OPERA UNICA 12

OPERA’s potential grows even further with OPERA UNICA: 2 brand new models (12” and 15”) featuring CLASS D DIGIPRO G3 amp module delivering up to 1800 W peak and neodymium woofers.

What makes OPERA UNICA series “unique” in dBTechnologies’ active loudspeaker range is its networkable capability via Aurora Net control software (available in free download at dBTechnologies website), using the integrated RDNet ports, allowing a complete EQ,delay and processing customization and real time monitoring of the PA system in use.

Opera’s distinctive asymmetrical acoustic design of the HF horn ensures optimized coverage. Furthermore, sound processing features linear-phase FIR filters allowing an excellent linear response, resulting in a clear and intelligible audio performance from every listening position.

The perfect features’ mix making OPERA UNICA ready for the most demanding professional users.

Asymmetrical Horn

The new dBTechnologies asymmetrical horn design delivers similar effective coverage for smaller applications.
The high-frequency horn is narrower on top to bundle sound and throw it over greater distances.
It flares out at the bottom to achieve a wider pattern of throw.
(This compensates for high frequency loss as sound travels further from the source) and distributes the signal more uniformly across all audience areas.

Aurora Net

This product is fully-compatible with Aurora Net software

Digipro® G3

System of digital amplification engineered by dBTechnologies.

Based on the previous Digipro projects, completely re-designed, lighter in weight and more efficient, new Heatsink, newest components which maximize the power with a lower consumption.

DSP: Digital Sound Processor

These models come with a powerful DSP. Serving as an active crossover and controller, it splits and limits the signal and aligns phases and delay times.
Best of all, it even enables dBTechnologies' engineers to fine-tune the enclosures for the most balanced response.
It is this perfect balance that ensures your signals - speech, playback tracks, and live music – are sent accurately in every detail.
That makes a dBTechnlogies product a real all-rounder for every sound reinforcement challenge.

Linear Phase FIR Filters

A low-latency sound processing featuring Linear Phase FIR filters allows VIO cabinets to deliver an extremely coherent audio performance, standing out for its intelligibility and clarity from every listening position. This is also achieved by making the phase response as linear as possible, avoiding any distortion.

Lightweight

Multifunctional Housing

A multifunctional housing offers many placement options, for instance as a floor monitor, satellite speaker in combination with subwoofers or as a fullrange system on pole mounts.

Preset System

The opportunity of modifying the character and equalization of a speaker is a very important prerogative in adapting a speaker to multiple functions.
The introduction of the Preset System enables to choose directly from the box the most adeguate equalization for the desired use, optimizing performances without the need of external processors.
The management of phase, limiter and x-over will be modified automatically depending on the chosen set-up, preserving the internal acoustic equipment.

RDNet

Digital net for bi-directional control of connected devices.
The acronym RDNet originates from the development, on behalf of RCF and dBTechnologies, of a universal network which allows adjustments in real time and supervision of all the connected systems, using cables based on ethernet cat 5 wires.
With the specific software and the interfaces control 2 and control 8, a complete command of the acoustic system will be possible allowing real time supervision on each electrical component of the various speakers.

RDNet allows you to:
Monitor levels, limiters, and temperatures
Select system presets
Configure setups off-line
Mute units
Group modules and assigning group EQ, delay and phase
Test individual components
Automatically address system components
Tap into LAN and USB interfaces
Extend the network via wireless LAN access points.
