d&b audiotechnik launches 25D and D25 power amplifiers.
June 3, 2025 - Backnang, Germany - d&b audiotechnik is expanding its amplifier lineup with the launch of the 25D and D25 models. Taking advantage of d&b's leading-edge amplifier DSP platform, these new additions promote Milan networking compatibility, ensuring full harmony with d&b's software suite and securing smooth performance and improved workflow efficiency. Delivering versatility, the D25 amplifier is optimized for mobile applications, while the 25D focuses on installation setups.
"With the 25D and D25, we're offering a budget-friendly solution that excels perfectly in small to mid-sized applications, all while sharing the same feature set as the more potent D90, D40, and 40D amplifier models," explains Wolfgang Schulz, Head of Product Management, Electronics & Software at d&b audiotechnik. "Users can bank on essential features like ArrayProcessing and Milan for outstanding performance and effortless integration."
Tailored for Mobility and Installation
Suitable for rental companies, venue operators, and system integrators seeking efficient amplification, the D25 and 25D provide an optimal balance of power and adaptability. Designed for mid-size reinforcement applications, these models work flawlessly when combined with d&b loudspeaker systems, like the new CCL System, A-Series, Y-Series, E-Series, xC-Series, or Xs-Series, forming a completely integrated d&b system.
Advanced DSP and Milan Integration
As a part of d&b's latest DSP platform, these amplifiers embrace Milan for precise synchronization, streamlined configuration, and boosted interoperability. "Adopting Milan has always been a priority for us," adds Marco Fußhöller, Product Manager Electronics at d&b audiotechnik. "By incorporating this protocol into our latest amplifiers, we're not only elevating user experience but also catalyzing wider industry adoption."
Both amplifiers support d&b's entire software suite, including ArrayCalc, ArrayProcessing, NoizCalc, and R1 remote control. In addition, the integration of d&b HeadroomCalc enables seeing a more accurate representation of the overall system performance, serving as a valuable aid in making prudent project decisions.
Intuitive User Interface and Connectivity
The 25D and D25 feature a 4.3" colour touchscreen, making device configuration and real-time status monitoring a breeze. With dimensions compact at 2RU, both amplifiers support up to 16 input channels, including eight Milan input channels, four analogue inputs, and four AES3 channels, with corresponding link outputs. The installed 25D variant also comes with dedicated Euroblock connectors for General Purpose Input/Output (GPIO) and a fault contact, providing eight GPI and four GPO pins for augmented control functionality. Extra energy-saving features, high power efficiency, and an automatic wake-up function emphasize their eco-friendly operation.
The 25D and D25 amplifiers are slated for release at the end of August. Prospective users can get a firsthand look at InfoComm 2025 (booth no. 6973 or in the demo room W320, Chapin Theater, level 3).
