Audiomatica Clio X 14

DBS Audio are pleased to announce Clio X 14, the latest hardware and software version of Audiomatica's USB-based Clio  24-bit electro-acoustics and electronics test and measuring system, which is ideal for loudspeaker measurements and production-line quality control. Clio X 14 replaces their highly successful Clio 12, with a completely new USB interface and new software which add yet more features in the bargain.

 

Clio X 14, with new Fw-03 twin-channel USB interface, is compatible with Windows from XP to 11 and is upgradable to the even more versatile Clio X 14 QC by means of a software add-on. 

 

Clio is the industry standard for loudspeaker production line quality control and loudspeaker design and development in laboratories and factories all over the globe. It is use by many  leading hif-fi and pro-audio brands, in addition to universities, custom AV and Pro Audio installers. That's why Clio is the ideal solution in so many of these applications - and more.

Automatica's Clio Pocket is a miniature precision portable measurement system, based on their many years of experience in designing audio measuring systems. It loses nothing in accuracy over Clio 14, only omitting a second channel and Clio 14's more esoteric measuring features, such as room acoustics, intelligibility, wow and flutter,  and QC add on, etc. 

 

Clio Pocket's tiny CP-01 audio interface is so compact that it can literally fit into a trouser pocket.

 

Totally flexible for portable use, it requires only a single USB2 connection to a computer for the generation and acquisition of signals and supply of its DC power.

 

The CP-01 is a lab-grade instrument, at a budget price and, just like the well-established Clio Fw-02 (Clio 12) and new Clio x 14, , it self- calibrates to stored factory settings, via the matching software to ensure highly accuracy  and repeatability.

Clio Pocket is presented in a protective plastics carry case and includes a MIC-02 (Lite version), phantom-powered electret microphone and all the connecting leads required, including a 2.7m low-noise- microphone cable.

 

So, with the addition of a small Windows or Apple Mac laptop, Clio Pocket makes a handy and extremely accurate portable audio measuring system.

Audiomatica have put their many years of expertise into Clio Pocket . The software contains the most useful measurements and post-processing features, which loudspeaker and audio engineers need on a day to day basis. Bought by many of our professional Clio 11 and 12 customers as an additional measuring system, it is also well within financial reach of enthusiastic amateur designer and DIY speaker builders. 

 

Clio software is renowned in professional circles for its versatile measuring suite, powerful post-processing options and intuitive graphic user interface.

Clio 3 under Windows and Mac Os

 

Clio Pocket 3 software  will run under Windows (up to W11) and Mac up to OS14. (It is a 64 bit application compiled for Intel processor, and may be run under Apple Silicon Macs using Rosetta 2 AOT translation.)

Pocket is ideal for a wide variety loudspeaker measurements, and has had some great press. Click below to read  Joe D'Appolito's excellent review in Audioxpress Magazine:  

Note: for tests on loudspeakers (other than impedance) , an external power amplifier, such as the Model 5 QC test box) is required. As with Clio X14, frequency response and impedance files may be exported to be used by loudspeaker design software for crossover and overall loudspeaker design.
