Product at a Glance

The British Acoustics Alpha Link 80 is a 4-channel Class D amplifier delivering 2000W per channel at 4Ω, built for demanding networked audio applications. Ideal for touring systems and large installations, it features full Dante integration for seamless digital distribution. With Gorilla Limiter protection, thermal and DC safeguards, and a high damping factor, it ensures speaker safety and system reliability. Its 32 dB gain, low THD, and 3Hz–30kHz response deliver clean, precise audio. Housed in a black aluminium chassis with a matte white front, the Alpha Link 80 combines power, clarity, and durability in a rack-ready design.

CRAFTSMANSHIP

Painstakingly Perfect Production

Over the years, craftsmanship has been closely linked with small scale individualistic production. Back in 1972, we started the same way. As we grew in scale & size, it was difficult to build each speaker individually, but quality control was of utmost importance as so switching to a general assembly line was simply not an option. So we wrote up a code, one quite like enigma, to ensure quality control. We selected the right partners, got the right tools, and in cases where those weren't available, we invented them. We grew slower than most as our aim was to last longer than most.
