New DSP amp coming.... MS-8 competition..
I just got news Audison is coming with an answer to the MS-8
It's called the Prima AP 8.9 bit
It's a 9 channel DSP with 8x50 Watt
More specs or prices or availability is unknown to me atm
I'm not shure if I should post this... but what the heck!!

Interesting... Can't wait to see the explanation (or demo video) @ CES.
Thanks for posting.

Wow...9 channels is perfect! 3-way up front, rear fill, plus sub. I don't know why there isn't an existing processors with 9 or 10 outputs...they all have 8 or less.

If it's QUIET... It's a winner.

Agreed, even being able to run an active center channel setup with 3-way front stage looks like an option.

I wounder if this will spur a wave of 9 channel amps and 9-10 channel DSP's.

Curiousity... will having more channels increase or decrease the chances of noise through the system?

Re: New DSP amp coming.... MS-8 competition..
I'm surprised no one came up with the ability to daisy chain processors. It seems like a simple fix to the desire for multiple channels. Just think... Three way front with three way rear-fill plus sub and center! Good luck finding place for all the amplifiers. :p

Re: New DSP amp coming.... MS-8 competition..
The new Mosconi 4to6 can be daisy chained, but they're not worth the expense.

Re: New DSP amp coming.... MS-8 competition..
What do you mean by "not worth the expense"?
Is it something related to the price or related to the ability to tune a complex system.

Alpine's second gen F#1 Status processors can also be daisy chained.

IIRC, in order to daisy chain them, you have to get the S/PDIF version which is $650 each...so that's $1300 for 12 channels of DSP

Looks like Al's gonna have to start selling oat's to get his 12 channels of processing. :D

The other ones are testing prototype "426" with built in 4x100 class d amp.... Just heard this... 😉

Re: New DSP amp coming.... MS-8 competition..
The picture looks like it's only showing speaker level out, and one phono type connector. So, will the be a preamp or will you have to use its internal amps? If that's the case, maybe the single phono I'm seeing is for subwoofer line level out for use with an external amp?
Guess one could go speaker level out...
Anyway, this is total here say based on not knowing what both sides of this thing looks like.

Yup, the single rca is sub out, I believe it also has the audison AD-link which can be used to drive external audison amps.. not sure if it will work with other amps too since it's their own digital network iirc
And then again, this is more an OEM upgrade unit, not a standalone dsp whith all the bells and whistles( they have better options for that ).. just like the audiotec fischer match units and ms-8
And if you want to go external you can always use an amp with hi-level inputs ;) :P
