ARX USB DI-Q Overview

The ARX Audibox USB DI-Q is a high-resolution USB-to-analog audio playback interface designed for controlled audio delivery in education, corporate, legal, and presentation environments. It enables simple, reliable playback of audio files from Windows or Mac computers with the added ability to cue and monitor privately before sending sound to a public address system and features a summed-mono output and ground-lift switch.

Private Monitoring and Cue Control
Ideal for settings where accurate playback is critical—such as courtroom proceedings, lectures, and corporate presentations—the USB DI-Q allows users to monitor and cue audio in a closed headphone environment. Once ready, audio can be switched to the public sound system at the touch of a button, ensuring clear and intentional output with minimal user error.
Plug-and-Play Simplicity for Any Setup
The USB DI-Q installs instantly as a generic USB audio device on both Mac and Windows systems with no drivers required. It provides a 24-bit high-resolution DAC, supporting sample rates up to 96 kHz and outputs summed balanced analog audio to professional sound systems. Setup is straightforward and intuitive, making the device well suited for use by non-technical staff.
Built for Integration and Reliability
Its compact and rugged form factor fits seamlessly into new or retrofit AV installations. Housed in a heavy-duty, all-steel chassis with a textured powder coat finish, the USB DI-Q is built to withstand everyday use in fixed installations. Slip-resistant rubber pads provide stability on work surfaces, while an optional under-table bracket kit enhances security.

Powered directly via USB, the USB DI-Q requires no external power supply. It is handmade in Australia and includes a premium USB-A to USB-B cable.
