Dayton Audio KABD-430 Amp BoardThe Next Level of DSP Amplification
Leverage the convivence of Bluetooth 5.0 and powerful DSP to truly create customizable audio projects with the accessibility of wireless streaming. The Dayton Audio KABD-430 combines a 4 x 30W amp board, Bluetooth 5.0, and an ADAU1701 digital signal processor all in one amp board. This enables you to customize your next DIY audio project's sound using SigmaStudio software and Dayton Audio KPX or ICP1 Bluetooth programmer.
The new Dayton Audio KABD series of boards all provide integrated Bluetooth 5.0 with aptX, DSP, and plug-n-play hookup sockets. The line comes with a 2x30W, 2x50W, 4x30W, and 4x100W versions. Check out what you can build with the all new KABD line.
All-in-one KABD-430 Amp Board with DSP & Bluetooth
The KABD-430 replaces the Dayton Audio DSPB-230 with a large array of new features and functionality. The KABD-430 provides high quality Bluetooth steaming, external potentiometers, easily programmable DSP, and is optimized for a longer battery life.
Other Included Features
The Dayton Audio KABD-430 DSP Amplifier Board delivers high quality sound without drawing a lot power. This is due to the highly efficient TPA3118 Class D amplifier chip. The TPA3118 operates at 88% efficiency, thus eliminating the need for a large heat sink and reducing its overall size. Its high efficiency becomes a major advantage when powering from batteries as it prolongs the playtime of a single charge. Its ultra-low distortion and pop-free performance make this hi-fi amplifier board an integral asset in any quality audio build..
Unlike other amplifier boards, the Dayton Audio KABD-430 includes a built-in ADAU1701 DSP chip. Create nearly limitless possibilities of EQ, crossover, bass enhancement, time alignment and more thanks to the ADAU1701 DSP chip. Make advanced crossovers with ease without capacitors, inductors, or preamp boards, and get almost immediate feedback on how your project sounds. SigmaStudio software and Dayton Audio DSPB-ICP1 or KPX programming boards (sold separately) combine together to let you set audio parameters to produce hi-fi quality sound. Download SigmaStudio into your desktop or laptop computer and plug the small ICP1 or KPX board into the USB port using a USB cable (sold separately). To quickly adjust the sound there are four potentiometers (sold separately) that plug into four sockets on the KABD-430 amp board..
The Dayton Audio KABD-430 includes a built-in Qualcomm Bluetooth 5.0 module with aptX HD. The advantage of Bluetooth 5.0 is its low power consumption which prolongs the playtime of battery powered builds. The streaming audio quality rivals that of CDs since the Bluetooth chip supports aptX, aptX HD, aptX LL, SBC & AAC. High receive sensitivity with RF power up to 9 dBm and -90 dBm, and on board antenna insure stable wireless connectivity up to 15m (50ft.) On board external antenna jack enables the KAB board to be mounted in a metal enclosure with an external antenna (sold separately). Designed and built for Bluetooth demonstration purposes, this fully functioning module provides a turn-key approach to Bluetooth certification for consumer goods. If the application of this board is for the hobbyist or industrial purposes then nothing is required to enjoy the full convenience of pairing and streaming high quality Bluetooth audio. The KABD-430 is also CE and FCC ready for certification purposes.
Included with the KABD-430 are three wire harnesses: one for DC power, a Bluetooth reset button, and the other for connecting to stereo speakers. For many users, these cables are all that is needed to complete a project. Since they have additional on board connectors, wiring harnesses (sold separately) are available to speed-up installation and create confident connections without soldering. Dayton Audio also offers a variety of accessories with robust features to make installation even easier. Find out more about optional accessories below.
SigmaStudio Integration
Although your KABD amplifier houses its own ADAU1701 DSP chip, to communicate with your PC, a USBi programmer is required. Dayton Audio has two compatible programmers -- the DSPB-ICP1 and the KPX. The programmer can be thought of as the bridge between your PC and your DSP chip so that they can communicate.
Bass Optimization
Low pass and infrasonic (high pass) filters offer total control over the range your woofers play, and precise PEQ can optimize the bass response of the woofer to your tastes. EQ could even be used to apply room equalization to improve the accuracy of your speaker's bass performance inside of a specific room.
Dynamic Bass Enhancement increases the proportion of bass at lower volumes, while decreasing the proportion of bass at higher volumes. Common practice in commercial Bluetooth speakers, this allows for a full, bass heavy sound from small drivers or exciters at lower volumes, but protects them from being overdriven at higher volumes.
SuperBass algorithm uses principles of psychoacoustics to increase perception of bass by generating harmonics above the chosen crossover frequency. This can be especially useful when using small drivers or exciters.
Analog Device's Dynamic Bass Boost Algorithm will provide more bass boost at lower input levels than it will at higher volumes. This type of boost is incredibly common in portable speakers, creating the effect of the speaker sounding full and bass-y at low volumes, but prevents overdriving the speaker at higher volumes. If this block is too confusing or in depth for you, see the next page for a simpler version.
Precise Tonal Control
This could include things such as selective bass boosts, treble boosts, or even just precise filters to correct other errors in frequency response.
There are many types of filter blocks, however the parametric EQ block allows for graphic, easy to use and precise adjustment of numerous bands of peaking filters, high/low pass filters, tone shelves and more.
Control your filters with the external potentiometers which will adjust the filter based on the position of the potentiometer. This filter works by pre-calculating a specific number of filters based on user parameters, and then storing them into the DSP memory
Project Ideas
Use this full function, adjustable amplifier board with built-in DSP chip and Bluetooth 5.0 in endless wireless audio applications that seem impossible to produce the right sound quality. So if you're a hobbyist or manufacturer enjoy presetting this full functioning 4 x 30W DSP amplifier board to peak performance in your finished product. The KABD-430 is also CE and FCC ready for certification purposes. Examples of applications include:

Portable Power Paths
Power Paths For portable applications, there are three battery holder/charging boards which permit the connection of li-Ion rechargeable batteries to power the board. First is the Dayton Audio LBB-3v2 3-cell 18650 battery holder/charger board that is the same size as the KABD-430 which makes it easy to stack the boards with standoffs. This battery board must use a 5 to 24 VDC power supply. If you desire more wattage output, use the 5-cell 21 VDC Dayton Audio LBB-5Sv2 or LBB-5v2 board. They work with 5 to 24 VDC power supplies. The LBB-5S uses 18650 Li-Ion batteries, and the LBB-5 uses 26650 Li-Ion batteries which delivers more play time. These portable power sources are highly recommended since all three provide under/over voltage protection.
Please note: To achieve power output briefly plug in the recommended power supply into the battery boards after the batteries are installed or when the batteries are removed and reinstalled.
