Read full product description
S8 DSP processes audio at 96 kHz / 24-bit resolution and has received Hi-Res certification from the Japan Audio Society (JAS), confirming its exceptional audio performance. The 32-bit DSP manages 6 high/low-level analog input channels, one digital coaxial input, and 8 output channels, offering maximum configuration flexibility. The SPDIF coaxial input allows digital connection to Hi-Res players for superior listening quality. Each output channel includes level control, a 15-pole parametric equalizer, time delays, and a crossover filter. The 7-band parametric equalizer on the input signal ensures a flat response from OEM sources, which often have exaggerated low-frequency emphasis.
