Introduction
The daudio ASP/AMP is a 2 channel high quality amplifier ith integrated active
filter, specifically designed to let the loudspeaker sho hat it is capable of. It gets
the very best out of the loudspeaker and no additional po er amplifier is required.
For a stereo system you need a pair, one ASP/AMP for each loudspeaker, a better
channel separation is not possible. To complete your system of daudio ASP/AMPs
and loudspeakers, all you need is a high quality source ith volume control.
The AMP (amplifier part) is designed to meet the needs of customers ho demand
the utmost in control and musicality from their daudio loudspeakers. It contains a
po er supply hich can deliver a total of 400W continuous and 600W peak po er.
The amplifier modules are each able to deliver 250W to 4Ω, 180W to 8Ω and a peak
current of 14A. As a result, even speaker impedances of 2Ω are no problem. The
state-of-the-art amplifier technology achieves an efficiency of 92%. Therefore no
heavy heat sinks are required, the small aluminum enclosure is sufficient to prevent
the temperature from rising too high.
The amplifiers are equipped ith special input stages developed by daudio. These
input buffers/preamps have an almost immeasurable distortion of 0.00003%. They
are equipped ith a separate discrete po er supply. The discrete po er supply is
much faster and more silent than the standard po er supplies hich are found In
virtually all audio electronics even if they are of top quality. The result is an amplifier
that possesses all the qualities needed to both control heavy lo -impedance oofers
as to offer utmost sophistication for the highest frequencies.
The ASP is the active filter for the loudspeakers. The term ASP for the active filter as
a conscious choice for our state-of-the-art analog counterpart of the ell-kno n DSP
(digital signal processing) and stands for analog signal processor. The filter is
equipped ith its o n discrete po er supply, just like the input buffers/preamps. The
daudio ASP has been designed to separate the analog signals from your source into
the lo er frequencies belo 150Hz and the mid and high frequencies above. At the
same time, equalizing and dipole correction are being applied to guarantee a smooth
frequency response hen reproducing the sound through the daudio loudspeakers.
The dipole operation of the daudio loudspeaker implies that this frequency
response ill be almost identical across the hole spectrum, even at listening angles
off-axis from the loudspeaker. Aside the loudspeaker a eakened copy of the sound
ill exist, from lo to high frequencies even for the bass, hich is exceptional. This
so-called 'radiation behavior' ill ensure that your listening room ill be irradiated
optimally and ith uncolored sound. Any here in your room, even outside the
preferred listening position, a nice tonal balance ill be heard. The daudio ASP is a
vital component to achieve this.
