The NPA20ARC networked power amplifier features a 2 x 10W (1 x 20W mono) audio output at 4 or 8 ohm, with 2ch HDMI ARC and 2ch balanced / unbalanced analogue audio inputs, allowing for simple connection and control from an ARC compatible display, or analogue audio source device.
The NPA20ARC can be powered via PoE or PoE from a compatible network switch, or locally should the switch not support PoE. The unit includes the ability to lower the amplifier power output subject to PoE capabilities, a 31 band DSP with EQ, and audio delay capabilities for lip sync correction with any associated video within the zone.
A daisy-chain audio output with a centralised control feature for linking up to 4x NPA20ARC or NPA20ANA devices, control from the TV via the HDMI ARC connection (CEC), front panel, RS-232, IP, Web-GUI, or 12V trigger gives maximum flexibility for system integration and simplified control.
The NPA20ARC gives installers maximum flexibility for the integration of enhanced audio from within a zone in smaller areas (such as bedrooms) where video is being distributed, saving on cabling from a centralised amplifier; where larger power amplifiers may be considered excessive; or for enhancing voice and audio in meeting spaces.
