The Optimal Audio SmartAmp 20 is a compact, high-performance 4-channel DSP power amplifier designed to deliver flexible, efficient amplification for modern commercial audio systems. Combining Class-D efficiency, integrated DSP, and intelligent power sharing, it provides a scalable solution for installations requiring multiple channels of amplification within minimal rack space.
Built to integrate seamlessly with Optimal Audio loudspeakers and control systems, the SmartAmp 20 is ideally suited to hospitality, retail, education, and corporate environments where performance, flexibility, and ease of deployment are essential.
The SmartAmp 20 delivers 4 x 125W of output power, with each channel capable of driving either low impedance (4Ω–16Ω) or 70V/100V line loudspeaker systems.
This multi-channel configuration makes it ideal for:
By consolidating four channels into a single unit, it reduces the need for multiple amplifiers and simplifies system design.
A key differentiator of the SmartAmp 20 is its power sharing capability. Power is shared between pairs of channels, allowing unused capacity from one channel to be reallocated to another where required.
For example, if one channel is lightly loaded, additional power can be delivered to a more demanding speaker circuit. This enables:
This feature is particularly valuable in installations with uneven speaker loads or varying zone requirements.
The SmartAmp 20 includes built-in digital signal processing tailored specifically for Optimal Audio loudspeakers.
DSP functionality includes:
These presets are selected via rear-panel switches, enabling quick setup without the need for external DSP or software configuration.
This ensures consistent sound quality and reliable operation across all connected loudspeakers.
The SmartAmp 20 supports both distributed 70V/100V systems and traditional low impedance speaker configurations, making it suitable for a wide range of installations.
This flexibility allows it to be used in:
This dual capability ensures long-term adaptability as system requirements evolve.
Utilising Class-D amplifier technology, the SmartAmp 20 delivers high output with improved efficiency and reduced heat generation.
Benefits include:
The amplifier is also Energy Star compliant, supporting energy-efficient operation in commercial installations.
The SmartAmp 20 features a half-width 1U rack design, allowing two units to be mounted side-by-side within a single rack space.
This enables:
It can also be deployed in desktop or wall-mounted configurations, providing additional installation flexibility.
The SmartAmp 20 is designed for seamless integration into commercial AV systems, featuring:
This ensures compatibility with mixers, DSP systems, and zone controllers, supporting both standalone and integrated system designs.
The Optimal Audio SmartAmp 20 is widely used across commercial environments:
Its multi-channel capability makes it particularly suitable for installations requiring multiple speaker zones.
