The Delta System

ADA Bus Features At A Good Price

The Delta System combines great ADA quality sound and long-life value, with the super-advanced ADA Bus technology. In keeping to the all-in-one design of both the Genesis and Millennium Systems, the Delta too, incorporates both component selector, preamplifier, power amplifier in one chassis. Each Delta mainframe component can include as many as eight (8) RAM-50 Room Cards. Each RAM-50 Room Card is requried per zone, so a single Delta chassis can power up to eight zones. Deltas can be ordered with the exact amount of RAM-50 Room Cards that you require and several Deltas can be chained together for up to 256 zones (32 Deltas).

Each RAM-50 acts as that room's (zone's) input selector so that each room can listen to its own component, independently of other rooms. Furthermore, the RAM-50 also controls that room's acoustical settings including: volume levels, bass & treble settings, loudness contour, and stereo enhancement. Since each RAM-50 has both a fixed line-level output and variable line-level output, any RAM-50 can also be used to send audio to additional power amplifiers, preamplifiers, or surround sound decoders. Finally, each RAM-50 also incorporates a built-in ADA quality power amplifier which is stable to 4 Ohms and capable of driving two pair of 8 Ohm speakers.

There are many options available for the Delta System including video-follow-audio switching (using the VSM-8 Video Switching Card), componnent AC control (using eigther the ACC-48 or ACC-3000), and control of all of your components (using the PCT-8 Source Controller). Additional ADA Bus options are discussed under ADA Bus System information and Hot Stuff. To see some of these features, ADA suggests checking out these pages.

The Delta System uses the same keypads that are also used in the System Omega and System 8000. These keypad options include the MC-3800, MC-3000, and MC-3000 OD. To gain a better understanding of these controls and what they do, simply click on one these buttons below.
