The Opera Unica's advanced design ensures every detail is heard with absolute clarity.

RDNet network compatibility

Take control. Using the free Aurora Net software (available from dB Technolgies' website), you can take advantage of your Opera Unica's powerful networking capabilities. The software itself gives you precise control over equalisation, delay, and processing. This can be transmitted to your loudspeaker through the Unica's integrated RDNet ports. The ports are bi-directional, and utilise cables based on Cat 5 ethernet cables. With this powerful technology, you can take command of your RDNet system with unparalleled customisation. Plus, you can take advantage of real time system monitoring, as well as real time supervision of every electrical component within your loudspeaker.

Portable and versatile

The Opera Unica series is ideal for mobile performers. With a lightweight design, this powerful series of loudspeakers is easy to transport and position. The housing is crafted from rugged polypropylene, ensuring all of your speaker's components are kept safe in even the most demanding situations. The cabinet boasts a multifunctional design, providing you with a wide variety of placement options. The speaker is shaped to provide floor monitoring functionality. And with a 36mm pole mount receptacle, you can easily mount your loudspeakers on stands either as a full-range system, or in combination with subwoofers. Plus, there are even three (2 x top, 1 x back) M10 rigging points for quick and easy installation options.
