Blustream NPA100DA Networked Power Amplifier (NPA100DA)

Blustream NPA100DA Networked Power Amplifier (NPA100DA)

The Blustream NPA100DA networked audio zone amplifier delivers advanced audio integration within commercial or residential AV installations. It provides 2 x 50W stereo, 1 x 100W mono, or 70V/100V constant voltage output for multiple speakers with longer cable runs, alongside Dante audio integration.

Dante-enabled network audio

Natively integrates with Dante/AES67 for networked audio distribution and control.

• 2-channel Dante/AES67 audio input and 2-channel Dante/AES67 audio output.
• Dual network option with independent Dante and LAN control ports, or combined to a single LAN port.
• Power via PoE++ on the Dante LAN connection or via a local power supply; amplifier power output can be lowered subject to PoE capabilities.

Amplification and speaker coverage

Delivers the required power and constant-voltage topology for distributed audio with longer cable runs.

• 2 x 50W @ 4/8 ohm, or 1 x 100W @ 4/8 ohm operation.
• 70V / 100V constant voltage output for multiple speakers with longer cable runs.
• Dedicated LFE subwoofer output.

Comprehensive connectivity

Accommodates a wide range of sources and zones with flexible I/O.

• HDMI ARC with CEC volume control.
• MIC input with 48V phantom power and auto-ducking.
• 2-channel analog audio input, unbalanced and balanced.
• Optical (S/PDIF) audio input.
• 2-channel variable/fixed analog audio output, balanced/unbalanced.

DSP, sync, and control

Built-in processing and control support precise configuration and synchronization, including lip sync correction.

• DSP with EQ and audio delay for lip sync correction.
• Independent gain control for input channels.
• Control via front panel, IR, RS-232, and IP, plus an in-built web-GUI.
• Local 12V trigger for automated power control.
• Auto standby mode with signal sensing.
