SEAMLESS INTEGRATION AND CONVENIENT UPGRADE OPTIONS

With the UP 8BMW, a simple and seamless integration into the BMW HiFi sound system at the original installation location is easily achievable thanks to the included plug & play connection cable and BMW-specific mounting plate. To facilitate further upgrades, it is perfectly designed for combination with other MATCH UPGRADE components for BMW vehicles, such as subwoofers, 2-way systems, and center speakers. With a total of eight amplifier channels and an additional preamp output, individual speaker configurations can be easily realized, thanks to the powerful 9-channel DSP. Two amplifier channels, each delivering 160 W output power at 2 Ohms, provide enough power to boost even large subwoofers. Furthermore, the MATCH UP 8BMW boasts enhanced connectivity, featuring an intelligent 6-channel highlevel input with the ADEP.3 circuit and a MEC slot for system expansions such as Bluetooth® HD audio streaming. It also includes a 1-channel mono line output for connecting external amplifiers like the MATCH UP 1FX and an optical input in SPDIF format with a sampling rate up to 96 kHz. Last but not least, it also comes with our SCP port for optional accessories like the DIRECTOR, CONDUCTOR etc.

VIRTUAL CHANNEL PROCESSING – THE MODERN WAY OF SIGNAL ROUTING 

The optimal adaptation to existing multi-channel sound systems requires sensible management and configuration of the many DSP channels – so it was no question that the UP 8BMW is also equipped with Audiotec Fischer's innovative virtual channel processing. Especially when front, rear and center systems are split into multi-way systems, conventional routing concepts quickly reach their limits, both in terms of implementation and usability. The multi-stage "Virtual Channel Processing", in conjunction with the recognized user-friendly DSP PC-Tool software makes it easy to map even highly complex system configurations and to freely assign our proprietary FX sound features. Additionally, thanks to its generous number of channels in combination with the optional MEC ANALOG IN module, the UP 8BMW is also a prime example for applications where 1 to 1 routing (IOR) makes sense. 

.

ACO – ADVANCED 32 BIT COPROCESSOR PLATTFORM 

Of course, the UP 8BMW is equipped with our proprietary 32 Bit ACO platform, which doesn’t just take over all control tasks ultra-fast, but also handles a bunch of audio functions: fantastic sound effects such as Augmented Bass Processing or Real Center are implemented as well as a channel-separated Input EQ including Input Signal Analyzer (ISA) for easy analysis and compensation of input signals of OE radios, which already include a sound setup by default.

DSP PC-TOOL 5 FEAT. TUNEEQ – POWERFUL FEATURES FOR THE ULTIMATE SOUND EXPERIENCE 

Of course, the MATCH UP 8BMW can be easily configured via our professional and exceptionally intuitive DSP PC-Tool 5. The familiar, numerous setting options leave nothing to be desired and guarantee an extremely precise sound adjustment even for complex system configurations. And thanks to the proprietary TuneEQ function for automated frequency response correction, you also save a lot of time when optimizing your sound.

.

CLASS GD TECHNOLOGY

Audiotec Fischer´s proprietary Class GD concept takes the efficiency of conventional Class D amps to the next level. By varying the internal supply voltage in several steps depending on the amplifier’s input signals, idle losses are significantly reduced and overall efficiency is close to maximum at any time. So heat dissipation is almost negligible, thus allowing smallest heat sinks and most compact form factors.

.

ACO – ADVANCED 32 BIT COPROCESSOR

The UP 8BMW incorporates an extraordinary powerful 32 Bit CoProcessor of the latest generation. This not only takes over all control tasks ultra-fast, but also the lightning-fast switching between up to ten possible sound setups.

But ACO offers much more – besides a channel-separated Input EQ including Input Signal Analyzer (ISA) for easy analysis and compensation of input signals of OE radios and fantastic sound effects like Augmented Bass Processing or RealCenter, there is now the revolutionary TuneEQ function for automated adjustment of the output equalizers.

A further significant advantage is the integrated, native boot loader of the CoProcessor. It allows software upgrades of all components of the DSP in order to adjust the microcontroller-controlled ADEP.3 circuit for example at future modifications / changes in the diagnostic system of factory radios or if the device will be extended with additional interfaces.
