Electrocompaniet Announces Prelude PI-2D Integrated Amplifier

October 31, 2012 – 1st. of November Electrocompaniet is launching a new integrated amplifier with a built-in DAC in the Prelude range. The amplifier is based on the much acclaimed PI 2 amplifier boosting 2 x 100 Watts. You can connect up to 5 digital sources to the PI 2D and get away with fewer boxes and cables.

The 24/192 bit DAC and the modern technology in the PI 2D ensure that the music from all your sources will be reproduced with the best possible quality. The PD 2D offers five digital inputs: two Coax, two TOSLink and one USB. Analog sources can be connected by one balanced XLR input and four single ended RCA inputs.This gives a total of 10 inputs! In the development of PI 2D the focus has been to maintain the operating principles and sound quality of the classic line amplifiers and at the same time reduce manufacturing costs. To achieve this we have utilized modern surface mount technology (SMT) and optimized the amplifiers for our modern SMT production line.

Technical specifications:

– Input impedance ( Single Ended ): 60 kOhm
– THD + N: < 0.005%
– Output Impedance: < 0,03 Ohm
– Frequency response: 1 – 225kHz
– Channel separation: > 120 dB
– Noise floor ( 1Vrms, 20 – 20 kHz, balanced): <-130 dB

– Rated output power: 8 ohms 2 x 100 W, 4 ohms 2 x 165 W, 2 ohms 2 x 220 W
– USB input: 192kHz/24bit Asynchronous
– Weight: 11Kg

The PI 2D will have a RRP of 3150€
