Musway EIGHT100

The Musway EIGHT100 is a powerful 8-channel Class D amplifier from the MX series that impresses with its enormous power reserves, versatile connectivity options, and an exceptionally compact design. With up to 8 x 180 watts RMS at 2 ohms or 4 x 360 watts RMS in bridge mode, this power amplifier is ideal for high-end car audio systems in fully active, semi-active, or passive configurations.

Thanks to individually adjustable crossovers, high- and low-level inputs, and the integrated EPS® protection circuit, the EIGHT100 can be flexibly integrated into both existing and new sound systems. The automatic power-on function, start-stop compatibility, and included bass-level remote control provide additional ease of use. The high-quality enclosure, featuring a heat sink and end panels made of brushed aluminum, underscores its premium quality.

In the Car & Hifi 1/2022 test, the Musway EIGHT100 was ranked among the absolute best and recognized as a particularly powerful multichannel amplifier. It also received the “Product of the Year 2022” award in the multichannel power amplifier category.
