GPIO
The rear panel connectors give access to the comprehensive GPIO functions, enabling remote ON/OFF control and linking capabilities.
For handy and practical Remote Level adjustments, a 10 kΩ potentiometer (not supplied) can be connected to the LEVEL Connectors. All the connectors needed for quick and easy installation are included with the DP-8015i.
Removable grille

The front grille is secured with magnets and is removable. This reduces the risk of tamper …….plus makes cleaning simple.
Power Factor Correction
Lets make this simple…. and call it PFC instead!
PFC, combined with the Switching mode power supplies inside DP series amps, increases the amplifier efficiency and regulates to ensure smooth power delivery even with huge fluctuations in the AC supply.
In the real world, it makes a big difference to amplifier performance and stability.
Build your system
DP-8015i is versatile. 8 channels allow for complex systems to be designed and deployed. Here’s an example of a typical installation.
How will you configure yours?

70 V / 100 V Ready
DP-8015i is perfect for Hi-Z systems delivering 8 x 150 W to either 100 V or 70 V systems.
Important : Before connecting the load to the amplifier, first measure the line impedance with an impedance bridge (a simple low-cost unit is adequate). If the load impedance is too low, the power amplifier will be loaded down and may overheat or distort. It’s a myth that you can connect an unlimited number of speakers to a 100 V or 70 V line. If the load impedance measures that it’s lower than the amplifier minimum operative impedance, re-tap all the speakers at the next-lower power tap. This raises the load impedance. Measure again.
