Behringer EPQ 1200

Professional, lightweight 1200W stereo power amplifier from EPQ series that integrates the ATR (Accelerated Transient Response) technology for ultimate punch and clarity – it takes huge pulses of energy (current and voltage) to propel a woofer cone out fast enough to match a bass beat. By carefully selecting transistors with extremely high slew rates and optimizing other proprietary parts of the circuitry, this amplifier is able to react instantly to even the most demanding electronic bass impulses. It also features rail tracking for effectively modulating the power supply rails with only the peaks of the input signal. This technology has revolutionized pro audio amp designs with its outstanding performance and efficiency. When combined with switching-mode power supplies that do away with heavy toroid transformers, this design provides more dynamic punch and, because it is much more efficient, runs cooler and does not require huge, heavy heat sink. The amplifier is equipped with an ultra-light, ultra-low noise and ultra-efficient switch-mode power supply for noise-free audio, superior transient response and low power consumption. Switchable limiters offer maximum output level with reliable overload protection, while detented gain controls allow for precise setting and matching of sensitivity. Other features include precise Power, Signal and Limit LEDs to monitor performance; XLR, 6.3mm TRS and RCA input connectors for compatibility with any source; and professional speaker connectors and ''touch-proof'' binding posts support most speaker wiring systems. It also offers a built-in Subwoofer/Satellite crossover for more flexibility and independent DC and thermal overload protection on each channel that automatically protects amplifier and speakers without shutting down the show. The ''back-to-front'' ventilation system includes air filter for reliable operation. “Built-like-a-tank'', impact-resistant and all-steel 2U rackmount chassis with minimum depth chassis (257 mm) and ultra-light weight design (6.7 kg), fits into compact, inexpensive effects racks.
