Product Overview

Studio Power Meets Tactile Control

The SRI-2 is built into a heavy-duty, anodized aluminum chassis with a desktop-friendly "wedge" design that keeps all controls clearly in view. Unlike most compact interfaces, it features a massive, solid aluminum volume knob with a rubber grip for precise output control. Whether you are tracking vocals in a home studio or managing a professional mixing suite, the SRI-2 provides the transparency of a high-end DAC with the utility of a dedicated monitor management system.

Product Description

Professional Recording Path:

Equipped with two XLR/TRS combo inputs on the front panel, the Fluid Audio SRI-2 makes it easy to swap between microphones, line-level gear, or high-impedance instruments like electric guitars. The Class-A preamps provide 48V phantom power and up to 54dB of clean gain, ensuring that even low-output dynamic mics are captured with maximum detail and minimal noise.

Advanced Monitor Management:

The SRI-2 stands out from its competitors by offering four balanced TRS outputs (two stereo pairs). The dedicated A/B button on the top panel lets you toggle between two pairs of speakers instantly—perfect for checking how your mix translates between different monitors. For critical tracking, the Direct Monitoring knob provides zero-latency monitoring, while the SUM button allows you to center mono inputs in your headphones for a more comfortable recording experience.

High-Power Headphone Output:

The integrated headphone amplifier is one of the most powerful in its class, designed to drive high-impedance studio headphones up to 250 ohms. This ensures you have plenty of volume and clarity during loud tracking sessions or while performing critical edits in a noisy environment.
