Next-generation GaN Semiconductor Amplification Technology
Bijou 3100Ds Class-D GaN amplification runs cool to the touch, enabling installation otherwise limited by traditional amplifier designs. GaN-based amplifier topologies achieve power conversion efficiencies in the 95% to 99% range, allowing higher output power in a more compact chassis size.
Compact Size
GaN implementation requires less circuit board real estate and no ancillary device components to govern thermal convection, resulting in cool-running smaller chassis dimensions with more placement options.
HDMI eARC Input
Video soundtracks from connected devices or internal streaming services feature immersive codecs like Dolby Atmos, or DTS surround audio. A unique eARC implementation for the Bijou Series enables GUI-assignable downmixing at the RCA outputs, enabling wireless headphone interfaces or Bluetooth adapters to provide private playback options. At the same time, original surround decoding continues at the powered speaker and subwoofer outputs.
Web Configurable and IP-, IR-Controllable
AudioControl provides a programmer-friendly API to integrate the Bijou 3100D into any popular automation ecosystem. Setup configuration is intuitive and fast via the web interface. An included remote enables stand-alone IR control.

Bijou 3100
Bijou 3100 is a compact, 3.1-channel, high-powered integrated amplifier for professional installations, delivering 100W per channel at 8 ohms. Featuring eARC decoding and GaN technology, it ensures the highest-quality audio and supports Dolby Atmos and DTS surround. Versatile connectivity options and IP control let installers deliver exceptional AV experiences in residential and light commercial settings.
The Bijou 3100 is comfortable as the centerpiece in a local, stand-alone three-source system comprising, for example, an eARC-capable video display, an analog onboard phono preamp-equipped turntable, and a digital source such as a streaming music player. Digital conversion is accomplished by a high-quality internal 384 kHz/ 32-bit DAC with a 106 dB signal-to-noise ratio and a remarkable Total Harmonic Distortion + Noise (THD+N) rating of 0.0025%. Add a pair of loudspeakers, a center channel, and a powered subwoofer for an easy-to-operate, ultra-dynamic music or video audio playback system. The RCA single-ended outputs are GUI-configurable and can be assigned to playback downmixed eARC audio while the powered outputs continue reproducing the original surround format. This is perfect for private listening through a wireless headphone interface, a Bluetooth adapter, or even multizone house-wide distribution.
The Bijou 3100 may feel most at home conveniently mounted unseen behind flat panel TVs, now stretching to a massive 115 inches, or micro-LED walls, which are gaining popularity in select luxe residences. Behemoth TVs beckon the senses by their sheer daunting size, only to underwhelm with lackluster audio. Augment a big image with a bigger sound, courtesy of the high-performance Bijou 3100. An intuitive, programmer-friendly Web-based GUI enables fast and easy customization to interface the Bijou 3100 with all popular third-party over-control systems.
The Bijou 3100 ups the channel ante to perfectly complement high-end, power-hungry passive soundbars. Left, Center, and Right game-changing GaN-fueled channels each punch well above their weight class, delivering 100 uncompressed pristine watts or more to launch the latest box office action soundtrack directly through to the living rooms back wall. A line-level subwoofer output enhances TV viewing, while the automaton-friendly and web-configurable Bijou 3100 integrates seamlessly into any popular automation ecosystem.
