Sound System Protection in 2 easy steps...

Step 1: Insert key to ‘unlock’ front panel and adjust VU meter pre-set until the peaks of the incoming audio illuminate the red endstop 0dB LEDs.
Step 2: Adjust max output level pre-set until sound system volume reaches the maximum permitted SPL as specified by the installer or client. Remove key... and sleep soundly.

The new Drawmer SP2120 Speaker Protector offers both strict level control and tremendous peace of mind to the contractor, installer and venue in the knowledge that only the maintenance engineer and the venue manager hold a key. As its name suggests the 1U, two channel processor eliminates the possibility of ‘unauthorised’ excessive sound pressure levels on speaker systems which could result in damage to both chassis drivers and amplifier electronics. The unit also gives a wide variety of venues, such as clubs, theatres, pubs, schools, universities etc. the opportunity to comply with the local legislation regarding noise levels.
