The dbx DriveRack PA2 is a professional loudspeaker management processor featuring AutoEQ, advanced feedback suppression, crossover processing and speaker protection for live sound and installed PA systems.
The dbx DriveRack PA2 is a comprehensive loudspeaker management system engineered to optimize, protect, and control professional sound reinforcement setups. Designed for touring sound engineers, mobile DJs, live bands, houses of worship, and commercial venues across Malaysia, the DriveRack PA2 provides all the essential signal processing needed between your mixer and amplifiers to ensure pristine audio performance.
The DriveRack PA2 delivers comprehensive audio processing tailored for both powered and passive PA speaker configurations. Incorporating updated AutoEQ™ algorithms, the processor automatically measures and equalizes the acoustic environment using an optional RTA microphone, achieving flat and balanced room response in seconds without requiring lengthy sound checks.
Equipped with dbx's industry-leading Advanced Feedback Suppression (AFS™) technology, the DriveRack PA2 actively detects and eliminates acoustic feedback before it becomes audible. Featuring up to 12 precise notch filters per channel, AFS prevents howling and squealing during live performances and presentations without altering the overall tonal characteristics of the sound system.
The DriveRack PA2 offers versatile crossover configurations supporting 2x2, 2x4, and 2x6 routing to seamlessly integrate full-range loudspeakers and subwoofers. It includes graphic and 8-band parametric equalizers for precise tone shaping, legendary dbx compression, and PeakStopPlus® output limiting to protect speakers against unexpected signal spikes. Integrated driver alignment delay allows front-of-house engineers to accurately time-align multi-way speaker cabinets and subwoofers for maximum phase coherence and acoustic punch.
With built-in Ethernet connectivity, the DriveRack PA2 can be controlled wirelessly over a local Wi-Fi router using dedicated control applications for iOS, Android, macOS, and Windows. Engineers and system operators can adjust crossover points, EQ curves, dynamics, and levels directly from a smartphone, tablet, or laptop while walking the listening area, making system calibration and tuning faster and more intuitive than ever.
Whether deployed in live sound reinforcement rigs, houses of worship, school auditoriums, corporate conference facilities, or permanently installed commercial sound systems, the dbx DriveRack PA2 ensures maximum loudspeaker efficiency, reliable component protection, and exceptional audio clarity.
