Product Description

The Allen & Heath AB168 is a portable AudioRack, providing 16 XLR inputs and 8 XLR outputs when connected to a GLD-80 or GLD-112 mixer, or to an AR2412 AudioRack.

Featuring 16 mic preamps with Phantom Power indicators and 8 XLR line outs, AB168 runs on Allen & Heath’s proprietary dSNAKE protocol.

The AB168 unit connects over a single Cat5 cable to a QU or GLD mixer. It can also connect to an AR2412 AudioRack via a secure dSNAKE EtherCon port. A second EtherCon port is provided for daisy-chaining to another AB168 box or connection of a ME personal mixing system. AB168 auto updates its firmware to synchronise with the GLD system.

The rack’s rugged design, including rubber bumpers, renders it highly roadworthy and allows it to be placed on the stage floor during performances. Weighing in at just 4.8kg and featuring a sturdy carry handle, AB168 is also designed for maximum convenience and portability. An optional rack mounting kit is also available.

Bought a new Mixer and Speakers Kit arrived in great condition and is working well.

Mr. Jurrie Eisinga27th Sep 2019

The AB168 is a must have for ah QU-SB it turned it into a 32 channel desk, it ads pad to your desk, through all the QU desk Ranges and gives you a -20db volume reduction. Wich it will only do adding an AB168 or AR2412 to any qu. Jurrie Eisinga.
