icOn 5 Single-ended

The unit also boasts eight pairs of RCA sockets with customizable functionality for users and has remarkably precise volume adjustment capabilities (spanning 136 steps within an 83 dB range). I find it hard to imagine that I’ll manage to create a superior audio control unit in the future—perhaps only a distinct one. If you need mixed RCA & XLR sockets, there is a version with 2 XLR (with single-ended connection) + 2 RCA inputs and 1 RCA + 1 XLR (can be electronically balanced) outputs as well.
