16-CHANNEL IMMERSIVE SOUND PROCESSOR

Description

The ISP Core 16 is StormAudio's gateway into reference-grade immersive processing — a French-engineered 16-channel preamp/processor that brings the same Dirac Live calibration toolkit and bass-management philosophy as the flagship Elite into a more streamlined chassis. It decodes and upmixes Dolby Atmos, DTS:X Pro, Auro-3D and IMAX Enhanced, with legacy codec support up to 192 kHz.

Seven HDMI inputs and two HDMI outputs with eARC handle 4K UHD with HDR10, Dolby Vision and HLG (HDMI 2.0b / HDCP 2.2 stock, with an HDMI 2.1 upgrade board available for 8K and 48 Gbps).

Dirac Live, Dirac Live Bass Control and Dirac Live Active Room Treatment ship as standard, with up to 20 PEQs per channel, four-way active crossovers and unlimited subwoofers — giving custom installers a complete platform for sophisticated cinema layouts.
