Also Available in 240VAC Version (Order No. D12-240)
Designed, built and rigorously tested for outstand-
ing reliability and sound, the D12 achieves a high
level of dependability and performance in multi-
channel amplification.
The D12 uses low heat/high effieiency Class D
digital technology with 8x oversampling and 48-bit
signal processing to deliver the cleanest audio and
most efficient amplification available today. Each of
the amplifier’s 12 channels have a true power rat-
ing of 75W into 8 Ohms and 100W into 4 Ohms –
with all channels driven. The D12 also incorporates
new, one-of-a-kind technologies that make its
setup, flexibility and performance truly unique.
Configuring the D12 is done through its front
panel buttons and display. From there you can set
input levels for each channel individually or for all
channels at once. You can also configure input
selections for direct stereo, mono mix-down, and
A/B bussing in both stereo and mono
Program features such as max volume output, min/
max turn-on levels for each channel, independent
triggers that allow you to turn on and off any mix
of amp channels, link/un-link channel pairs and
more. You can even create up to three “scenes”
that, with the touch of a button, can raise or lower
specific amp channels.
What’s more, the D12’s blue graphical LCD allows
you to view all your settings and provides impor-
tant diagnostic information such as faults, thermal
warnings and impedance load per channel.
All these features, and many more, have been
incorporated into a chassis design that exceeds all
standard quality assurance testing – and then some
– making the D12 the most reliable amplifier ever
built for multi-room audio applications.
