Powersoft 3rd Generation Amplification Technology: The UNICA-2K8 utilizes Powersoft’s advanced third-generation amplification technology, ensuring maximum audio fidelity and reliability. This technology optimizes performance in demanding environments, making it suitable for both commercial and professional audio applications.

Networking Capabilities: Equipped with three configurable 1Gb ports, the UNICA-2K8 supports flexible daisy-chain and Dante-redundant network topologies. Users can choose between two operating modes: Switched and Split-Redundant. The Split-Redundant mode dedicates one port to control traffic while managing audio traffic through the remaining two ports. This design guarantees efficient separation and reliable handling of network traffic, essential for complex audio setups.

Power over Ethernet (PoE) Input: The PoE input allows the UNICA-2K8 to maintain power to network ports and amplifier logic during mains power loss. This feature ensures minimal disruption and a quick recovery time when power is restored. Additionally, it enables monitoring of loudspeakers and amplifier outputs even without mains power when utilizing PoE++.

Power Sharing: Each output channel can deliver up to double its rated power when dealing with asymmetrical loads. This feature provides remarkable versatility in system design and allows seamless integration of both 70/100V and low-impedance loudspeakers down to two ohms. Users do not need to configure the output mode, simplifying setup and operation.

Front Panel Display: The intuitive front panel LCD display provides easy access to the amplifier’s status and general information. This feature aids in troubleshooting, monitoring, and maintenance, enhancing user experience and operational efficiency.

ArmoníaPlus Software Integration: All models include network connectivity and onboard processing compatible with Powersoft’s ArmoníaPlus software. Users can easily adjust amplifier parameters, load speaker presets, and tune complex systems for optimal performance.

Eco Mode: The Eco Mode feature promotes energy efficiency by automatically disabling output channels when audio signals are absent. Channels reactivate instantly upon signal detection, minimizing energy consumption without compromising audio quality.

Easy Swap Functionality: The UNICA-2K8 allows for quick replacement of amplifiers without requiring specific knowledge. It stores backup settings on a USB flash drive, facilitating seamless restoration to a replacement unit. This capability significantly reduces downtime during equipment changes.

Universo Cloud Connectivity: With cloud-native connectivity, users can remotely monitor the amplifier’s status from any device worldwide. The Universo platform enhances flexibility and provides users with peace of mind, knowing they can oversee their audio systems anytime, anywhere.
