d:series amplifiers

manual

frequently asked questions

Can analog signals be routed individually?

At this stage, analog signals cannot be gained. The analog channels are routed directly (one by one) to the 
respective outputs. Only digital inputs (with MADI, DANTE or AES/EBU option) can be routed individually.

Can analog signals be gained?

No.

Can output channels be bridged?

Basically yes. In any case: be VERY CAREFUL and follow the instructions of the manual carefully to avoid 
damages of the amplifier and/or connected loudspeakers. 

Can d:series amplifiers be controlled by external systems like Crestron, KNX or similar systems?

Yes. At the support page on our website (www.sonible.com) you are able to find further information 
concerning the system integration.

Are ELA applications supported?

Yes. You can use the d:series amplifiers for ELA/100V applications without the need of any additional 
gear. Please be careful not to go below the minimum load of 4Ω!

Are d:series amplifiers 115VAC/60Hz compatible?

In the basic configuration, d:series amplifiers can NOT be run on 115VAC. There is a built-to-order option 
available that allows d:series amplifiers to be run with such input voltages. Please keep in mind that the 
output power ratings and power consumptions differ slightly between the two configurations. If you need 
more information on that topic, please contact [email protected]

Are the DIOs (digital input options) ‘hot swappable’?

No. The additional hardware options have to be installed directly by sonible.

Is the MADI option 56ch and 64ch frames capable?

The MADI option card can handle both madi frames (with or without varispeed).

Do I need an external input clock for the MADI option?

No, the MADI option regenerates its internal clock from the incoming MADI stream.

Can multiple d:series amplifiers be daisy chained??

Yes – without any restrictions!

Will daisy chaining cause timing problems?

No. Each point of relaying only causes a deterministic delay of 160nsec or 0,000768 samples (@96kHz).

What clock is provided at the clock output of the MADI option?

The clock output provides the internal reference clock signal.

How can I choose between coax and optical MADI inputs?

You can select the input via the graphical user interface.

Does the amplifier support remote control via tablet or smart phone?

The web interface is optimized for remote control via laptop and desktop computers. sonible can’t 
guarantee impeccable functionality via mobile devices such as tablets and smart phones.
