NV Exciter
NVLT Controller & Exciter
See Specifications
Dimensions are same width and depth, but height is almost 3”; much lighter as there is no internal ac-dc power supply
No Orban Inside support
Orban Inside, Livewire, IceCast, Shoutcast Support
NAPE86 exciter/control PWB
Single Exciter Systems use NAPE83 based module NAE106 for exciter and controller functions;
Dual Exciter Systems use NAPE83 based module NAE106 for control functions and exciter A, and an NAPE86 based module NAE107 for exciter B
Removable Exciter Module; Optional Hot Pluggable Standby
Removable Controller/Exciter Module (but Off-Air); Optional Main/Standby Exciter with Hot Swappable Standby
See Specifications for Audio Performance
Single Exciter System has equivalent Audio Performance to VS;
Dual Exciter System has equivalent Audio Performance to VS when operating on exciter A, and NV when operating on exciter B;
