Powersoft X8 D Overview

Designed to deliver the output voltage required by the latest generation of high-performance loudspeakers, the Powersoft X8 DSP+D delivers superb audio quality and expands the concept of the power amplification platform to include complete loudspeaker management—including all signal processing functions—in a single, lightweight unit. The X Series is an amplifier that raises the bar in amplifier platform design and functionality, setting a new standard for quality and usability

The power supply is suitable for Single Phase, Bi-Phase, or Three Phase operation from 85 up to 460 VAC without the need of selection. True Three Phase load balancing is directly achievable without any complex load assignment in the power distribution system. Powersoft X8 DSP+D provides four fully processable channels and selectable inputs from analog sources as well as digital AES3 and two redundant Dante ports. Channel mixing and routing can be easily performed thanks to the integrated low latency DSP. Completely integrated into ArmoníaPlus, the Powersoft X8 DSP+D interface is also available for smartphone and tablet, providing a new experience in power management.

Innovative Power Supply
  • Suitable for Single-Phase, Bi-Phase, or Three-Phase operation from 85 to 460 VAC, the X8 power supply provides maximum flexibility and versatility in any power distribution design.
  • Power Load Balancing with Power Factor Correction enhances efficiency in power distribution.
  • Smart Rails Management increases efficiency by means of the dynamic rails modulation.
  • Powersoft’s Green Audio Power technologies improve efficiency and minimize the ‘carbon footprint’ and the operational costs by recycling the reactive power of the speakers
New Standard of Quality and Usability
  • Powersoft’s renowned sound accuracy
  • Flexible routing/mixing provided by the internal 8x8 input/output matrix, allows the user to mix and route analog and digital I/O.
  • Easy plug-and-play Dante networking allows easy routing of the signal from any node within the network to Powersoft X8.
  • 8 input channels with physical analog and digital AES3 connectors and redundant Dante connection provide maximum flexibility.
  • Improved reliability thanks to the customizable input backup policy that allows to automatically switch input source in case of signal failure.
  • Complete user interface integrated into ArmoníaPlus.
  • WiFi remote monitoring through mobile device.
Highly Integrated
  • Top-grade DSP with high dynamic range and extensive feature set.
  • Multi-stage signal processing: innovative solutions for modeling speakers behavior and power handling.
  • Input and output IIR, FIR, IIR+FIR equalizers and raised-cosine filters.
  • Complete sets of limiters: peak, RMS voltage, RMS current, and TruePower
  • Compensation of the speaker cable losses with Active Damping Control
More Reliable
Full protection circuitry: over/under AC voltage; troublesome signals (clipping, VHF, long-term RMS); DC; thermal; short circuit; mute at power on/off.
