AudioControl Bijou3 & CXR-5 AVR Mini
AudioControl will be exhibiting innovative A/V solutions at the upcoming CEDIA Expo in Denver, CO. Designed based on market trends and feedback from A/V integrators, AudioControl’s newest amplifiers and mini-chassis surround receivers deliver premium performance while creating critical opportunity for A/V pros.
AudioControl will be debuting two compact-chassis surround receivers that will enable integrators to deliver Dolby Atmos for Home Audio and DTS:X Pro processing in any zone. Both models are only 1U and feature AudioControl’s astonishing adaptation of a GaN-based high-power amplifier platform. The Bijou3 offers three powered channels for L/C/R applications at 100-watts per channel plus a subwoofer output and two additional audio outputs for system flexibility. The CXR-5 AVR Mini offers five powered channels at 65-watts per channel plus a subwoofer output and two additional audio outputs for easy 5.1 or 7.1 system configurations. Both models offer high power and exceptional performance from a compact 1U form factor that can be housed in an AV rack or mounted behind the TV. These compact surround receivers from AudioControl represent the ultimate solution for multi-channel audio/video in any room. Dirac Live room correction will be offered as an option. Integrators will be able to effortlessly manage system configuration remotely.
“Clients are asking for a surround sound experience away from their main home theater - and these new mini receivers have been engineered to deliver superb performance in media rooms, bedrooms, workout rooms, home offices, and more,” explained Chris Kane, VP of Sales at AudioControl.
The AudioControl Director Model M6800 multi-zone amplifier is now available with a Dante option that supports digital audio networking capability, continuing the company’s unwavering commitment to provide the most advanced, high-performance entertainment solutions for professional A/V installers. The Director Model M6800D is a high-power 16-channel amplifier with onboard DSP, and drivers are available for popular 3rd party control systems including Crestron, Savant, RTI and Control 4. Last year, AudioControl began delivering the award-winning CM-Series 70-volt amplifiers with a Dante port option, making AudioControl’s Made in USA quality available for outdoor entertainment and other applications.
