A&h avantis, S Network Vs Dante

[lxkev]

Hello

 

Looking at buying and A&H Avantis.

 

Probably buying a Dante card for it for Qlab.. But wondering if I should then go for the Dante stage boxes.

 

Any avantis user on here got any thoughts?

Dante would give you redundancy option, and can be connected to a computer without the need for a desk in the system - as well as working with anything else Dante (though gain and phantom control would need software or A&H desk). Anything more than 2 devices (+computer) is going to need a switch.

 

If you’re not wanting any of those things, the DX boxes will save you a few ££ (or AB/AR boxes even more, but at 48kHz though more opinions on channel count)

 

All routing options are the same.

Thanks Mark.
