Network Amplifer in an Audio Video Distribution System

A method to make a networked amplifier that converts a digital audio signal to and from an analog audio signal used in a video and audio system that uses a TCP/IP LAN (local area network) using TCP/IP as the communication protocol, comprising:

• a network controller that controls the processing of the digital audio signal to and from the LAN network, said controller includes an embedded controller with a processor, memory, and storage and which is programmed to function as a web server;
• a network interface that couples said network controller to the LAN network;
• a digital signal processor (DSP) that converts the digital audio signal to and from the analog audio signal, said DSP includes a pre-amplifier that adjusts and filters the analog audio signal and an amplifier that amplifies the analog audio signal, said DSP further comprises an electronic crossover for frequency division;
• analog sensors that include a microphone used for receiving and or gathering control information that enables internal auto adjustment by frequency separation to enhance speaker protection and performance from said network speaker nodes surroundings;
• and
• an analog driver circuitry that couples to said DSP and provides the external connection for the analog audio signal.
