Stewart Audio FLX-E-160-2-CV-D 2 Channel DSP-Enabled Amplifier

Two-Channel DSP Amplifier with Dante and Ethernet for Networked AV Systems
The Stewart Audio FLX-E-160-2-CV-D is a two-channel constant voltage amplifier delivering 160 watts per channel at 70V or 100V, engineered for commercial installations demanding powerful networked audio performance. With integrated DSP, Dante™ I/O, Ethernet control, RS-232, and remote volume compatibility, this amplifier is designed to manage signal routing, processing, and amplification within one compact, half-rack chassis. It's built for demanding AV environments like education campuses, conference facilities, hospitality zones, and large-scale retail where power, control, and network integration must work together seamlessly.

Built-In DSP for Advanced Signal Management and Tuning
The FLX-E-160-2-CV-D includes a full-function internal DSP engine, capable of handling signal routing, filtering, mixing, EQ, dynamic processing, and more. A built-in cross-point matrix mixer allows flexible audio distribution from any input to any output, while tools like parametric EQ, high-pass/low-pass filters, compressors, and limiters let integrators optimize audio performance across different speaker types and room conditions. The result is a powerful, integrated solution for system tuning that eliminates the need for external processors.

Dante I/O for Digital Audio Over IP Infrastructure
With four Dante input and four Dante output channels, the FLX-E-160-2-CV-D is ready for modern AV-over-IP installations. It allows audio to be routed in and out of the unit over standard network cabling, reducing the need for analog wiring and simplifying integration with digital mixers, DSP systems, paging sources, and other Dante-enabled components. This is especially useful for distributed audio systems where flexible routing and scalability are key.

Multiple Input Options for Hybrid System Compatibility
Beyond Dante, the amplifier includes four analog inputs, all configurable for mic or line level, with phantom power available on two of them. This ensures compatibility with a broad range of source equipment including microphones, media players, and legacy paging systems. The pre-mix level control feature makes it easy to balance sources before signal routing, helping streamline the setup process.

Full Control Over Ethernet and RS-232
System control and monitoring are handled via Ethernet, with built-in support for configuration, status reporting, and remote management. Additionally, RS-232 support is available for integration with control systems, and remote volume control (RVC) compatibility enables localized adjustments. These multiple control layers make the FLX-E-160-2-CV-D flexible enough for fixed installations, yet responsive enough for dynamic spaces where configurations change often.

Compact, Silent Design for Noise-Sensitive Environments
With its convection-cooled, fanless enclosure and compact 1/2 rack footprint, the FLX-E-160-2-CV-D is built for installations where space is tight and silent operation is essential. From boardrooms to classrooms to hotel lounges, the amplifier operates quietly and efficiently while delivering high power and reliable processing performance.
