Audison Prima Forza AP F8.9 Bit - 8 Channel Amplifier & 9 Channel DSP

The new AP F8.9 bit is the ideal for the most demanding integration projects, where high power is required along with the flexibility of the nine-channel DSP. The word “Forza”, meaning “Power” in Italian, well describes the 8 x 85 W RMS and 4 x 260 in bridge mode (RMS @ 4Ω), with an optimal power to size ratio. The integrated processor is equipped with a dedicated software and 7 pre-configured presets for a Plug & Sound experience. Thanks to the built-in Audison USS technology (Universal Speakers Simulator), AP F8.9 bit can also be correctly connected to head-units with “speaker load detection” function that monitors the presence of a low-impedance load to enable the audio outputs.

Full DA - Full Digital Audio

Pure digital signal transfer with a resolution up to 24 bit / 48 kHz.

BIT DRIVE

Auto tuning by Audison bit Tune and communication with bit Drive portal.

DE-EQ - De Equalization

De-equalization function to “flatten” any equalization applied by default by OEM sources.

USS technology

USS technology allows Prima amplifiers to work with head-units featuring the “speaker load detection” circuit
