Amplifier Specs:
Massively powerful 1,200-watt continuous Class D design with over 4,000 watts of Peak Power.
50% Higher Continuous power output than previous generation
High resolution 295Mhz Analog Devices Audio DSP with double precision 56bit filtering, with over 5x the processing power of our previous subwoofers, the most advanced subwoofer processor available for perfect audio reproduction.
The Switch Mode Power Supply (SMPS) employs dual discrete 65Mhz PMUs (Power Management Unit) that work with the DSP to monitor amplifier output voltage and current, AC main input voltage and current, and numerous temperature sensors. This maximizes system performance and reliability under all operating conditions with optimal efficiency.
DSP runs real time complex power management algorithms, monitoring the real-time power, driver excursion, and current thousands of times per second. This allows the DSP to drive precisely regulated clean voltage, greatest headroom, and maximum current to push the driver's voice coil with optimized efficiency.
Advanced audiophile grade 56bit digital audio processing and premium DACs (Digital-to-Analog Converters) with more than 120 dB Signal-to-Noise Ratio provide greater headroom, lower noise, and flawless fidelity.
Discrete Class D amplifiers create effortless and endless power from four massive 60A 200V MOSFETs, resulting in lower EMI and highest efficiency while providing effortless power each voice coil, producing SPLs and low frequency output with pristine clarity well beyond reference listening levels.
