Orlando, FL (June 12, 2022) - Audison announced the Forza family of amplifiers - the culmination of years of research and development into DSP use in vehicles. Using our All Channels Driven” design approach, and our Fully Bridgeable” philosophy, these amplifiers give Audison dealers more tools to exceed their customers expectations.
 
Forza is a family of 9 amplifiers - 5 bit” DSP amplifiers with system control capability - and four companion” amplifiers which can be managed by the DSP section of the bit amplifiers.
 
The first model is the bit 5-channel AF M5.11 bit - the most powerful 5-channel DSP amplifier Audison has ever made. 100 watts to four channels (4Ω) plus 600 watts to the subwoofers (2Ω), over 1200 watts of RMS power available All Channels Driven, and with the most flexible DSP section Audison has offered.
 
Dealers use DSPs for three things - OEM integration, system management, and acoustic tuning”, said Ken Ward, International Technical Marketing Manager for Elettromedia Sri, parent company of Audison. We have made significant improvements to each functional area, so that our dealer technicians can overcome challenges more quickly and efficiently than ever. We kept the same approximate form factor as our previous line of DSP amps, which were very popular sizes our dealers preferred.”
 
The amplifiers are configured with a new software application, Audison bit Drive. Weve done training sessions here at Knowlegefest, and our new bit Drive software has been a huge hit with dealers!”, said Ward.
 
The Forza bit line will consist of five bit models and four companion models:
AF M5.11 bit will ship initially.
 
The AF C8.9 bit and the M12.14 bit will ship later this year.
 
The four companion amps - the M6 D, the M4 D, the C4 D, and the M1 D - will also ship later this year.
 
The last two bit models - the C4.10 bit and the M8.14 bit - will round out the product line.
The bit Drive software is immediately familiar to Audison dealers, but has a modern design and advanced tools”, said Ward. This is the software which is going to control our future products - its designed to be future-proof.”
 
Audison Forza amplifiers boast more power than ever, with the audiophile sound of the latest-generation Audison D-Class technology. This is combined with native DSP working at 24 bit/96 kHz, extending the audio band up to 40 kHz and earning the coveted High Resolution certification.
 
Fully Bridgeable: Bridging amplifier channels to more than double the power is a time-honored technique which Audison includes in every Forza multichannel amplifier. Fully Bridgeable means that every channel pair can be bridged, without exclusion, letting Audison dealers design and build exactly the system youre looking for!
 
Dual Power Design is a new design element - Forza amplifiers have two independent power supplies: the audio amplifier power supply is loosely regulated, which allows superior dynamic performance at this price point The DSP power supply is stiffly regulated, which maintains DSP microprocessor operation even during lower-voltage transient states (i.e., start/stop operation).
 
High Res Certified - SPDIF digital wasnt designed to control volume levels, and many implementations compromise the potential dynamic range. Absolute Volume maximizes the SPDIF bit depth, delivering uncompromised dynamic range from compatible digital sources like Audison B-CON.
 
Audisons completely-new bit Drive PC software can analyze, route, and correct the signal in completely new ways – now you can measure, mix, and finally tune the sound with one powerful tool! The new Graphical User Interface simplifies every control and function, integrating acoustic measurement, and ensuring efficient tuning and great sound!
 
The Acoustic RTA is integrated into the equalizer graph, and is compatible with your 16-bit USB microphone or sound card. The Final EQ function allows final equalization without damaging the delicate left/right frequency relationships.
 
Forzas eight analog inputs, plus an optical Toslink digital input, support total connectivity even with the most complex OEM systems. If more analog inputs are required, the optional F4IN expansion card adds four additional analog input channels!
 
If a Coaxial SPDIF or a second Toslink SPDIF input is needed, the optional F2O expansion card can be used.
 
Up to 14 DSP outputs allows Forzas DSP section to manage a larger system easily.
 
Audisons classic de-EQ process is joined by de-Time and de-Phase capabilities, enabling sound restoration in nearly every OEM system., The electrical signal analysis ensures proper integration and correction for each input and output channel.
The built-in universal speaker simulation technology (USS) yields maximum compatibility with any OEM Source, without muting or instability.

