Re: Linea Research XiB4

It’s not a lot of power; 450 @ 8 ohms & 800 @ 4 ohms, but great for Monitors.

"Each pair of XiB4 channels contains a complete 96kHz digital loudspeaker management and control subsystem."
It doesn't sounds like 4 independent DSP channels… if it is, I’m confused.
 
Re: Linea Research XiB4

According to their .pdf it has 2 blocks of 2 channels with dsp for a total of four dsp channels.

Me thinks this is a lot of amp/dsp for the money. I tested their software, while their dsp was nowhere near Lab etc., it looked a lot better than Xti amps.

We use the Turbo branded amps with the Turbo TFM560 wedges. They are set up with 2 channels bridged for the LF and a single channel for the HF.
Three amps dirve 4 biamped mixes, 8 wedges total. The combined amp/wedge performance is phenomenal. It seems to me the power output falls short for any large scale speaker package deployment. If it has enough horsepower for your particular needs, it is a good sounding, solid amp with integrated processing built by people with a lot of experience.
