AtlasIED MVXA-2016 16-Channel Active Audio Monitor Panel

The AtlasIED MVXA-2016 is built for AV integrators and system technicians who need reliable, simultaneous visual and aural verification of distributed audio circuits — without adding a mixer or signal processor to the chain. Designed around a single-circuit board architecture, it supports up to 16 channels of speaker or line-level input in any combination, making it well-suited for installed paging systems, background music networks, and multi-zone commercial audio environments where 25V, 70V, and 100V distribution coexist.

What sets the MVXA-2016 apart from passive monitoring solutions is its DC-coupled capacitor design at every input, which preserves signal integrity and eliminates ground-loop issues without requiring an input transformer. Each input is individually jumper-calibrated to match its reference level, so a single panel can accurately represent mixed-voltage signal environments at a glance — a genuine advantage when servicing large installed systems with diverse zone configurations.

For aural monitoring, the unit offers an internal speaker, front-panel headphone jack, line-level output, and external speaker output, giving technicians multiple options for isolating and listening to individual channels during commissioning or fault diagnosis. The top-panel diagram eliminates guesswork during setup, and the compact 1U form factor keeps rack overhead minimal in equipment rooms where space is always at a premium.