January 15, 2020 -- The Audison design team, headquartered in the Potenza Picena (Italy), spent a long time planning and perfecting the new SR line. After numerous listening tests in a double-blind configuration on a significant sample of professionals and enthusiasts, the R&D team decided to adopt a new D-class technology called ADT (Audison D-Class Technology) for the entire SR amplifier line. This technology made it possible to reduce the size of the amplifiers while totally preserving the audio performance that characterize each Audison project.

The New SR Line consists of these four models:

  • SR 4.300   MAP $ 399.99   85w x 4 @ 4ohms
  • SR 4.500   MAP $ 499.99   130w x 4 @ 4ohms
  • SR 5.600   MAP $ 549.99   75w x 4 @ 4ohms, and 550w x 1 @ 1 ohm
  • SR 1.500   MAP $ 399.99   500w x 1 @ 4ohms, 800w x 1 @ 2ohms, 1000w x 1 @ 1 ohm
  • Optional VCR-S1 Remote Volume Control for both models.

Some New Features include:

Built in USS (Universal Speaker Simulator)

When using the high-level inputs, the SR amplifiers can also be appropriately connected to OEM sources featuring the “speaker load detection” function that monitor the presence of a low-impedance load to enable audio outputs.

Complete Controls on Top Panel

As per tradition, the SR amplifiers confirm their vocation for versatility by including on all models a complete filter section, suitable for any type of audio system configuration. The controls, protected by a satin-finish aluminum panel, are located on the amplifier upper panel, to be easily reached from above even after the product has been installed. When the system includes an Audison bit processor, the filter section can be totally excluded.

Limitless Connectivity

All models are equipped with high-level balanced inputs for connection to the OEM Head Unit speakers output and low RCA level for the after-market ones. When the high level input is used, the ART function (Automatic Remote Turn-On / Off) can be enabled to control the switching on of the amplifiers with the head unit switch-on button. In addition, there is a remote IN / OUT socket to allow the control of multiple cascaded amplifiers switch on when required.

The SR 1.500, SR 4.300 and 4.500 models recreate the PRE-OUT signal by using the Speaker-IN input to interface it with OEM sources only equipped with amplified outputs, allowing the system expansion.

Built in Crossovers

Lo-Pass and Hi-Pass 12 dB adjustable (50 Hz to 3200 Hz) filters, providing the ability to build a front + rear system, a multichannel – woofer + tweeter system or a powerful sub + front system.

On the SR 5.600 & SR 1.500 models

24 dB continuous adjustable (50 to 500 Hz) Lo-Pass subwoofer filter. SUBSONIC filter (24 dB - 25 Hz), removes very low subsonic frequencies from music signal to avoid damages to the subwoofer.

January 9, 2020 -- Just as the virtuous performer holds the absolute mastery of the instrument and the technique connected to it, the bit One HD Virtuoso features unique skills dedicated to the most ambitious OEM Integration projects and excels in the uncompromising Hi-End systems.

Following the success of the EDUCAR trainings at Knowledgefest this year, Elettromedia-USA has announced a series of educational dealer trainings to be taught by Jason Kranitz of Kingpin University, and assisting Jason will be Lance Doss of EM-USA. The classes will be held at Kingpin University located in Las Vegas, NV.

The schedule includes “Fundamentals of Sound” to be held on September 17-18, “Mastering DSP” on October 16-17, “Masters Training” on November 2-4 (just prior to the SEMA Show) and the series will end with a repeat of “Mastering DSP” on December 4-5. (see full schedule below)

There is a small cost associated with each course depending upon the subject matter covered. Included are hotel accommodations and meals. Classes will be limited to 20 students and for those attending the class, EM-USA will provide FREE tools (specific to the training) that the students can take back to their shop. The overall concept is to combine knowledge, understanding and the “right tools” to grow skill levels while eliminating technical barriers.

The “Masters Training” will be by “invitation only” as EM-USA looks to harness the knowledge and expertise of our leading technicians to help steer future educational classes while teaching them some new skills and techniques.

Rob Wempe VP Sales and Marketing for EM-USA is passionate about offering these trainings because “it’s imperative that we educate and train our dealers to have the knowledge and confidence to implement integration solutions necessary to compete within the rapidly evolving technologies of today’s vehicles.” He went on to say, “Dealers need the knowledge, tools and products necessary to provide their customers with a fully integrated audio system upgrade and who better to provide this training than EM-USA. We have been pioneering DSP integration technology for over a decade. We also believe we must train new technicians to our industry. That is why we are offering our Fundamentals of Sound class.”
