Sixteen input channels (eight stereo pairs) arrive through two D-sub connectors, and Main and Monitor outputs run on XLR. An Expansion input lets you cascade another 2-BUS-XT, 2-BUS+, or D-BOX+ when sixteen channels stop being enough.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eActive summing without compromise in a compact chassis\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike passive summing boxes, which need heavy make-up gain to restore lost signal and don't isolate a D\/A converter's ground from the audio ground, 2-BUS-XT's active circuit uses balanced receiver amplifiers with proper common-mode rejection, which translates directly into lower noise and a cleaner stereo image. Crosstalk at -109dB @ 1kHz and a maximum level above +27dBu mean the unit accepts signal from practically any D\/A converter without risking overload, and mono selectors on pairs 1-2 and 9-10 let kick and vocal sit solidly anchored to the center of the stereo field.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSignal color on demand, not baked in\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo coloring circuits — X-Former (transformer-driven second-harmonic saturation adding warmth in the lower midrange) and Coherence (a parallel processor that lifts harmonic content and gently widens the stereo image, controlled by its own blend knob) — can be assigned to the whole mix, to channel pair 15-16, or switched off entirely with true hardwire bypass. Color gets added deliberately when a track calls for it, rather than being a fixed, unswitchable part of the sound baked into the unit's design — the engineer decides session by session whether to reach for it at all.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKEY FEATURES\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSixteen-channel active analog summing (8 stereo pairs) in a 1U chassis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInputs on two D-sub connectors, Main and Monitor outputs on XLR\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExpansion input for cascading with another 2-BUS-XT, 2-BUS+, or D-BOX+\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMono switches for channel pairs 1-2 and 9-10\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eX-Former circuit: transformer-driven second-harmonic saturation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCoherence circuit: parallel processor widening the stereo image, with blend control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBoth coloring circuits true hardwire bypassable, assignable to the mix or channels 15-16\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStepped output level control for the summed mix\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned by Chris Muth, hand-built in the USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrequency response: ±0.1dB from 20Hz to 50kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTHD: 0.004% in the audio band\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIMD: 0.004% (IMD60 4:1)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrosstalk at 1kHz: -109dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNoise floor: -82dBu (total energy in the audio band)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum level: greater than +27dBu\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNominal operating level: +4dBu\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInput impedance: 12k Ohms, balanced\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutput impedance: 50 Ohms, balanced (600 Ohm drive capable)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower consumption: 25W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Dangerous Music","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54195219202385,"sku":"50655","price":2467.91,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8741\/0769\/files\/DangerousMusic2-BUS-XT1.jpg?v=1783596801","url":"https:\/\/wrdtunes.com\/fr-fr\/products\/dangerous-music-2-bus-xt","provider":"Wired Tunes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
