Product file
With our first fully networked speaker processor, the Galileo Galaxy leverages open-source AVB technology to extend a new level of audio control in driving and aligning speaker systems with multiple zones. It represents a powerful tool for corrective equalization and creative tuning in a full range of applications from touring to cinema.
