Notes: Successor to the discontinued A32/A32 Dante line (site notes A32 and A32 Dante as discontinued). Onboard SHARC ADSP-2148x DSP drives internal 128x128 routing matrix, hence dsp=true; separate optional 'DSP stick' expansion slots also present. Bit depth not explicitly stated on this product page (sibling A32pro Dante page states 32-bit ESS converters on identical hardware platform -- likely same but NOT confirmed on this page, so left blank per no-guessing rule). Ferrofish's own site lists EUR pricing only (no USD); price_usd of $2,899.00 is US street price from Sweetwater (https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/A32Pro--ferrofish-a32-pro-multi-format-converter), not manufacturer MSRP -- FLAG basis. Power consumption not stated on this page (sibling A32pro Dante lists 12V/3A, ~36W max).
