Sennheiser Spectera sits at center of NEP Australia’s audio overhaul
Tech Focus: Genelec says it has further expanded its UNIO monitoring platform with the introduction of the 9401A System Management Device for audio-over-IP networking.
The 9401A adds AoIP connectivity to Genelec’s entire range of Smart Active monitors and subwoofers in ST2110, AES67 and Ravenna formats. The 9401A supports all formats from stereo to 9.1.6, and brings all the convenience and flexibility of multichannel networked audio to the UNIO platform.
The 9401A works by converting the incoming IP stream and providing 16 monitor outputs, plus dedicated subwoofer and auxiliary stereo outputs, all in AES/EBU format. The monitor outputs feed the Genelec loudspeaker monitoring system, while the auxiliary output serves as an ideal feed for headphones, enabling binaural and secondary stereo loudspeaker monitoring. The 9401A’s tight integration with Genelec’s GLM software also allows entire system calibration, including subwoofer alignment and bass management.
The 9401A’s separate subwoofer output enables Smart Active subwoofers to be easily chained to increase the low frequency SPL output, and channel capacity can be quickly expanded with more 9401A devices, to provide compatibility with 22.2 and other high channel count immersive formats.
