AN ADVERTISING SUPPLEMENT TO SOUND & COMMUNICATIONSElectro-VoiceNetMax N8000-1500 – The Most Powerful ProAudio Processor on the MarketProven in the most demanding installations and live performances, Electro-Voice NetMax audio processing technology advances to the next level withthe N8000-1500. At the heart of the N8000-1500 is the new DSP-2 engine.Composed of three dual-core processors, the DSP-2 expands the total processingpower of the N8000-1500 to 1500 MIPS. The unique modular nature ofNetMax means that each input or output card added to a chassis provides anadditional DSP engine and another 100 MIPS of processing power. This meansthat a fully loaded chassis provides 1900 MIPS of processing — almost doublethe power of the original N8000. Combined with the optional CobraNetinterface, NetMax’s unique monitoring and supervision options, FIR-drive,and the multitude of control options provided by IRIS-Net, the N8000-1500represents the most powerful pro audio processor on the market!WEB ADDRESS: http://irisnet.electrovoice.comE-MAIL: pro.sound@us.bosch.comPeavey ElectronicsIPR Series Of Ultra-Lightweight and EfficientPower AmplifiersPeavey’s groundbreaking IPR Series of ultra-lightweight and efficient poweramplifiers boast as low as 6.2 lb. net weight on the IPR 1600 and up to 6,000watts power on the IPR 6000. IPR Series amplifiers are designed with aresonant switch-mode power supply and a high-speed class D topology thatyield the highest audio resolution available while dramatically reducing weightand increasing output power, reliability and thermal efficiency. In addition tothe standard IPR 1600, IPR 3000, IPR 4400 and IPR 6000 models, Peavey alsodesigned four models that feature built-in 32-bit, floating-point digital signalprocessing. The IPR DSP models share the same power ratings and lightweight, but ship with program-specific EQ presets that make common soundreinforcementEQ treatments easy to perform, as well as delays, crossover andstereo/mono operation with lockable security settings. A front-panel LCDscreen allows users to quickly identify and assign presets.WEB ADDRESS: www.peavey.comSpeco TechnologiesA-live Multi-Room Audio System Brings YourDigital Audio To Life!Play the same song file or audio playlist in up to 6 zones simultaneously fromthe same PC without any sharing restrictions OR play multiple playlists fromthe same PC in different zones.
