Pro-Ject Amp Box S3 CI – Designed for custom installation

Pro-Ject Audio Systems describes the new Pro-Ject Am Box S3 CI as an audiophile micro-stereo power amplifier. The aim is to provide a tool for the realisation of individual, professional installations for custom installation solutions.

Story Highlights
  • Pro-Ject Audio Systems now presents the new Pro-Ject Amp Box S3 CI amplifier as a compact, audiophile solution for custom installations.

With the so-called Pro-Ject Box Design Series, Pro-Ject Audio Systems has been able to offer a very, very wide range of different electronic components for years, from a wide variety of source devices such as CD players, streaming clients, phono preamps and D/A converters, to stereo integrated amplifiers, preamps and power amplifiers as well as particularly versatile All-in-One systems.

The new Pro-Ject Am Box S3 CI is a premiere, because for the first time a solution is available that is not primarily aimed at consumers, but specifically at custom installation experts. The new stereo power amplifier is intended to provide them with a flexible solution for the realisation of individual, customised projects.

Ultra-compact stereo power amplifier

Pro-Ject Audio Systems refers to the new Pro-Ject Amp Box S3 CI as a particularly compact stereo power amplifier, emphasising its sound qualities to the extent that it is even described as an audiophile solution. The aim of this new product in the Pro-Ject Box Design Series is to fulfil the highest demands.

According to the manufacturer, the Pro-Ject Amp Box S3 CI is characterised by a PCB concept designed according to audiophile features and a sophisticated topology, thus realising a solution whose signal processing is characterised by low distortion and a high signal-to-noise ratio. However, it should be noted that the focus here is on sound reinforcement for small to medium-sized rooms. The new Pro-Ject Amp Box S3 CI delivers two outputs of 37 watts to speaker systems with an impedance of 4 ohms, as the data sheet reveals.

Special features for custom installation solutions

The new Pro-Ject Amp Box S3 CI comes in the familiar elegant, solid aluminium housing, in either silver or black, and can therefore be placed almost anywhere.

On the input side, the product features signal detection, so it automatically switches on or switches to standby depending on whether a signal is present or not. The Pro-Ject Amp Box S3 CI has a stereo input in the form of a pair of RCA sockets and a stereo loop output.

Special solutions optimised for professional use are available for connecting loudspeaker systems and, of course, 12 V trigger inputs and outputs for integration into control solutions are just as important as an RS232 interface.

It should also be mentioned that the new Pro-Ject Amp Box S3 CI not only has a volume control, but also a bass and treble control.

Prices and availability

The new Pro-Ject Amp Box S3 CI will be available immediately at the recommended retail price of € 349,- in silver or black.

Getting to the point

Pro-Ject Audio Systems is now celebrating a premiere with the new Pro-Ject Amp Box S3 CI, as this is the first solution in the Pro-Ject Box Design Series that has been designed primarily for use in the custom installation segment.
