   The Uniti Nova PE provides 150 watts per channel into 8 ohms and up to 250 watts into 4 ohms, making it capable of driving demanding loudspeakers and filling large rooms with detailed, dynamic sound.

4. Does the Uniti Nova PE have a built-in DAC and how does that help
   Yes, the Nova PE includes a high-quality built-in DAC (Burr-Brown) so you can connect digital sources directly (like TV, USB drives, or network streams) and have them converted to analog with high resolution before amplification. This means you don’t need a separate DAC to enjoy high-fidelity digital music.
5. What makes the Uniti Nova PE different from a traditional amplifier?
