OUTPUT CONNECTORS (TO LOUDSPEAKERS/ARRAYS)
The Galileo 408 includes eight XLR-3M output connectors featuring high-resolution 96 kHz,
24-bit D/A converters. These outputs have the same line-driving capabilities found on Meyer
Sound’s analog line drivers, delivering signal levels up to +26 dBu. The Galileo 408 can easily
drive Meyer Sound self-powered loudspeakers to full output at all frequencies, even over
lengthy cable runs.
NOTE:
In the Compass control software on the Settings > Input and Output
page, the Output Voltage Range can be set to 26 dBu (the default) or
+20 dBu. The +20 dBu setting lowers the overall noise floor by 6 dB but makes the out-
put signal more susceptible to defects in the system’s grounding; thus the actual per-
formance at +20 dBu depends on the quality of grounding between components. At
either setting, the unit’s digital gain compensates for the output gain so that the overall
system output level of the Galileo 408 will remain constant.
