Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

DriveRack PA2 sits between a mixer and amplifiers, bringing together the processing used to configure and protect a live PA system. Its two line inputs and six line outputs support full-range, 2-way, and 3-way arrangements with crossover capability, output EQ, limiting, and driver-alignment delay. Setup Wizards guide level balancing, automatic EQ, feedback suppression, and speaker tunings. Ethernet control lets you adjust functions remotely from a mobile device or laptop. With an RTA mic, AutoEQ sets speaker levels and room EQ in seconds.
