Introduction

The  Kommander-KA02 I  is  the  smallest  amplifier  unit  in 
the  Kommander  line  with  an  incredibly  compact  size  of 

 

219 x 46 x 170 mm (8.6 x 1.8 x 6.7 in).

With  the  backing  of  200W,  the  Kommander-KA02 I  amplifier 
unit can be arranged in multiple output configurations such as 
4x 50W, 2x 100W, 2x 50W + 1x 100W.

The  amplifier  features  four  balanced  analog  inputs  and  a 
fiber  optical  input  working  up  to  192  kHz.  It  boasts  Bluetooth 
connectivity, mini jack input and USB ports for using MP3, WAV, 
FLAC, AAC, ecc., files.

Enhanced  performance  and  easy  tuning  are  managed  by  the 
Integrated Electronic Brain – IEB – implemented into the amplifier 
unit. More than a traditional DSP, the built-in micro electronics 
driven  by  the  integrated  operating  system  osKar  features 
expansive sound processing – input gain, signal routing matrix, 
delay, full parametric IIR filters (Peaking, Shelving, Hi/Lo pass, Hi/
Lo Butterworth) and on-board preset –, offering complete user 
control over the system performance.
