AV distribution company Blustream has released the NPA100DA Dante-enabled networked power amplifier for audio integration to commercial or residential AV installations, according to a company press release.

For conference and meeting rooms, the NPA100DA is a solution for delivering amplification for presentation and background audio. With its microphone input and integrated audio-ducking capabilities, it can also be used for live event applications such as lecture halls and small auditoriums.

"The NPA100DA is a multipurpose powerhouse," Martyn Shirley, Blustream general manager, said in the release. "Integrators can't go wrong selecting it wherever Dante-enabled power amplification is needed. It's feature-packed and especially flexible with its small footprint. It's as comfortable in the family room as it is in the boardroom."

The device supports a variety of inputs, including two-channel Dante audio, HDMI ARC, MIC audio with 48V phantom power support, optical audio and two-channel balanced/unbalanced analog audio.

Its 70-100V speaker outputs can feed commercial-grade audio over large distances for in-wall/in-ceiling/pendant speakers as typically found in commercial applications.
