changes the crossover point. This 'semi fixed' method avoids the pitfalls of
externally adjusted crossover points, making the crossover points tamper-proof once they are set.
Idle fingers can't fiddle with the crossover points and create havoc with the system!
As a handy guide, a list of common crossover points and their corresponding resistor values are
printed inside the unit's lid, and also set out in the Owner's Manual.
On the front panel are level controls for Low and High in dual channel 2 way mode, and Low, Mid
and High in single channel 3 way mode, with corresponding Outputs on the rear panel.

Balanced Inputs and Outputs
EC-2 has Balanced Inputs and Outputs, on XLR connectors.
The EC-2 also has an additional summed Mono Low output, for applications that need a Mono Low
feed (e.g. Left and Right full-range plus a single Sub Bass speaker).
High Pass Filter
There is also a preset 30 Hz HighPass filter to remove unwanted subsonics which can damage speakers
and waste amplifier power.
In addition, each output has up to +6 dB of gain available, to compensate for amplifiers and speakers of
differing sensitivities.
Universal AC Power
AC power range is a universal 100 to 120V or 220 to 240VAC, and is connected to the unit via a standard
IEC connector, with built-in fuse and voltage change switch.
Uncompromising Audio Quality
Innovative circuit design is pointless unless it delivers stunning sound quality, and here the EC-2 excels.
It has been designed for uncompromising audio quality, and to achieve this, Linkwitz Riley 24dB (Fourth
Order) state variable filters are used throughout, ensuring a smooth Phase Correct transition through the
crossover region.
From Stage Monitors to Studio Monitors, from Front of House to the Front room of your House, the ARX
EC-2 is a crossover that is suited to any application that requires flawless, transparent sound.
You'll never compromise on Quality when you choose ARX
