D SERIES MULTILOOP™ DRIVER (10 AMPS X 2) – DANTE
The D10-2-Dante (D Series) represents the global benchmark for digital audio hearing loop systems.
Features
The compact, elegant and sturdy units not only feature digital signal processing and networking functionality but are also the most versatile and powerful solution available.
The D10-2-Dante digital amplifier is a 10 Amp dual output class ‘D’ driver; meaning a 60%+ increase in energy efficiency over existing solutions. Both drivers feature capacitive touch front panels with intuitive menus, built-in test signals, and are fully networkable with a Wi-Fi accessible standard browser-based control panel for remote set-up, monitoring, and email alerts. Dante versions also feature a Dante specific RJ45 input for plug and play Dante network audio.
The D10-2-Dante features 10 Amps per loop output plus ample voltage headroom, making it the most flexible solution on the market, suitable for a huge range of applications. The added power of the D10-2-Dante provides a solution for installations in environments containing very high levels of metal, previously not possible without the use of combiners.
In another first for high-power Class D Induction Loop drivers, installation can be performed with total confidence, as unique multi-stage filtering ensures compatibility with both other system equipment and global EMC regulations. The D10-2-Dante also boasts Dual Slope Metal Loss Control that caters to a wide range of metal loss frequency characteristics.

Specifications
Audio
| Frequency Response | 80 Hz to 6.3 kHz ±3 dB |
| Distortion | THD+N < 0.2 %, 1 kHz sine wave at full current |
| AGC | Optimized for Speech, Dynamic Range > 36 dB |
| Metal Loss Correction | Corrects system frequency response due to metal structures in a building. Gain constant at 1kHz, adjustable gain slope from 0 to 4dB per octave in 0.25dB increments. Custom 2 slope MLC allows different slopes and transition frequency to be set via the menu. This does not compensate for signal loss from metal structures which can be significant. |
| Phase Shift | User selectable at 0° or 90° between outputs |
Indicators
| AGC LEDs | Indicates the status of the AGC in dB |
| Current LEDs | Indicates the peak current delivered to the loop |
| Clip LED | Indicates that the signal on the loop output is clipping and requires adjustment to either the driver settings, loop or potentially the selection of a more powerful driver |
| Error LED | Check the ‘Status’ menu for loop, amplifier and temperature errors and access fault codes |
