Next-proaudio has announced the M804DSP a class-D 4-channel matrix amplifier that delivers an output of 4x 750W from a 2U-high full-rack format, for driving both conventional low impedance (2Ω to 16Ω) loudspeakers and high impedance (70V/100V) transformer coupled loudspeakers or any mix of the two.

The unit’s onboard full matrix, DSP engine can be configured to suit a wide range of tasks, without the need for additional equipment, and to drive a wide range of loudspeaker systems.

The close integration of processing and amplification allows the DSP to monitor and adapt to amplifier behaviour, making dynamics processing more accurate and effective than that typically achieved with separate components. The active PFC (Power Factor Correction) power supply technology enables universal AC mains operation and delivers consistent, regulated power worldwide.

The M804DSP can be accessed via Wi-Fi using a built-in Wireless-Access-Point (WAP) or via Ethernet for simple connection easy configuration, controlling and powering any speaker system. The easy-to-use web-based interface allows remote control of all DSP functions, as well as monitoring of all amplifier vital functions from PC, tablet or smartphone, regardless of operating system. No software is necessary as it is onboard the M804DSP.

The integrated web interface controls a powerful signal processing engine extending the level of functionality. The full matrix Digital Signal Processing (DSP) can be configured to suit a wide range of tasks, without the need for additional equipment – from processing input sources, managing up to four zones, correcting up to four independent rooms, to fine-tuning four loudspeaker outputs.
