REDUCED*** ADA - Audio Design Associates Cinema Rhapsody Mach II

Audio Design Associates Cinema Rhapsody Mach II Digital Home
Theater Preamp Processor



MSRP: $6499 in 2003



WORKS AND SOUNDS FANTASTIC. I purchased this
unit in 2017 adding it to a second system rarely used.
But when I did, it was wonderful



This is a very clean,100% original condition
unit; pulled from working installation
due to HDMI upgrade. Has the latest, last firmware
update for the Mach II: v. 3.63.



ADA made state-of-the-art high-end audiophile systems
and could only be purchased as a part of custom home theater installation.
Unfortunately, they are no longer in business, however there are a plethora of
audiophile service tech that can still assist.

If you don't need HDMI
connectivity and have access to custom remote control technology, you’ll love
this unit. It can be
used as a hi-end standalone fully digital Stereo preamplifier for dreamlike
clarity for two channel listening.



Here’s what ADA had to say:

"The Cinema Rhapsody elegantly manages all
the audio and video outputs of all your home theater source components through
the use of programmable inputs. You can assign any or all of the eight
composite video, or four S-Video video inputs to follow any of the analog or
digital inputs. The Cinema Rhapsody Mach II can also switch up to three
separate component video inputs.

The Cinema Rhapsody Mach II is capable of over
25 processing modes including Dolby Digital EX, Dolby Pro Logic II, DTS,
ES, and DTS Neo 6.

Also featured are THX Ultra 2 enhancements and several
proprietary ADA processing modes including

Quad Hex Bypass and Stereo 5. Any of the
available surround processing modes can be assigned to each of the inputs for
automatic decoding of program material.



There is RS-232 serial interface connectivity
and sophisticated software program provides complete system configuration
including input labeling, bass management, channel level, channel delay, and
tone control settings. System configuration can be stored on disc for future
installations or system recovery. Intuitive front panel knobs provide complete
control of the Cinema Rhapsody including setup and configuration. The Cinema
Rhapsody can also be controlled with the RC-40 remote control or serially with
a computer based control system using provided HEX commands."
