Yes. In theory should present as a 9.1 amplifier. Drivers might be an issue! I seem to jump into these things with no real plan. 🙂 Hoping to use with Hauptwerk and a bunch of Audio Nirvana Classic 6s, 12s and 15s.
Have you listened any to those AN drivers or are you just saving them for the project?
I had some super 10 or maybe it was 12 some years ago, one of them started rubbing the coil so they got delegated to the trash bin. Quite liked the effortless sound, but the top end was a tad bit harsh, maybe the classic seres is better?

The Classics don't have the whizzer cone but they still have a rising top end that may need EQ...
Update. Nearly Done the CM6632A 10ch isolated amp. 🙂 The active area is isolated from the USB port and from the PVDD supply to the mosfets inside the SMM3582.
I hope to sample this mid April. Cleaning up the silks.

Very practical and economical solution to just use the computer for filter duties.
Tempting to see if there's a possibillity to do filters on an Android phone and use this CM6632A thingy together with it.

I just got to mention my most recent magical solution for multiway setup.
VB cable + Pedalboard 2 (must use 32bit version) + EngineersFilter with high order elliptic filters.
Ridiculously good, and simple!
Perfect for a 10channel amp!
I was so ready to make the move over to direct connection through i2s with a minisharc from Minidsp, but that's not gonna happen now! 🙂

I hope to get some time to learn about software for pcb design next week, will be away from home because of work. So no small kids, wife, political meetings, work around the house and so on. Hoping it will not be so much overtime so I can focus a bit on important matters. I have a layout very clear and detailed in my mind, hoping for some way to connect the neural network to a computer will be available in a few years...

Quick update. 10ch USB / SSM3582 prototype boards have left the manufacturer. 🙂 I've been working on the firmware the the CMedia IC. Hopefully up and running for test soon. I will refine the PCB design and component layout after some testing. 🙂
Greatly appreciated! 🙂
The SSM3582 seems to me a small leap forward in compact class D one IC solutions when considering low noise over the entire frequency band, and not only at 1khz. Not to mention the external parts count needed. I hope testing will be successful! 🙂

Hello sir, did you achieve success with your Board? I am looking around for a nice (eval) board!

I am also still interested in the SSM3582, but maybe sgpu had too much on the plate. maybe too many design consideration requests from me, I do not know. The layout near the end of the development was very interesting, and it might even be fun to try it out as a more powerful pre-amp stage.

I have a dev board kicking around now. Used to power 10 x Audio Nirvana Super12s for a church organ project. If you want one I can arrange a quote, maybe a group buy?

I'll produce some technical reports using my UPL and upload some photos. There have been some minor changes. Currently supports 10ch at 44.1/48Khz 16/20bits over USB2. Just seen as 10 channels to ASIO.
Hi sgpu, is there any progress with your design? I am asking becouse new AD part called SSM3525 is saying hello at the our's doorstep! Improvements over SSM3582! Look:

... What exactly is the improvement over SSM3582?
I would still prefer the '3582. The noise figures are almost identical, with slight advantage to '3582, power figures are also nearly identical with slight advantage to '3525.

Oh yes there is no performance progress - it was rave emotion too see something new. Performance is unexpectedly high for such tiny modules. The progress is in other places. First, this is ability to work with 17VDC which allows using 4S Li-Ion battery packs. Higher voltage of 4S packs and a bit higher output voltage swing of these new modules will result in higher power-density of mobile devices. There is also output current, output voltage and battery voltage monitoring added as well. All in all, some improvements... 🙂
I am courious when someone will DIY-build this into working amplififer. I could even pay someone for doing this for me.

Another argument in favor of the SSS3525 is the price. And number of pins, it needs so few solder points that even if it's uBGA it should be fairly easy to "bake on" in the oven.
Edit:
Is the SSM3525 only in mono?! If it is, it's NOT cheaper, and there is more work involved.
