Paired with an A35.8 it turns into a serious multichannel system from two boxes. Choose the SPA25 instead if you want the amplification included in one chassis and nine channels is enough.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePro Tip:\u003c\/b\u003e HDMI here is 2.0b rather than 2.1, so 4K with dynamic HDR is covered but 8K and 4K at 120Hz are not. If you game at high frame rates, run the console straight to the television and take the audio back to the SP25 over eARC. Nothing is lost, because the console is not sending Atmos any other way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd colspan=\"2\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eProcessor\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHome cinema preamplifier and processor, no amplification\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProcessing channels\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e11 channels of immersive audio processing\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSurround formats\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDolby Atmos, DTS:X and derived immersive audio processing\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRoom correction\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDirac Live, Limited Bandwidth licence included, Full Bandwidth available from Dirac\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd colspan=\"2\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eConversion\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDAC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2 x ESS 9026PRO\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd colspan=\"2\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eVideo\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHDMI inputs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4 x HDMI 2.0b\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHDMI outputs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2 x HDMI, 1 with eARC and 1 auxiliary\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCopy protection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHDCP 2.2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVideo switching\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4K with dynamic HDR\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd colspan=\"2\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eStreaming\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePlatform\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePrimare Prisma\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNetwork\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2 x Ethernet in and out, WiFi\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eServices\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRoon Ready, AirPlay 2, Chromecast built in, Bluetooth, Spotify Connect, Tidal HiFi, Qobuz, Prisma Radio\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd colspan=\"2\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eConnectivity\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAnalogue inputs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5 x RCA, including a 7.1 multichannel input\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDigital inputs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 x coaxial RCA, 1 x Toslink, 1 x USB-B\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOther\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 x USB-A\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAnalogue outputs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIncludes dual front left and right outputs for bi-amping\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eControl\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePrisma remote, IR 3.5mm in and out, 12V trigger 3.5mm out, RS232\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd colspan=\"2\"\u003e\u003cb\u003ePhysical\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimensions (W x H x D)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e430 x 145 x 405 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10 kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFinishes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack, Titanium\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd colspan=\"2\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eWarranty\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2 years\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Primare","offers":[{"title":"Black","offer_id":48464922345730,"sku":"PRI-SP25-BLK","price":8399.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Titanium","offer_id":48464922476802,"sku":"PRI-SP25-TIT","price":8399.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0064\/4376\/1716\/files\/primare-av-processor-pri-sp25-blk-1257597658.jpg?v=1788942155","url":"https:\/\/www.customht.com.au\/products\/primare-sp25-prisma-home-cinema-preamplifier","provider":"CHT Solutions","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
