The Hyperion Axis10 is engineered for precision audio extraction, harnessing advanced technologies to deliver high-fidelity sound. Its integration with Dante and AES67 ensures that audio remains unchanged from source to destination, maximizing clarity and immersion.
The Hyperion Axis10 utilizes the eARC (Enhanced Audio Return Channel) protocol to optimize audio transmission from compatible displays, allowing for high-bitrate audio transmission typical of Dolby Atmos and DTS-HD formats. By leveraging a digital signal processing (DSP) architecture, the processor enables precise audio manipulation, including adjustments for delay, gain, and equalization across multiple output channels. The device's support for Dante and AES67 networking protocols ensures that audio is transmitted over standard Ethernet with minimal jitter and latency, maintaining the integrity of sound reproduction crucial for multi-channel immersive experiences. The onboard DSP also facilitates complex speaker configurations and the creation of a stereo downmix, allowing for versatile audio setups in varied environments.
