{"product_id":"klark-teknik-pro-splitter-5-ds-50-353939","title":"Pro Splitter 5 DS 50","description":"\u003ch3\u003eThe Klark Teknik Legacy Serving a \"Stage-Ready\" Splitter\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith the DS 50, Klark Teknik applies its historic expertise in signal processing and distribution to a simple, reliable tool tailored for professional environments. The goal is clear: to offer a line-level splitter capable of duplicating a balanced XLR signal to multiple devices without compromising dynamic range and transparency. Positioned as a compact yet demanding solution, the DS 50 is intended for both live sound engineers and integrators looking for a passive box that is easy to deploy and consistent from one setup to another.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho Is the Klark Teknik DS 50 For and What Are Its Use Cases?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe DS 50 is designed for all situations where you need to send \u003cstrong\u003ethe same microphone or line-level balanced XLR signal\u003c\/strong\u003e to \u003cstrong\u003efive distinct destinations\u003c\/strong\u003e. In concerts, it perfectly suits scenarios of sharing signal between a front of house (FOH) console and a monitor console, or simultaneously feeding a broadcast control room, a recorder, an active monitoring system, and a secondary console. In audiovisual and multimedia contexts, it easily integrates into mobile racks, studios, conference rooms, or fixed installations where signal distribution must remain clean, stable, and quick to wire.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIts \u003cstrong\u003epassive\u003c\/strong\u003e operation is a major advantage in the field: no power supply needed, no power brick to secure, and immediate deployment. It is a relevant choice when operational simplicity and reliability are priorities, while maintaining accurate reproduction across a wide frequency range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDesign, Connectivity, and Performance: The DS 50's \"High Headroom\" Approach\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch4\u003eOptimized Input and Ultra-Linear Response\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe DS 50 features a custom input circuit developed with advanced analog design techniques to achieve an \u003cstrong\u003eimpedance matching\u003c\/strong\u003e adapted for low noise and \u003cstrong\u003eultra-linear\u003c\/strong\u003e behavior. This architecture aims to preserve the signal's dynamics and definition when duplicating to multiple outputs. The result: a frequency response rated from \u003cstrong\u003e20 Hz to 22 kHz\u003c\/strong\u003e with a variation of only \u003cstrong\u003eplus or minus 0.05 dB\u003c\/strong\u003e, ensuring coherent and transparent reproduction across the entire useful spectrum.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eBalanced XLR Distribution to 5 Outputs\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe DS 50's mission is to route a balanced XLR input signal to \u003cstrong\u003efive balanced XLR outputs\u003c\/strong\u003e, each intended for a specific application: mixing console, monitors, broadcast, recording, external processor, or any other compatible equipment. In real-world use, this configuration saves valuable patching time while reducing makeshift solutions and cascades of adapters. The DS 50 thus stands as a \"clean\" distribution tool, designed for professional workflows where cable clarity and repeatability matter as much as audio quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eConnectors and Reliability on Tour\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe connectivity relies on \u003cstrong\u003eNeutrik XLR connectors\u003c\/strong\u003e, chosen for their reliability and mechanical durability, especially appreciated during repeated setups and teardowns. The \u003cstrong\u003eultra-compact\u003c\/strong\u003e extruded aluminum housing protects the electronics and withstands transport stresses. Rubber protections enhance shock resistance and minimize handling impacts. Designed to accompany mobile setups, the DS 50 easily fits into a flycase, on a stage, or close to the stage to optimize cable lengths and line distribution.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFinally, its \u003cstrong\u003epassive\u003c\/strong\u003e design avoids power constraints and contributes to operational peace of mind: fewer failure points, fewer dependencies, and immediate commissioning. The DS 50 is stated as \u003cstrong\u003edesigned and manufactured in the United Kingdom\u003c\/strong\u003e, a hallmark appreciated by many professionals seeking durable equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e@media(max-width:632px){table[data-wb-spec]{display:grid;grid-template-columns:minmax(0,1fr)
