Description
The new Generation of sound – HELIX DSP.2
Design-wise, it is as precious and compact as before, the Helix DSP.2 unveils its new “technical heart” with integrated state-of-the-art technology.
The cutting-edge 64 Bit “fixed point” Audio DSP with a breath-taking processing power of 295 MHz and 1.2 billion MAC operations per second provides unparalleled sound optimization options, not solely in this price range.
The connectivity options are by no means a short list – six RCA/Cinch and six highlevel inputs with ADEP circuit (Advanced Diagnostics Error Protection), an optical SPDIF input and eight RCA/Cinch outputs with a maximum of 6 Volts output, will enable the most flexible car audio configurations you have ever thought of.
However, there’s even more than that – the HELIX Extension Card slot (HEC) allows the addition of further input sources, like a Bluetooth Audio Streaming module or a High Resolution Audio USB soundcard.
