Audison AFC8.14B 8-Channel Amplifier With 14 Channel DSP 800W | AF C8.14 BIT

Equipped with a high-performance 32-bit digital signal processor (DSP) clocked at 147 MHz and 24-bit AD and DA converters, capable of maximizing the acoustic performance of your Car Audio system. Each output channel features: an adjustable Graphic/Parametric equalization group, electronic crossover adjustable in 1Hz steps and Butterworth/Linkwitz/Bessel/Chebyshev/QLP filters with slopes from 6 to 48 dB and a digital time delay line.

There are adjustments that can be selected by the user who can interact with the AF C8.14 bit via the DRC AC remote control device. The AF C8.14 bit can be interfaced to any standard system, even on cars equipped with an integrated audio processor, as thanks to the de-equalization and analysis function the AF C8.14 bit will manage a flat signal from its OEM source. It also ensures interfacing to devices equipped with the Maestro/ADC protocol which makes this product unique in its category.
