Latin America. Sonos today announced the launch of Amp Multi, a one-of-a-kind flexible multi-channel streaming amplifier designed to make complex home audio installations simpler, more flexible, and easier to expand.
Developed for and working closely with integrators, Amp Multi brings the Sonos experience to larger, more sophisticated homes, while maintaining the brand's signature quality and simplicity.
Why Amp Multi was created
More and more homeowners are opting for homes with open, multifunctional spaces, so AV integrators began to point out that they needed a system that could adapt to the evolution of these designs, but without complicating installation or causing discomfort for homeowners. Amp Multi was created to meet that need.
With eight amplified outputs delivering 125W each and up to four configurable zones, Amp Multi gives professionals the freedom to design systems that fit their customers' homes and lifestyles.
"The Sonos Amp is the most widely used two-channel streaming amplifier in residential installations because it's powerful, reliable and intuitive," said Tom Conrad, CEO of Sonos Sonos. "Amp Multi takes that same philosophy and applies it to larger systems. It allows ambitious designs to be built and installed more efficiently and makes them easier to use on a daily basis."
Why Amp Multi is different
Amp Multi combines Sonos' playback platform and intuitive control with an architecture designed for professional workflows. Any output can be assigned to any zone, systems can be expanded by adding units as needed, and a large number of speakers can be boosted without sacrificing stability or sound quality. Each output supports up to three Sonos Architectural speakers, enabling dense and efficient installations across multiple rooms or spaces.
At the hardware level, Amp Multi employs a GaN power architecture combined with Class D post-filter feedback. This design generates clean, controlled sound, while improving thermal efficiency in all zones, allowing the system to operate quietly without fans and remain stable over extended periods of use.
