Amphion - Acoustic Measurement Amplifier

The Amphion is a compact power amplifier, intended for acoustical measurements in the field or laboratory. The gain is set in 1 dB steps by means of a tactile step rotary knob and read from a large bright display. The overload indicator monitors the input, the outputs and the mains voltage. All controls and connectors are placed on the front panel, enabling you to set up the Amphion very quickly, and to operate it in horizontal or vertical position, outside or inside its flight case. 

          

Remote control 
In particular for sound insulation and interrupted noise reverberation time measurements, the Amphion is provided with an RF remote control. Operating at a distance of up to 100 m, the remote control can be used to switch the built-in pink or white noise generator, to change the gain, or to select 1 of 2 loudspeaker sound sources, thus allowing a reduction of measurement setup time.

 

Applications

  • Room acoustics measurements

  • Sound insulation measurements

  • Laboratory acoustical measurements

  • General purpose signal tracing and sound monitoring

  • Education or presentations on sound

  • Sound system equalization

Line input and line output
The line input and line output signal ground is insulated from the chassis, thereby eliminating ground loop hum and noise. A headphone can be connected to the line output using the included headphone cable. To insulate the input ground from the output ground, or for connection to balanced signals, e.g. through an XLR connector, the optional CA05 transformer adapter can be used.  Very high input signal levels can be attenuated using the optional CA06 attenuator cable. 



Only 9 kg to carry.
