Audison Forza AF M5.11 bit

Audison Forza AF M5.11 bit - 5-Channel DSP Amplifier with Hi-Res Audio up to 40 kHz

The Audison Forza AF M5.11 bit is a compact 5-channel DSP amplifier that combines modern D-Class technology with 24-bit/96-kHz signal processing. High switching frequencies, steep filters, and tightly tolerated components ensure clean, dynamic sound up to 40 kHz (Hi-Res certified). With up to 1,200 W RMS total power, you can power front, rear, and subwoofer from a single enclosure – flexibly even when bridged. Everything is controlled via the bit Drive Software; integration into OEM systems is easy thanks to 8 high/low-level inputs and optical S/PDIF. The B-CON Absolute Volume function from Audison is also supported. At Carhifi.shop you will find suitable accessories and support for installation.
