Product Description
S8 DSP
The ultra-compact S8 DSP is?the perfect solution for integrating any OEM source?into your audio upgrade project?for cars, motorcycles, and boats! S8 DSP is a distilled essence of technology at the service of the highest audio quality in a?corrosion-free case cast in metal and composite materials.
S8 DSP processes the audio signal with?96 kHz / 24-bit?resolution and has obtained the Hi-Res certification?from the JAS (Japan Audio Society), an acknowledgment that certifies the?extreme level of audio performance achieved. The powerful 32-bit DSP manages?6 high/low-level analog input channels,?one digital coaxial input,?and 8 output channels,?offering maximum freedom of configuration to the specialist. The SPDIF coaxial input is ideal for digital connection with a Hi-Res player,?a solution that allows for maximum listening quality. For each of the eight output channels we have a level control, the 15-pole parametric equalizer, time delays, and crossover filter available. The 7-band parametric equalizer of the input signal?allows obtaining a flat response from OEM sources, which often have an exaggerated emphasis on the low frequency.General Specifications
