Product Details ＋

A part of the ADI-2 series, the RME ADI-2/4 Pro SE is RME's award-winning high-performance converter, modeled after the ADI-2 Pro. The RME ADI 2/4 Pro SE comes with a newly developed circuit board, improved specs and faster DSP for an outstanding transparent sound signature, as well as extreme power headphone amplifiers including IEM power setting, super low noise 4.4 mm Pentaconn balanced connection, trigger out function for powering on/off external devices and finally an RIAA mode for directly digitizing vinyl discs in the highest quality.

The ADI-2/4 Pro SE is the top-of-the-line system by RME, sporting a multitude of devices compressed in one housing. It's even more flexible and powerful than the RME ADI 2-Pro due to significantly increased hardware effort. This unit is the perfect addition for audiophiles and audio professionals who crave unparalleled performance in both studio and home usage.

A Feature-rich Converter for Discerning Audiophiles

The RME ADI-2/4 Pro SE is a 2-channel analog input to digital and 4-channel digital to analog output converter in a half-rack (9.5") enclosure of 1 U height. It's equipped with reference-class tech specs and an unprecedented feature set:

5-band parametric EQ
Fast Bass/Treble Adjustment
Crossfeed
Extreme Power Headphone Output
IEM Mode, Lower noise Extremer Power Design

including 5-band parametric EQ, fast bass/treble adjustment, crossfeed, and a new concept in loudness sound control. RME's exclusive Extreme Power Headphone Output stage delivers incredibly powerful headphone outputs (2.1 Watts unbalanced, 3.4 Watts balanced at 32 Ohms, per channel). With a special IEM mode, the Lower noise Extreme Power design adds additional IEM power states (High power, Low power, IEM) for full IEM compatibility.

A high resolution IPS panel for the graphical operation surface eases operation even more, and displays further functions provided by the DSP, namely Peak level meters, a 30-band analyzer in DIGICheck biquad filter technology, and a State Overview screen listing the current states of SPDIF, AES, USB and clock. The RME ADI-2/4 Pro SE supports sample rates between 44.1 kHz and 768 kHz. Furthermore, RME's SteadyClock FS guarantees exceptional performance in all clock modes. Thanks to a highly efficient jitter suppression, the AD- and DA-conversion always operates on the highest sonic level, being completely independent from the quality of the incoming clock signal.

With MM (Moving Magnet) compatibility, the RME ADI-2/4 Pro SE does not require an external preamp anymore and can directly be connected to turntables. It has suitable input impedance, RIAA equalization, and the necessary preamplification.

Included with the RME ADI-2/4 Pro SE is a remote control that provides buttons for standby on/off, volume, balance, bass and treble, input selection (optical, coaxial, USB) mute, on/off loudness, bass/treble and EQ. There are also four programmable buttons that provide access to 52 different functions and commands for maximum flexibility.

Incredibly Flexible and Powerful Inputs & Outputs

The RME ADI-2/4 Pro SE includes two servo-balanced analog inputs on combo XLR / TRS jacks, two separate balanced and unbalanced outputs on XLR and TRS, and two stereo Extreme Power headphone outputs on the front for easy balanced operation of all headphones, including IEMs via Pentaconn connector.

Also available are optical SPDIF I/O, which also understands ADAT, as well as coaxial SPDIF (RCA) and AES I/O (XLR) via an included breakout cable. This universal set of I/O options offers superior quality and flexible connectivity to those who take a no-compromise approach to audio.

With independent balanced outputs for Line and Phones, balanced phones no longer mute the rear outputs. Balanced Line and Balanced Phones outputs can be u
