Product Description
Key Features
• Comprehensive API and AVPro Edge GUI for customized configurations
• AVPro Edge 10-year warranty plus world-class tech support
• Fully integrates with major third party automation systems, such as C4, Crestron, Elan, and URC via IP control
• Four digital inputs; two are extension-based and also selectable to route analog signals, plus two Coaxial / Toslink
2CH 24x24 Audio Matrix
The AC-MAX-24 two-channel audio matrix switcher is designed to enable integrators to address distributed audio requirements for digital and analog user experiences, whether in residential applications or commercial installations, when partnered with multi-channel amplifiers from any preferred manufacturer.
The highly intuitive AVPro Edge engineered GUI and comprehensive API directly connect you with unrivaled ease into a completely customizable signal routing environment, plus the AC-MAX-24 also features third-party IP-controllability by automation systems such as Crestron, Control4, Elan, Savant, URC, and more, giving new weight to the word flexibility.
A signature engineering highlight is the built-in pairs of AEX (Audio EXtender) receivers and transmitters for de-centralized sources or non-speaker-level destination endpoints. A treasured classic audio product such as a 10.5-inch, open reel tape machine may remain proudly on display, yet show off its sonic wares to all reaches of the home via AEX connection, and through AEX output, recording is possible as well.
The unadorned front panel is free of buttons or connection points, deferring to a simple IR receiver as the only sign of the AC-MAX-24’s ready-for-business demeanor. Twenty-four total inputs may be directed to twenty-four total outputs, individually or in custom configured groupings (non, two-channel digital signals are not downmixed). Rear top-panel facilities tout 20 analog input pairs and two dual Coaxial/Toslink digital inputs, plus the two AEX convertible receivers. All inputs may be sent to the bottom row complement of 22 analog output pairs and the two convertible AEX transmitters, individually or in custom configured groupings. Four 12V triggers may be used to awaken amplifiers or for custom events.
While purely an audio product representing a new horizon, the AC-MAX-24 sports AVPro Edge pedigree throughout, maintaining the solid build quality and unflappable reliability AVPro Edge is renowned for. In a world where less than well-engineered products have no place to hide, the AC-MAX-24 will highlight your next system design with fresh thinking and distinguished audio performance.
Key Benefits
- Twenty-Four Available Inputs/ Up to Twenty-Four Outputs - Twenty analog RCA unbalanced input pairs, with two Coaxial/Toslink digital inputs, plus convertible analog/digital de-centralized inputs. Twenty-two analog RCA unbalanced outputs plus two de-centralized outputs.
- Built-in De-centralized AEX Receivers & Transmitters - Two AEX receivers (AC-AEX-T separately required for source devices) harvest convertible analog or digital signals from source devices at distances as great as 130M (over Shielded Twisted Pair).
- Conversely, two AEX analog/digital outputs (AC-AEX-R separately required for source devices) may send analog or digital signals to devices located at distances as great as 130M (STP).
- Integration Friendly - AC-MAX-24 may be partnered with any preferred amplifiers, plus controlled by all major automation providers via IP.
- Configuration Friendly - Comprehensive API and AVPro Edge-developed GUI for complete customization of signal routing and audio parameters including independent channel volume, balance, tone adjustment plus equalization.
- Four 12V Trigger Outputs - Configure amplifier turn ons/offs or customize for various events.
