Sonamp® 875D SE Application Notes

Feature: The 875 D SE is the only digital amplifier that can be used with standard autoformer volume controls.

Benefit:

• It can be carried by installers whose primary focus is simple, volume-control based distributed audio systems.

Feature: The 875D SE is the only digital amplifier that is bridgeable.

Benefit:

•A single amplifier SKU can be used for different types of installations: In 8-channel mode for distributed audio applications, in bridged (4-channel) mode for high-power home theater or large room applications.

•Reduces the number of amplifier SKUs a dealer needs to carry.

Feature: The 875D SE combines digital audio circuitry with four analog power supplies.

Benefit:

•The proven analog power supply technology delivers plenty of current when the amp is asked to drive multiple speakers hard.

•Installers who have used the amp agree that “it rocks”.

•Audiophiles generally agree that analog power supplies make for a better-sounding amplifier.

Feature: The installer-ready RS-232 interface is simple and intuitive.

Benefit:

•The 875D SE can be confidently installed by advanced system integrators without having to hire an outside programmer, saving costs and simplifying the installation process.

•Serial control code strings are brief, won’t tie-up the data line and are listed in the instruction manual.

•Ready-to-use AMX and Crestron control modules can be downloaded from the Sonance website at no charge.

•The amplifier can provide real-time monitoring of current performance parameters to a 3rd-party controller via the RS-232 connection.

Feature: BBE® Sound Enhancement circuitry with individual controls for each zone

Benefit:

•Improves the sound quality of voice and music at low volumes; ideal for distributed audio systems.

Feature: Left, right, aux and direct inputs for each channel

Benefit:

•Dramatically increases operational flexibility. For example, a single 875D SE could be utilized with four channels powering distributed audio speakers (via the left & right inputs) and the other four channels in bridged configuration, powering two large audiophile speakers (via direct inputs).

•DIP switches allow each channel to be individually configured.
