Kappa® Amplifiers Add to Renowned Infinity®
History of Car Audio Products
New Amplifiers Provide All the Necessary Power with Small Footprint
WOODBURY, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Infinity Systems, a Harman International company and maker of
high-performance loudspeakers for home and car audio, today announced
its innovative new line of Kappa® One, Kappa Four and Kappa
Five amplifiers. Those itching to customize their car audio systems can
now do so with assurance, thanks to these compact and easy-to-install
amplifiers. Whether for the car aficionado who's looking to bring
quality to his or her custom ride or for the first-time buyer of car
audio amplifiers, this line of Kappa amplifiers easily fits the bill.
The new Kappa amplifiers utilize Infinity expertise in full-range Class
D amplifier technology, which was first developed by the company for
both home and car audio use in the mid 1980's. The Kappa One and Kappa
Five apply Dynamic Bass Optimization (DBO) - a proprietary variable
subsonic filter with variable bass boost. Unlike conventional
fixed-frequency filters, DBO conserves power at frequencies below 100Hz,
protecting woofers in vented-box applications from over excursion, and
flattening response through the lowest octaves in sealed-box and
infinite-baffle applications.
The rich Infinity heritage in auto sound - which includes dynamic
high-end design and proven technology - has long been one of the things
that distinguished Infinity components. Now, Infinity engineering has
closed the loop with a line of premium amplifiers that are worthy of the
Kappa name.
"Infinity Systems strives to develop products that deliver world-class
performance, and that boost audio purity as well as reliability. With
the new line of Kappa amps, we've more than achieved those goals," said
Christopher M. Dragon, director of customer marketing for Harman
Consumer, "and have met the natural market need for quality sound from a
product that delivers high power in an easy-to-install, compact
footprint."
