ACP-AXIS16
Extract audio directly from smart displays and embedded applications and deliver it over Dante and AES67 networks. AXIS enables clean, scalable audio integration without traditional AV receivers and is the ideal distributed audio solution for both residential and commercial applications.
The Hyperion Axis16 is a multi-channel eARC audio processor designed to extract high-bitrate immersive Dolby Atmos & DTS-HD audio directly from a display and distribute it across Dante and AES67 networks. Purpose-built for extracting audio from smart displays and streaming apps, Axis16 enables immersive and multi-zone audio distribution without the need for a traditional AV receiver at the display location.
Supporting up to 16 Dante/AES67 output channels which includes either 16 discrete speaker feeds or 14 discrete + 2 downmixed channels, Axis16 integrates seamlessly with the Hyperion or Director ecosystem of networked amplifiers. The onboard DSP provides an EQ, upmixing, crossover management and an advanced speaker distance and level tuning option available exclusively on the Axis16.
With a compact form factor, PoE capability, and standards-based audio networking, Axis16 simplifies installation while delivering scalable performance for residential theaters, conference rooms, hospitality environments, and other display-centric AV applications.

Display Driven Networked Audio - Axis16 decodes and converts immersive Dolby Atmos and DTS-HD multi-channel audio into discrete Dante or AES67 network streams. This enables high-quality, object-based surround sound from a display to be distributed to Hyperion or Director series amplifiers, without requiring a traditional AV receiver at the source location.
Optional Stereo Downmix - Axis16 can be configured to optionally provides a stereo downmix on channels 15 & 16. This allows immersive content to be routed to secondary zones for stereo applications while preserving the full multi-channel mix for the primary listening environment.
Powerful DSP Tuning - Axis16 features an intuitive web-based interface for system configuration and audio tuning. Easily manage decoding modes, speaker configuration, EQ, crossover settings, delay, and output levels directly from a browser, streamlining setup and enabling precise system optimization without external software.
Digital Audio Inputs with Signal-Sense Switching - In addition to eARC, Axis16 includes digital coaxial and optical inputs with automatic signal detection. When audio is present on the digital input, the unit seamlessly switches sources, ensuring uninterrupted audio distribution and providing installation flexibility for a variety of source devices.
Dedicated Dante and Control Connections - Dedicated network ports for audio transport and control provide greater system flexibility and network management. By separating Dante/AES67 audio traffic from control communication, Axis16 supports cleaner network segmentation, improved reliability, and easier integration into structured enterprise AV infrastructures.
CEC Volume Control - Axis series supports HDMI CEC pass-through volume control, allowing users to manage audio levels using the TV’s native remote control. This enables seamless, unified operation without the need for additional remotes or control programming.
