Trinnov Altitude CI Networked AV Preamplifier – 2RU

The Trinnov AltitudeCI 2RU is a networked AV preamplifier designed for advanced home cinema and custom integration systems. It combines Trinnov’s proprietary acoustic processing with modern Audio over IP technologies. As a result, it delivers highly precise, immersive sound with exceptional flexibility and scalability.

Built on a software-driven architecture, the AltitudeCI adapts to a wide range of installations. It supports configurations from high-end stereo to large multi-row private cinemas. In addition, it integrates analog, digital, and networked audio within a single platform. Therefore, it offers a future-proof solution for demanding projects.

Native Dante and AES67 network audio

The AltitudeCI supports both Dante and AES67 protocols natively. This allows seamless integration with professional audio systems and modern networked amplifiers. In addition, it enables direct connection to devices such as the Amplitude16. As a result, it simplifies system design while maintaining high precision.

Advanced network architecture

The unit features three independent Ethernet ports, including two SFP ports for fiber or copper connections. These ports support redundant streams, network separation, or switch mode operation. Therefore, the system remains stable and adaptable in complex installations.

Scalable channel configuration

The AltitudeCI supports configurations from 8 to 32 channels, adjustable in 2-channel steps. In addition, a 64-channel version is planned for large-scale systems. Because of this, it scales easily from compact media rooms to reference-level private cinemas and professional environments.

Flexible system integration

The processor includes 8 balanced analog outputs, AES/EBU digital I/O, and full AoIP support. It also features a powerful routing matrix. As a result, users can combine analog, digital, and network audio without external converters or additional hardware.

Immersive audio and Trinnov technologies

The AltitudeCI supports Dolby Atmos, DTS:X Pro, Auro-3D, and IMAX Enhanced formats. It also includes Trinnov’s Optimizer™, Remapping™, and WaveForming™ technologies. Therefore, it delivers accurate object placement, improved spatial coherence, and controlled low-frequency performance.

Wide range of system applications

The AltitudeCI adapts to many system types. It supports stereo setups with multiple subwoofers, immersive layouts such as 7.1.4, and complex systems like 9.4.6 or larger. In addition, it scales to multi-row theaters and DCI-grade installations. As a result, it meets the needs of both enthusiasts and professional integrators.

Designed for full ecosystem integration

The unit integrates easily with control platforms such as Crestron, Savant, Control4, and RTI. It supports IP, RS232, and IR control, along with trigger outputs. Therefore, it fits seamlessly into smart home and cinema environments.

Modern user interface and remote access

The updated Trinnov interface includes guided setup tools and an advanced expert mode. It works across mobile and desktop platforms and supports remote system access. As a result, installation, calibration, and maintenance become faster and more efficient.

Front-panel touchscreen and usability

A built-in 5-inch touchscreen provides real-time system monitoring and quick access to key settings. This allows installers to check system status without external devices. Therefore, on-site setup and diagnostics become more convenient.

Compact 2RU chassis design

The AltitudeCI uses a compact 2RU chassis that matches other Trinnov components. It fits easily into rack installations and maintains a clean, uniform appearance. As a result, it suits both technical rooms and visible luxury installations.
