DARK16O - Analog output only version of DARK1616 on XLR'sThe DARK16O is a versatile break out box for receiving analogue audio from a network utilising the Dante and AES67 audio over IP (AoIP) protocols. In total there are 16 channels of audio being received from the AoIP network and converted via low noise DACs (Digital to Analogue Converters) to balanced analogue outputs. For ease of cabling, audio outputs are presented as balanced circuits on Neutrik XLRs. Being designed for resilient broadcast
The DARK16O is a versatile break out box for receiving analogue audio from a network utilising the Dante and AES67 audio over IP (AoIP) protocols.In total there are 16 channels of audio being received from the AoIP network and converted via low noise DACs (Digital to Analogue Converters) to balanced analogue outputs.
For ease of cabling, audio outputs are presented as balanced circuits on Neutrik XLRs.
Being designed for resilient broadcast applications, the DARK16O features both redundant power supplies and redundant Dante network links with link status GPOs (general purpose outputs (solid state relays)). Both primary and secondary network links are provided with both magnetic (copper RJ45) and fibre (SFP) interface connections. The Dante system itself provides a completely transparent redundant link system which means that if the DARK16O lost its primary link circuit, the secondary link would automatically take over with no loss of audio.
The primary and secondary network interfaces are routed internally via a network switch. It is possible to set this switch to work as a traditional network switch instead of the default redundant mode. This means that there would be just one link to the Dante/ AES67 network and the other connections of the switch could have other Dante or network devices connected to them. As with all Dante devices, once set up, DARK16O units can be directly connected with each other with no external network hardware.
Features
• Network audio interface for Dante/ AES67
• 16 analogue audio outputs
• Outputs are on rear panel XLRs
• Supports up to 192k sampling
• Low noise DACs
• Redundant network links (Fibre and Copper)
• Redundant Mains power supplies
• 19" 1RU Subrack

A great line of sight phone holder with a few flaws.
Overall this does the job and is priced affordably the pros and cons are as follows:
Pros:
Strong magnet
Solid construction
Great for line of sight
Charges well
Cons:
Charging cable is not long enough to route inside my car
holder tends to droop down slightly with my phone on it (Pixel 7), not so much that it's failing but just not holding it's set position

Does not swivel and slow charger
As mentioned in another review, you cannot change the angle of the phone so it faces the other way since it does not swivel. Wish I wish I would have known that before placing it. Also, the charger is REALLY slow. It’s slower than the MagSafe chargers I have in my house. I’m not sure if this is defective. I only used it on my way home from work, and I will be returning it.

Almost perfect
Style: Screen+Charger
Solid mount. I’ve tried other ones but they don’t sit as nicely as this one. It also has a lot of adjustments to allow for using it any way you need it to so it is very versatile. The magnet strength is really good and holds my phone really well. Sometimes it feels too strong which I guess is a good thing. The charging works well but I wish the cable was a little longer

Great Phone Mount
Style: Screen+Charger
Works great! It’s been a fantastic upgrade for my car. The installation was quick and seamless, and it fits perfectly with the Tesla interior. The wireless charging stays fast and stable. I highly recommend it.

Almost Perfect But With Workaround it Rocks
Style: Dash+Screen+Qi2 Charger, Style: Dash+Screen+Qi2 Charger
This works almost perfectly in my Tesla, with one small tweak for hot summer conditions. It holds my phone very well overall—I position it slightly off-center at about the 10 o’clock position. However, with a larger phone like the Galaxy S25 Ultra, the combination of weight and summer heat can cause the mount to slowly rotate as the suction cup loses some grip.
I found a simple fix that works extremely well: applying a small amount of rosin (the same kind used for violin bows) to the friction point where the rotating arm meets the suction base. That added grip completely solved the issue. Now the mount stays exactly where I position it, even in the heat.
Solid product, and with that minor adjustment, it performs exactly how I need it to.
