Sonance SonAmp DSP8-130 MK III Digital DSP Amplifier

This DSP 8-130 MKIII amplifier from Sonance replaces the MKII model with a new micro processor and rich DSP features. It is the same powerhouse that Sonance customers turn to for their premium residential and commercial projects, with smoother playback and improved features.

This MKIII amplifier offers a powerful audiophile grade Class D amplification, is rated and certified at 8 Ohms, 4 Ohms and stable to 2 Ohms providing 8 x 130w of power at 8 Ohms as well as game changing features, audiophile grade circuitry, robust power and unrivalled installation flexibility.

The Class D design is 93% efficient for maximum power output with minimal power usage and meets EU power saving standards.

At the heart of the SONAMP DSP amplifier is the SonARC (Sonance Advanced Room Correction) web interface featuring 50+ Sonance designed DSP pre-sets, preloaded for effortless DSP without the need for additional hardware or calibration. A built in 10 band parametric EQ allows for additional DSP customisation.

At the core of this DSP amplifier is a powerful 24 bit/96K DAC capable of handling a full 4608 Kbps of audio data. Most amplifiers have processing limitations that constrain the audio output and limit the maximum amount of pass through information to 1411 Kbps which compromises the quality of the listening experience. This Mark III enables listeners to enjoy the full clarity and output of whatever audio passes through, from MP3 to full High Resolution Audio.

It allows audio systems to be future proofed.

Please note: A firmware updated should be completed prior to use.
