AudioControl’s Bijou 5100D is a versatile five-channel integrated amplifier designed for local A/V setups. Featuring GaN semiconductor technology, it delivers efficient, high-fidelity audio with 65 watts per channel into 8 ohms (130 watts into 4 ohms). The Bijou 5100D includes an HDMI eARC input for immersive video audio, a TOSLINK/Coaxial digital input, analog RCA inputs, and outputs for both preamp and subwoofer. It offers seamless integration with home theaters, supporting up to four sources like video displays, turntables, streaming devices, and Dante network sources.
With a high-quality internal 384 kHz/32-bit DAC, it provides exceptional audio with a 106 dB signal-to-noise ratio and minimal distortion. Its compact size makes it ideal for discreet installation behind large TVs or micro-LED walls, enhancing audio performance in any setup. The Bijou 5100D is easily customizable and can be controlled via a web-based GUI, compatible with popular third-party automation systems. It’s the perfect solution for integrators seeking top-tier audio fidelity, video sound management, and flexible connectivity.
FEATURES:
- Next-generation GaN Semiconductor Amplification Technology: The Bijou 5100D Class-D GaN amplification runs cool to the touch, enabling installation options that otherwise limit traditional amplifier designs. GaN-based amplifier topologies achieve power conversion efficiencies in the 95% to 99% range through higher frequency fast switching speeds and lower on-resistance. This reduces conduction loss and lowers thermal temperatures, allowing for higher output power.
- Compact Size: GaN implementation requires less circuit board real estate and no ancillary device components to govern thermal convection, resulting in cool-running smaller chassis dimensions with more placement options.
- Dante Audio Networking : Dante audio support enables input/output interfacing with Dante-enabled devices such as AudioControl Directorâ M Series Models M6800D, M4800D, and CM series 70-Volt Amplifiers. These devices share uncompressed audio sources up to 328 ft (100 m) away with near-zero latency.
- HDMI eARC Input: Video soundtracks from connected devices or internal streaming services feature immersive audio codecs like Dolby Atmos or DTS. Before HDMI 2.1b, playback of these dynamic audio formats was often riddled with discerning lip sync issues as the display was last to receive the signal. eARC simplifies this process with a single HDMI cable. Automatic lip sync is mandatory for all eARC-equipped devices. It uses a dedicated audio channel via the HDMI cable for discovery, control functions, and precise audio and video alignment.
- Web Configurable and IP-, IR-Controllable: AudioControl provides a programmer-friendly API to integrate the Bijou 5100D into any popular automation ecosystem easily. Setup configuration is intuitive and fast via the web interface. An included remote enables stand-alone IR control.
