Bring the soundtrack into your room. Explore immersive processors, receivers, and amplification with Audio Exchange, and plan a system around your speakers, seating, and space.
From an integrated receiver to a modular processor or a fully digital system, the right starting point depends on your speaker layout, amplification, and room. These are product families to discuss with our team, with configuration and availability confirmed for your project.
Compact processor · Analog outputs
A 3U processor with 16 balanced analog XLR outputs for a theater using separate power amplifiers. Core brings immersive processing and the StormAudio calibration platform into a compact chassis.
A practical starting point for an analog separates system. We’ll map speakers and subwoofers to the available outputs.

Modular processor · Room to expand
The flagship modular platform supports configurations from 16 to 32 channels, with analog XLR, AES/EBU, and audio-over-IP options. It is suited to larger layouts and projects that need more routing flexibility.
Processing channels are not powered speaker channels. Output hardware, licenses, and separate amplification are specified together.

Fully digital processors
Evo offers up to 32 digital channels. Compact 1U Evo One is available in 8, 12, or 16-channel licensed configurations. Both provide paths to compatible digital amplification or active speaker systems.
Digital outputs require compatible AES/EBU or AoIP equipment, or suitable conversion. We’ll confirm interfaces, networking, channel licenses, and source switching. Evo shown.

Receiver · Processing + amplification
Fusion 20 combines 20-channel processing with 16 channels of built-in amplification and four analog XLR outputs. It offers a more consolidated starting point for an immersive theater.
The 20 processed channels are not 20 built-in amplifier channels. We’ll plan the output assignments and any external amplification your layout needs.

16-channel power amplifier
A multichannel Class D power amplifier with 16 balanced XLR inputs for an analog-output processor. PA 16 can supply amplification across a theater’s main, surround, and height speakers.
Speaker load, listening distance, headroom, and any bridged channels guide the design. Bridging reduces the number of independent powered channels.

8-channel power amplifier · Analog & AoIP
A compact 2U amplifier with eight XLR inputs, AES67/Dante-compatible digital inputs, and DSP for AoIP speaker control. It can support conventional analog or networked audio system designs.
We’ll confirm the input path and speaker requirements. Bridged operation uses pairs of channels, providing up to four independent outputs.

The room is part of the system
Room calibration works best as part of a complete plan. We help coordinate the speakers, subwoofers, amplification, room layout, and control system, then define the setup and calibration your installation needs.
Measure the room and adjust the system response around the listening area. Speaker placement, room treatment, and careful measurement remain part of the plan.
Coordinate subwoofers and their integration with the speakers. Subwoofer quantity and placement should be planned before calibration begins.
Dirac Live ART uses compatible speakers together to help manage low-frequency room decay. We’ll assess speaker capability, placement, and support groups for your room.
Match channel count and output interfaces to your speakers and amps. Include HDMI sources, display, control, rack ventilation, and network design in the same conversation.
Audio Exchange · Richmond
Share dimensions, seating positions, existing equipment, and the speaker layout you have in mind. Photos or a floor plan can help us understand the project.
Choose the processor or receiver, output configuration, speakers, subwoofers, and amplification. We’ll confirm compatibility, current availability, and a tailored quote.
Plan installation, integration, measurement, and listening checks as part of the project scope. Discuss how you want the theater to operate day to day.
Core, Elite, Evo, and Evo One are processors that need suitable external amplification or active speakers. Fusion 20 includes 16 amplifier channels alongside 20-channel processing and four analog XLR outputs. The right choice depends on your speaker layout, power needs, rack space, and plans for the system.
Evo and Evo One use digital audio outputs rather than conventional analog pre-outs. The receiving amplifiers, active speakers, or converters must support the selected interface. We’ll check AES/EBU or AoIP compatibility, channel licensing, network design, and source connections before specifying a system.
Start with the full speaker and subwoofer layout. Independent subwoofer feeds, active speaker crossovers, and future additions can use outputs beyond the familiar surround-and-height notation. We’ll distinguish processing capacity, physical outputs, licensed channels, and powered channels in your proposal.
Room Correction adjusts the measured system response; Bass Control coordinates subwoofers and their integration with speakers; Active Room Treatment uses suitable speakers together to help control low-frequency room decay. They address related but different parts of calibration. We’ll confirm the chosen model’s software, licenses, firmware, and the setup your room needs.
Often, existing equipment can be part of the plan. Send us the model names and your current layout. We’ll check speaker loads, amplifier capability, signal connections, subwoofer integration, and practical installation requirements before recommending what to retain or change.
Contact Audio Exchange in Richmond to discuss your room and the models you are considering. We’ll confirm current demonstration options, configuration, pricing, availability, and the installation or calibration services appropriate to the project.
Personal advice. A tailored quote.
Tell us about your room, speaker layout, existing equipment, and the experience you want to create. We can help with a new theater, a processor upgrade, or a more involved installation.
