The Episode® EA-AMP-12D-70A is an efficient twelve-channel, Class-D amplifier that delivers a powerful 70 watts RMS per channel. Perfectly at home in multi-room applications, it features audio sensing turn-on, loop outputs, adjustable gain control and bridgeable outputs, giving installers the versatility required for today's sophisticated audio systems. Advanced digital amplifier technologies with installer-friendly features to create a robust power plant built from the ground up for today's multi-channel audio applications. Unlike analog amplifiers from the competition, our digital amplifiers are much more energy efficient and run up to 80% cooler. Plus, with a reduced need for heat sinks, you'll save space too with a chassis that's up to 30% smaller than traditional analog amplifiers. Three convenient turn-on modes make it easy to integrate with simple volume controls or sophisticated control systems. Audio-sense is perfect for Sonos or Apple Airplay multi-room audio – when the last source shuts down, the amplifier will gracefully go into a power-saving standby mode. The 12V trigger inputs and outputs allow you to use a preamp or control system to turn the amp on or off, or have it "wake up" another device when the amp is activated. The front panel power button is inoperative when the 12V Trigger or Audio Sense power modes are selected.
