Widely acclaimed as the most impressive audio processor on the market, the PXA-H800
has an extensive array of capabilities that will maximise the sound of any system.
Industry Leader in Audio Processing Capabilities
Audiophile-grade Components
A few years ago, Alpine released the AlpineF#1Status
series of ultra-high performance audio components.
Many of the lessons learned from developing those
models, about high-grade parts and how to apply them, are
now being put to good use in products like the PXA-H800.
One example is the use of fourWolfson 24-Bit D/A converters,
which are generally found only in professional recording systems and help to ensure
superb detail and soundscape. Another is the use of two 32-Bit floating-point SHARC
DSPs, which precisely reproduce the sound source with no degradation. Other top
quality parts are a 6-layer PCB and a 24-Bit A/D converter for high quality RCA input
and 114dB dynamic range at the device level.
Professional Sound Quality
The PXA-H800 provides all the audio processing functions necessary to enable the system to reach the highest levels of sound quality.
Time Correction and Digital Crossover
Digital Time Correction lets you achieve optimum sound
staging by ensuring that the sounds from all speakers
reach your ears at the same time. Up to 8 channels
can be corrected automatically or manually, from 0 to
20ms in 0.05ms steps. Digital high pass and low pass
filters allow you to set slopes from 0 to –36, with gain
from –24 to 0dB. You can customise your system with
the exact frequency crossovers you want.
Extensive EQ Capabilities
The PXA-H800 provides both graphic
and parametric equalisation. The
graphic EQ provides 31 bands for each
of the five channels, plus 10 bands for
the subwoofer, with gain from –12 to
+12dB. The parametric EQ lets you
select a band and then adjust the output level and width for precise tuning. You get
10 bands for each of the five channels, plus 5 for the subwoofer, with detailed Q
settings and gain from –12 to +12dB.
ImprintEQ with Post-Tuning Adjustment
ImprintEQ is a hardware/software combination that
can completely overcome the acoustical problems
present in every vehicle interior. It optimises the sound
stage, tonal balance and definition automatically, in
just a few minutes. After the tuning is complete, you
can manually tweak the settings if you desire.
True 5.1-channel Surround Sound
You can hear multi-channel sound from movie and
music sources in the Dolby Digital and DTS Digital
Surround formats. The unit also provides Dolby Pro
Logic II decoding, so you can even enjoy stereo
recordings in surround sound.
Bi-Phantom Centre Speaker
Even if you don’t have a centre speaker, you
can still enjoy 5.1-channel sound. Alpine has
included a Bi-Phantom function, which uses the
front left and right channels to create a phantom
centre channel, enhancing vocal quality.
