The Primare I25 Prisma Amplifier combines a digital to analogue conversion module and SM35 Prisma network player module. With the award winning I25 amplifier platform, featuring UFPD2 amplification delivering 100 watts per channel, this creates a versatile system.
Technology
The I25 Prisma modular amplifier is the latest iteration of Primareโs iconic amplifiers. It is among the first to use new UFPD 2 power system, a reworking of Primareโs UFPD all-analogue Class-D technology.
Providing 100 watts at 8 ohms of absolutely linear UFPD 2 amplification, I25 Prisma delivers natural, clean and agile sound.
The I25 Prisma includes both the sophisticated digital to-analogue converter module, DM36, as well as a Prisma network player module, SM35, to create an extraordinarily versatile system control centre.
The DM36 is a full-featured digital to analogue converter stage enabling up to PCM 384kHz/32bit and DSD 256 conversion, with upsampling options and MQA processing.
MQA (Master Quality Authenticated) is an award-winning British technology that delivers the sound of the original master recording. The master MQA is a fully authenticated file and is small enough to stream or download.
I25 Prisma continues a Primare tradition of delivering astonishing performance from compact and elegant amplifiers for easy installation into any living environment.
Prisma โ Network and Multiroom Technology
Prisma is a bundle of technologies that provide the broadest range of network music player features and functionality. A streamer that allows everyone in the household to explore, discover, and share high-performance music playback, Prisma provides multi-room/multi-zone connectivity. Stored and streamed media, whether wired or wireless, are all managed from mobile devices through the Prisma system control app.
In addition to AirPlay 2, Bluetooth, Roon Ready, and Spotify Connect, the I25 Prisma amplifier features Chromecast built in. This allows effortless direct connection to hundreds of streaming applications and services, including voice control, for the best possible performance and user experience.
The look and feel of Scandinavia
We believe that every aspect of our products โ the way they look and the satisfying feel of the controls โ contributes to the overall experience of living with Primare. As a result, Primare products exude the hallmarks of Scandinavian design โ simple, elegant designs with easy-to-understand functionality.
An example of this is our signature control knob, known throughout the industry for both its appearance as well as how it feels in the hand as an input is selected or volume adjusted. โ or as we say lagom, not too much not too little, everything in balance, proportion, and harmony.
Modular Design and System Building
We feel it is essential to offer modularity whenever possible to have just the right features, both now and for the future. Modular design features in the I25 amplifier, as well as the PRE35 modular preamplifier.
All of these can be updated with DAC and Prisma modules, as well as the CD35 CD player that can have the Prisma module added, either at the time of purchase or later.
As a result, we can offer a carefully considered array of models and configurations to allow for device selection that best fits any system need. For example, a CD35 with Prisma module installed can be paired with an I25 integrated amplifier, allowing for a separation of analogue and digital stages.
Or, an I25 with DAC and Prisma modules installed can be paired with a DD35 CD transport, allowing for multi-room and multi-zone playback of every input, whether analogue or digital source.
