DEQX Products - PDC-2.6P-Preamp


PDC Preamp

Loudspeaker, Room and Recording Correction Preamp/Crossover


Based on the DEQX Calibrated™ PDC-2.6 speaker and room correction processor, the preamp model features include remote-control based analogue volume control and 100 memory parametric equalization for correcting recordings.

 

In the PDC-2.6P Preamp model, Burr Brown analogue volume controls follow DEQX's 12MHz DACs to maintain full audio resolution at low listening levels.

 

The remote control provides minimum phase equalization with high and low shelving and a variable parametric band that can be centred at any frequency in semitone increments. Bandwidth is adjustable from a single semitone to 4 octaves.

 

Source selection using the remote is from four stereo inputs: unbalanced (RCA), balanced (XLR), digital AES/EBU (XLR) and digital S/PDIF (RCA).
