About the Morel MDSP 10/8A
From our tech experts at CEN
A 10-channel amplifier, Class D, with a digital sound processor built in, so amplification and tuning arrive in one chassis, rated at 640w RMS.
Who it suits
Drivers who want processed, properly tuned sound without finding space for a separate DSP and amplifier. In cars where space is tight, and in any vehicle keeping its factory head unit, this is the tidy answer.
Our tech experts advise
The processing is only worth what the tuning puts into it: measurements in the car, delays set for the driving seat, crossovers chosen for your drivers. That is the work, and we do it at our Beeston workshop. It also needs a fused feed from the battery on the correct cable gauge. Installation is priced per vehicle, so get in touch with your make, model and year and we will confirm what it needs. See car audio installation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can the Morel MDSP 10/8A connect to a factory head unit?
A: Yes. It accepts up to 8 channels of speaker-level input (up to 30V), offers signal summing, and SLAM keeps the factory amplifier engaged so factory audio functions are preserved.
Q: How much power does the MDSP 10/8A deliver?
A: Channels 1-4 deliver 80W RMS each at 4 ohms and channels 5-8 deliver 160W RMS each at 4 or 2 ohms. Channels 5-8 can be bridged to 2 x 320W RMS.
Q: Does the MDSP 10/8A have Bluetooth?
A: Yes. It supports Bluetooth streaming alongside speaker-level, RCA, optical and USB-DAC inputs, with automatic source switching.
