The Onkyo Icon P-80 Network Preamplifier is designed to be the control center for a modern two-channel system, combining serious
analog flexibility with network streaming and room correction. Onkyo’s patented DIDRC (Dynamic Intermodulation Distortion Reduction Circuitry)
is applied in the analog filter of the DAC and phono circuits to help deliver a vivid yet smooth presentation from digital and analog sources.
Built for real-world systems: a fan-less design, vibration-conscious chassis construction, and a phono circuit designed to operate independently from other circuits,
with compatibility for both MM and MC cartridges.
Room correction onboard — built-in Dirac Live® Room Correction with optional paid upgrades to Full Band and Bass Control.
Streaming done right — Wi-Fi/LAN plus support for Spotify Connect, TIDAL Connect, Qobuz Connect, Amazon Music, TuneIn, and Roon Ready.
Vinyl-ready — MM/MC phono input with a dedicated phono circuit designed for low-distortion performance.
TV integration — HDMI ARC makes it easy to bring TV audio into a high-performance stereo system.
Low-end flexibility — two independent subwoofer outputs for more even bass response and system tuning.
System hub simplicity — the Onkyo Icon P-80 Network Preamplifier consolidates analog, digital, and network sources into one elegant control platform.
Technology & Design
DIDRC signal refinement — Onkyo’s patented circuitry is used in the analog filter sections of the DAC and phono amplifier circuits.
Premium DAC platform — Onkyo cites a hi-res DAC implementation designed to reduce distortion and preserve detail.
Rigidity and vibration control — a multi-panel housing and reinforced chassis structure are designed to increase rigidity and reduce vibration effects.
App control — compatible with the Onkyo Controller mobile app for source selection and settings control from the listening position.
FAQ
What is Dirac Live on the P-80?
Dirac Live® Room Correction is included, with Onkyo noting a Limited mode and optional paid upgrades for Full Band and Bass Control.
Use the included setup mic input for calibration.
Can I use both music and TV sources?
Yes. Connect streamers/analog sources, plus a TV via HDMI ARC, then feed your power amplifier through RCA or balanced XLR pre-outs.
Why two subwoofer outputs?
Dual sub outs allow more flexible placement and smoother in-room bass, and they also support optional Dirac Live Bass Control workflows.
