The Greater Divine Supernal is the evolution of the iconic and award winning Divine intelligent loudspeaker.  It has all the same functionality that made the Divine so popular, then builds on it to attract new fans in the studio monitor world, where the accuracy of audio reproduction becomes more important, and an abundance of usuable volume level is required.

The Supernal further enhances the Greater Divine functionality to produce the current state of the art of intelligent studio monitor speakers for the professional.

DSP Design
The Supernal features Glensounds in house developed DSP platform 'GEM'.  We use this not only to provide the Dante networking functionality, but also to provide a host of additional DSP based functionality.

  • Intercom mode
  • Semi-parametric EQ
  • Multiple presets for room size, mounting position, and music source type
  • Configurable compressor


Fast Networking
Deal with large networks without problems thanks to a 1GB network interface.

Receives 8 Different Network Sources
Our GEM platform allows the processing of multiple network flows so all 8 network inputs can be from separate network locations.

Headphone Output (Or Line Level)
There is a 6.35mm stereo jack socket for connecting headphones.  This is on a break jack to mute the speaker.  The output can also be set to line level to use as a 2 channel analogue output.

USB-C
There is a USB-C connection that provides 2 input channels to the Supernal, and also receives 2 output channels to the connected device.

The Cabinet
An all new larger enclosure.  The Greater Divine Supernal is about twice the size of the Divine, but the good news - it's still a solid aluminium casting.  This gives us a sold, stable, non resonating platform to work from for acoustic design. And as we designed the casting, it is of course beautifully curved. 

As we expect the Greater Divine Supernal will also be used by front of house engineers and outside broadcast, it is designed for a tough life of regulalry being moved.  The solid aluminium will give you the confidence that being moved and receiving the odd knock will not be a problem. 

For mounting there is 100MM VESA mounts on the rear. 

Porting
Internally, the Greater Divine has a stunning and elegant bass reflex port.  Many months of tuning and sampling with 3D printed models, has fine tuned the available space internally to produce a snappy extended bass response. 

More Network Power
There is now a PoE+ power design, with class D amplifiers.  When the Greater Divine is presented with PoE+ from the switch, the amplifier will have 23W RMS.  This gives a significant injention of power on tap from a network speaker.  The Supernal will still operate with a 10w power output if connected to a standard PoE Switch

Even More Local Power
We have added a 24VDC power input via a 4 pin XLR, so if PoE is not available the Greater Divine Supernal can still be powered.  When there is a local power connection the Supernal can realise its full power potential with an output now of 28w. 

Analogue Inputs + Network Inputs
There are 8 network audio sources available, but we have added two XLRs on the rear for analogue inputs (also routed to Dante).  We therefore have local power and local analogue inputs so the Greater Divine can also act as a traditional active monitor speaker.

Bi-Amplified Twin Drivers
The Greater Divine is a 2 way speaker.  There is a separate amplifier for each driver and a digital crossover.

Plus All Of The Great Original Functionality Of The Divine

Internally a Digital Signal Processor (DSP) takes careful care of the audio signals, including state of the art compression and limiting circuits, while a microprocessor provides full setup and control via our Windows application GlenController including the ability to group multiple Greater Divines together and control their level simultaneously.

The Greater Divine Supernallcan receive up to 8 Dante (AES67 compliant) audio over IP (AoIP) inputs. These inputs can be selected by the user on a large clear front panel select switch. The 8 audio inputs can also be easily mixed together and their individual levels adjusted.

A priority system is provided to allow one (or more) of the inputs to automatically duck another. This can be very useful if you want to monitor one source but also listen to another when audio is present, such as sending show relay to dressing rooms in a theatre but having the stage manager's call and building fire alarm take precedence when they’re active.

Standard microphone stand threads are also provided in the base for an alternative support solution. (5/8" 27TPI & 3/8" 16TPI)

Different preset EQs and an LF cut can all be set in the user menu to allow the Divine to be used for a variety of applications.
The Greater Divine Supernal is so much more than just another powered loudspeaker.
