Manual

Welcome to the World of Zapco Digital - 2012
For 2012: Zapco takes you to the next level with the new Zapco DC-Series amps, with
more control more features and speaker level inputs the make integration of the DC amps
with a factory stereo a breeze
What's New for 2012
First, of course, the DSP-Z8 has 2 more output channels than its predecessor. This allows
an active 4-way system to be set up, or an active 3-way main system with a rear fill.
The crossover of the DSP-Z8 has been improved by allowing up to 36dB/Octave slopes for
a sharper cut-off and better speaker protection.
The Signal delay function of the DSP-Z8 has more resolution, allowing adjustments down
to 3mm
Direct Muting has been added and can be used by individual channels or by channel pairs
The new DSP-Z8 accepts speaker level inputs through its balanced RCA input connectors.
You can just attach RCA connectors directly to the speaker outputs of a factory stereo
(up to 22 Volts) and plug them right into the DSP-Z8.
A voltage sensitive EQ filter lets you activate an EQ filter at a predetermined input level
to compensate for active factory equalization when integrating the processor and/or
amplifiers into your factory stereo system.
In this manual we will take you through the programming and control functions of the
Zapco DSP-Z8 and the on-board DSP in the Zapco DC Series of DSP controlled amplifiers
as well as the networking operations of Zapco's DPN system.
