Key Features

 

Balanced XLR Auxiliary Inputs

In addition to the DN-A7100’s 8 balanced line outputs, it’s thoughtfully equipped with a pair of stereo XLR inputs. Switchable between +4dB and -10dB input levels, these inputs are ideal for any source such as a professional CD player in a boardroom or an outboard microphone mixer in a conference hall.

Full-featured AV Source Switching

The DN-A7100 is not just a surround sound decoding preamp. It is a full-featured AV source switcher. All audio and video sources in an installation are easily hooked up to the rear of the unit and from the front panel, the included IR controller, or by RS-232, the end-user may easily select whichever source they wish to enjoy.

Source Video Switching with Convert to Component

Let’s face it. Even in today’s technically advanced systems, not all video components have high definition outputs. Many boardrooms still rely on source products like VCR’s and analog TV tuners.

There is nothing worse than having to run multiple video cables to a display. Well, that’s OK. With the DN-A7100’s convert to component feature, it does not matter which input your device hooks up to. Simply plug your TV tuner into the composite TV input and your S-VHS into the VCR S-video input, the DN-A7100 converts the signals to the component outputs, allowing you to only run one set of cables to the display.

7.1 direct audio inputs

Ensuring compatibility with any future component, audio format, or external equipment with decoded outputs (i.e. SACD, Blu-ray player, HD-DVD player) is not a problem with the inclusion of the 7.1 direct audio inputs.

 

Controllability

The DN-A7100 is controllable via it’s included Infrared remote controller or by RS-232c serial control. A 9-pin D-Sub connector allows for integration into any installation with a Crestron® or AMX® control system.
