Rated 4.9 (99 reviews)
The Linea Research 48 M3 Dante combines 8 channels of 400W amplification with integrated Dante digital audio networking in a 2U chassis. Purpose-built for touring and installation environments where AoIP infrastructure is standard, the M3 Dante eliminates analogue cable runs while maintaining the full DSP and control capabilities of the 48M platform. Every channel delivers its full 400W rating simultaneously – these are continuous, not burst figures.
