How is the 9320A used?

For professional monitoring across fixed and mobile setups
The 9320A is the ideal audio monitoring multi-tool for engineers in stereo and immersive music studios, game audio studios, broadcasting, streaming and AV post-production.

Although at its best when used as part of our PRM solution alongside SAM Monitors and a computer running GLM and Aural ID software, the 9320A can also be used in independent mode without a computer – and provides support for all professional loudspeaker monitors and headphones.

Powered over its type-C USB data connection, the 9320A is compatible with any computer DAW. If power is not available from the computer, a separate USB type-C power input is available to use with a separate power source.

The audio bandwidth for all input/output combinations extends up to 46 kHz and offers a dynamic range exceeding 120 dB, THD+N lower than -110 dB and minimal input to output latency in the range 2 to 3.2 ms.

Aural ID adds binaural virtual monitoring
Our uniquely tailor-made and accurate Aural ID Technology utilises your highly detailed personal HRTF to render virtual monitors over professional headphones – offering true-to-life access to the experience of in-room monitoring, from stereo to immersive.

In combination with the reference-grade headphone output of the 9320A, Aural ID provides the highest possible standard of spatially correct headphone monitoring.
