Zapco introduced the new DSP-Z8 IV signal processor. It was designed to bring true audiophile sound quality to an affordable DSP. And it did just that! The DSP-Z8 IV provided sound quality superior to units costing even twice as much. Even competition cars are using the Z8 IV, right up to one of the top Master Class SQ cars. The DSP-Z8 IV has been a true giant killer. But, as we have always said, and always will say, “We believe we can still do better”. This year we present the Zapco DSP-Z8 IV II and the ADSP-Z8 IV-8 Amplifier. What’s new with the Series IV II? Just about everything, new form, new features, new control... even improved sound quality with a lower noise floor.
The sharp new look matching the Black and Copper theme of the AP amplifiers is only the beginning. The hardware inside is where the magic begins. A quick fact: You can only be as good as your source material, and the DSP-Z8 IV II series greatly expands your potential for the best possible source material. The Toslink optical input accepts the digital signal from your head unit or from a portable HD player, but the IV II series doesn’t stop there. The DSP-Z8 IV II units also have digital Bluetooth streaming so you can stream digital music. Speaking of hardware, we have added the ADSP-Z8 IV-8 this year. So you can have the DSP Z8 IV II with an on-board 8-Channel full range Class D Amplifier.

The Toslink optical input accepts the digital signal from your head unit or from a portable HD player, but the IV II series doesn’t stop there. The DSP-Z8 IV II units also have digital Bluetooth streaming so you can stream digital music. An interactive digital port will expand your options even more. The port accepts the control input from the included Dash Remote so you can change input source, change memory presets, control the master volume and even control the output of your system’s bass amps. But beyond that, this special port will let you upgrade to the 3” digital touch screen remote for more control (available September 2018). And in November 2018 you will even be able to connect an external HD player, with its own integrated remote. Also available in November 2018, is the iPhone interface that will let you play up to 192kHz HD music files direct from the iPhone’s digital output.

Speaking of hardware, we have added the ADSP-Z8 IV-8 this year. So you can have the DSP-Z8 IV II with an on-board 8-Channel fullrange Class D Amplifier. As good looking as this product is, it's not just a pretty face. This amplifier give you 80 Watts per channel @ 4 Ohms and 120 Watts per channel @ 2 Ohms. Zapco was the very first company to give you a full function DSP on-board with in a car audio amplifier. That was in 2004, and it was the Class AB, Reference DC (Digital Control) Series. Those amplifiers and were immediately lauded for they're Zapco sound quality and the amazing versatility provided by the digital processor. But as AB amplifiers they were also quite large at a time when cars were becoming smaller and lighter. With the advances in Class D technology over the last 15 years we have been able to get that same Zapco sound quality into the new Z8 IV-8 in a smaller and more powerful package. Compared to the multichannel Reference DC amp, the Z8 IV-8 will give you almost 40% more power and do it in less than 1/3 the size. With high power, great Zapco sound quality and Z8 IV II DSP, we believe the Zapco ADSP-Z8 IV II-8 will be the dream amplifier for many audiophiles and tuners alike, and the amp of choice for anyone who wants the best of everything in a very small package. PS: The touch screen remote, the HD Player, the 196kHz iOS HD input, and all other upgrades coming for the Z8 IV II processor will absolutely apply to this amplifier as well.
