        INTRODUCTION

The DX-213 G2 is the newest in our DX Series Karaoke 

amplifiers. With commercial like functions this new amplifier 

is bringing KTV right to your living room! 

Equipped with a 4-pin S-Video plug, the DX-213 G2 is 

compatible with Karaoke Remote control (sold separately), 

perfect for use without reaching the amplifier itself. By storing 

the amplifier in a well ventilated area (e.g. systems room with 

air ventilation) the amplifier can work at full potential in an 

appropriate environment, and with the Karaoke Remote 

compatibility you won’t need to run back and forth adjusting 

the mixer since it can be controlled by remote.

Like the first generation, DX-213 G2 has the “SAIS” (Smart 

Audio Input Select) function that selects the active input over 

inactive audio inputs, so it will always tune to the playing 

music!

What is SAIS? 

Smart Audio Input Select is the ability to set a priority audio 

source when audio is playing, and reverting back to the 

previous input when inactive. 

BGM (Background Music) is set to play full time, until a 

priority source starts playing. In the priority are DVD and 

VOD, when either is active BGM will no longer be the 

playing source. When both DVD and VOD are inactive, 

source will automatically change to Background Music.
