CI 8-150 DSP
The CI 8-150 DSP is NAD’s flagship distribu
tion amplifier and designed to deliver the
most sonically refined power available today with the stability and durability necessary
to reside in a rack space. The HybridDigital™ nCore amplifier produces 8 x 150 watts per
channel @ 8 Ohms and bridgeable to 4 X 280 watts @ 8 Ohms. Designed to fit in a 2U
rack space, the CI 8-150 DSP delivers audiophile level performance capable of offering
highly detailed sound to the most demanding reference loudspeakers. In addition to a
dual bus system and analog inputs, the CI 8-150 DSP offers a pair of optical and digital
inputs.
The CI 8-150 DSP is a network controlled amplifier which allows the installer to
configure and calibrate via a web based user interface. The User Interface offers access
to a multi channel digital signal processing (DSP) providing detailed equalisation control.
In addition, the UI offers insight into temperature and power status, as well as basic
troubleshooting functions like power cycling, factory resetting and updating.
The CI 8-150 DSP delivers high resolution amplification, designed for today’s rack mount
applications.
