Foreword 

The  A2  dp  is  a  multi-functional  loudspeaker  featuring  an  integrated  digital  amplifier  providing 

500 Watt + 150 Watt @ 4 Ohms (AES) and a DSP controller. The horn can be rotated for monitor 

applications  or  to  suit  horizontal  installation.  Various  pre-configured  presets  and  volume  settings 

are available for selection. 

The integrated DSP controller is based on the same operating principle as the stand-alone control-

lers  HDLM  8  and  DSP  2.6.  A  mere  0.8  ms  latency  (from  analogue  input  to  output)  is  achieved 

through the use of a 96 kHz sample rate. The excellent signal to noise ratio is a further feature of 

the  DSP  controller.  Electronic  simulation  of  a  transformer  balanced  input  provides  additional  pro-

tection  against  hum  and  buzz  caused  for  example  by  external  interference.  High  grade electronic 

components  from  the  industrial  sector  and  first-class  circuit  design  result  in  a  robust  device  with 

excellent audio characteristics and minimize disruptive noise. 

The default state of the integrated DSP controller is the standard configuration as described in this 

manual. Custom presets can be installed by the user, but must be programmed with the LPI (Loud-

speaker Programming Interface) by the manufacturer. The preset file is a custom audio file which is 

simply played into the audio input of the controller. In this manner, individual configurations can be 

created, for instance to accommodate the specific requirements of an installation project. Further-

more, should you ever be unsure as to the integrity of the DSP configuration of your controller, you 

can  obtain  a  fresh  default  file  from  SEEBURG  acoustic  line  and  re-install  the  original  factory  pre-

sets yourself. Efficient and intelligent limiter functions provide optimal protection without sacrificing 

any of the potential of the system.
