The two included 16x16 SE I/O modules offer stunning dynamic range with low distortion and noise for mastering-grade sonic quality. The system is Dolby Atmos ready.

This configuration gives you a total of 32 analog inputs on four DB-25 connectors, plus 32 analog outputs on four DB-25 connectors. You also get four channels of S/PDIF I/O via RCA connectors. The chassis utilizes USB-C (Thunderbolt) connectivity for high-speed data transfer rates and compatibility with your computer. Its front-panel presents a TFT touchscreen display, multifunction control knob, and convenient 1/4" stereo headphone output.

Apogee Electronics Symphony Mk II Chassis with Thunderbolt 3 Interface (No I/O Modules)

The Symphony I/O Mk II Chassis with Thunderbolt 3 from Apogee Electronics is an advanced, flexible multichannel audio interface featuring the newest flagship AD/DA conversion, modular I/O (up to 32 inputs and outputs), and an intuitive touchscreen display. The chassis provides two I/O Module slots for a variety of digital audio conversion options that form the interface side of the Symphony I/O Mk II.

The front-panel touchscreen offers convenient access to nearly every setting including sample rate, clock source, headphone and speaker output levels, meters for all I/O and section navigation, as well as input levels, digital I/O, and configuration settings. Note, this purchase includes the Symphony Mk II chassis and Thunderbolt 3 interface card only, it does not include any I/O modules.

Thunderbolt 3/4 Ready
Finally, you can enjoy all the features and modularity of the Symphony I/O Mk II series while exploiting the massive bandwidth afforded by Thunderbolt 3 technology. With universal USB-C connectors provided by the preinstalled Thunderbolt 3 option card, this interface can be easily integrated into the most modern workflows and is fully compatible with all computer and audio systems using Thunderbolt 3/4 or USB-C connectivity.
Rear Panel Slots
The rear panel provides access to the two I/O Module slots that are capable of a combined thirty-two channels of input and output, while the two Thunderbolt / USB-C connectors ensure compatibility with modern Windows and Mac computers. Also included are wordclock I/O connectors and termination, an option-card slot, and a quiet digitally controlled fan to keep everything running cool. The optional five I/O Modules allow the user to choose from standard configurations, or customize the following-channel count, analog to digital input, digital to analog output, microphone preamps (requires an analog card), and digital I/O.
Pristine Conversion
The Symphony I/O Mk II features a single ultrahigh-fidelity DAC and headphone amplifier with Apogee's Constant Current Drive technology, which was first introduced in the Apogee Groove. The headphone amplifier dynamically compensates for the nonlinearities of any connected headphones, providing massive power while maintaining extremely low distortion and linear frequency response.

Audio professionals looking for the very best converters will appreciate the updated Apogee Electronics 16x16 SE Module, a sixteen-channel analog input and sixteen-channel analog output module for the Symphony I/O Mk II. The module occupies one of the two slots available on the chassis. Additionally, two-channel coaxial S/PDIF input and output is also provided. The A/D circuit has been refined to offer a streamlined circuit design, resulting in the most transparent signal path to the A/D stage possible.

The D/A section has been optimized with a more powerful and robust output driver that is capable of driving virtually any input without a decrease in performance, regardless of the load presented by the connected gear. The analog inputs and outputs are offered on DB-25 connectors and require optional breakout cables, available in various configurations to suit individual requirements.

Note:
Requires Symphony I/O Mk II Chassis with available card slot.
Analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog module for the Symphony I/O Mk II system
Sixteen channels of balanced analog input and sixteen channels of balanced analog output
Two channels of coaxial S/PDIF input and output
