Allen & Heath PRIME Output Module Premium 8-Channel Output for DX32 Expander

The PRIME Output Module is installed into a DX32 expansion chassis and utilizes the very latest converter technology and ultra-linear components, which exploits the full potential of Allen & Heath s 96 kHz XCVI FPGA core, delivering next-level audio quality for monitors, amp racks, or broadcast applications.

At a Glance

• Next-generation D/A output card design
• Use with DX32 for SQ, dLive, and Avantis
• Fully balanced differential output stage for improved common mode performance, crosstalk and linearity
• Ultra-low THD and noise
• The very latest 32-bit DACs for class-leading conversion
• Specially selected operational amplifiers for ultralow noise
• Full metal shielding for increased RF rejection throughout
• Optimized for use with the 96 kHz XCVI FPGA core

• With the same attention to detail and meticulous component choice as the PRIME Input card, high-quality resistors, capacitors, and op-amps have been selected for their exceptional performance: low noise, low distortion, and linearity.
• The inclusion of a balanced line driver circuit not only offers ultralow noise and distortion, but maintains common mode feedback when clipping and avoids excessive ground currents, further slashing distortion. The improved inter channel crosstalk results in optimal stereo field and depth.
• The differential design also reduces common mode DC offsets on the output, removing coupling capacitors to realize the most transparent sound possible throughout the frequency range.
• Our premium 32-bit DAC technology runs at 96 kHz, offering exceptional distortion and noise characteristics for ultra-high performance. The DAC filter can also be configured for different anti-aliasing roll-off filter characteristics including roll-off speed and latency, so you can choose the optimal settings depending on the application.
• To preserve signal integrity the PRIME circuitry is encased in full-metal shielding for increased RF rejection throughout the signal path.
