Analogue \u0026amp; AES Inputs","description":"Headphone Amplifier\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n4 input battery powered twin headphone amp AES3 \u0026amp; Analogue in \u0026amp; TB Mic amp\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Top HAT M5 is a compact mixing headphone amplifier designed to provide flexible features for monitoring in an outside broadcast environment.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nTwo Headphone Amplifiers\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Top HAT M5 features two separate headphone amplifiers. Each amplifier has 3 individual 6.35mm jack sockets for headphone monitoring, therefore the unit provides monitoring for 6 pairs of headphones.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nFour Input Mixer\u003cbr\u003e\nBoth headphone amplifiers are fed via a mix of the 4 common inputs. The inputs are on XLRs and there are variable POTS for each input to create the required mix. There are 2 sets of the 4 variable POTS allowing separate mixes to be created for each of the two headphone amplifiers.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nAnalogue \u0026amp; AES3 Inputs\u003cbr\u003e\nThere are 4 balanced analogue inputs and 2 stereo AES3 inputs. Each headphone amps input source can be selected to be analogue or AES3. Selection is by a toggle switch positioned above the associated analogue XLR.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nOutputs\u003cbr\u003e\nIn addition to the 3 x 6.35mm jack sockets available for headphone monitoring on each headphone amplifier, there is also a master output available on XLR; this output can be switched to either MIX 1 or MIX2\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nTalkback\u003cbr\u003e\nThere is an XLR input for a talkback mic with adjustable gain control and a compressor\/limiter. The talkback mic is switched to the XLR talkback mic output via a front panel lever key. The lever key is momentary when pushed down and locks when pushed up.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nAnalogue \u0026amp; AES3 Talkback Mic Output\u003cbr\u003e\nThe output of teh talkback mic can be either analogue or AES3\u003cbr\u003e\nLoops\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Top HAT M5 features 2 x RJ45 connections for looping audio between units. The input connection is in parallel to the main inputs and contains the audio for the 4 inputs. The output connection simply loops the 4 audio inputs for linking to further units using normal CAT5 cable.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe loops only work when analogue input cicruits have been selected.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nPower\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Top Hat M5 is powered by 3 x D cell batteries or optional external DC power. As the battery level decreases there is a lower power LED for indication; as the level drops, the LED will start to flash faster and faster.","brand":"Glensound","offers":[{"title":"Top Hat M5 \/ https:\/\/www.glensound.co.uk\/product-details\/top-hat-m5\/ \/ null","offer_id":67757481164888,"sku":null,"price":2899.43,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/2671\/9576\/files\/ContainerBridge_4d0f82a8-7646-447f-8ec7-1724d442cd2a.png?v=1792314122","url":"https:\/\/store.qvest.co.nz\/products\/top-hat-m5-compact-4-input-headphone-amp-x-2-analogue-amp-aes-inputs","provider":"Qvest Store New Zealand","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
