Balanced

The MC-8 Balanced includes balanced audio outputs for all

channels, including Zone 2. In many installations, the Digital

Controller is located in an equipment rack along with

tuners, satellite receivers, and so on which can introduce

audible interference into the system. By using balanced

audio connections between the digital controller and the

power amplifier, the potential for audio interference is

minimized. For systems utilizing amplified speakers,

balanced connections will eliminate noise introduced on

cables between the digital controller and speakers.

Powerful

At the heart of the MC-8 are four Analog Devices SHARC

digital signal processing engines, one Cirrus Logic DSP

engine, and ten 24-bit/192kHz digital-to-analog converters

- an architecture that is nearly identical to the MC-12. As

a result, the MC-12 and MC-8 share the same tremendous

processing power and sonic soul.The MC-8 includes THX

Ultra2 certification and dts 96/24 decoding, rounding out

its impressive list of playback technologies: Dolby Digital

EX, Pro-Logic II, dts-ES, dts Neo:6, and LOGIC 7.

MC-8 Digital Controller

Based on the reference MC-12 digital controller, the MC-8

is perfectly suited for less complex multi-channel systems

in which sound quality, picture quality, ease-of-use and

reliability are still of paramount importance. Sharing the

unique industrial design that identifies the new line of

Lexicon home theater products, the MC-8 is available in

balanced and unbalanced versions and an optional rack

mounting kit is available.

Value

Equipped with 2 independent zones, 8 configurable inputs,

and 8 channels of output, the MC-8 is ideal for all but the

most elaborate systems.With fewer rear panel connectors

and one less zone than the MC-12, the MC-8 is physically

smaller and more affordable. Drawing on Lexicon’s

legendary expertise in digital audio, the MC-8 offers

superior performance and value for today’s music and

home theater enthusiast.
