Kramer Electronics’ VS−88H2vis an 8×8 matrix switcher for 4K@60Hz (4:4:4) HDR signals and digital audio. It re-clocks and equalizes the signals and can route any one of 8 HDMI, HDCP 2.2−compliant sources (selectable) to any or all outputs simultaneously.

The VS-88H2 features independent audio routing. Any of the 8 embedded digital audio input can be routed to any digital output, in addition to 8 ARC signals, to produce an equivalent 16×12 audio matrix (8 embedded digital inputs + 8 ARC inputs and 8 digital outputs + 4 ARC outputs). The VS-88H2 also has individual EDID management per input. It captures and stores the EDID from a display device.

RADIUS (RSX Series) Loudspeakers and Subwoofers Deliver Intuitive and Straightforward Performance With Dante Integration

When construction began on the Xi’an Olympic Sports Center, home of China’s 14th National Games, officials wanted the modern 18,000 seat venue to feature a state-of-the-art PA system that would give every seat a memorable experience. With help from pro audio distributor EzPro International, officials found the solution they were looking for in EAW’s RADIUS (RSX) Series loudspeakers and subwoofers.

“In designing the sound system, the goal was to provide the same frequency response for each listening area and to address any unevenness throughout the audience areas,” says System Designer Zhang Xianjun. “We first built a 3D model for the stadium in AutoCAD, according to the architectural drawings. We then imported the model into EASE4.3 acoustic analysis software, followed by a 1:1 EASE model setup. We choose EAW’s RSX line array for its strong directivity, ability to optimize speech intelligibility and its overall fantastic sound.”
