Muscular Power Plant:
The power supply is the heart of an amplifier, converting raw AC power from the wall to clean DC for the audio circuitry. The RMX uses a powerful high-current toroidal transformer and ample filter capacitance to ensure generous energy reserves. This makes a critical difference in sound quality, allowing the amp to effortlessly punch out high level transients, even when driving abusive 2-ohm speaker loads.
Superior Performance
RMX amplifiers deliver true studio-quality sound. A full complementary output circuit using the highest-grade linear output devices delivers ultra-low distortion (<0.05% THD) and a ruler-flat frequency response. SMT (Surface Mount Technology) triples small-signal component density, enabling us to pack up to 2400 watts of power in a chassis only 2 rack spaces and less than 16" deep. And unlike other designs, RMX output devices are direct-mounted to the heat sink for optimum thermal coupling and cooling.
Features
Independent defeatable clip limiters reduce distortion without sacrificing peak performance.
Selectable low-frequency filters boost system response, protect speakers, and ensure low-end tightness by more precisely matching the amplifier's range to the loudspeakers.
Barrier strip, XLR, and 1/4" balanced inputs plus Speakon and binding post outputs provide easy connections.
Low-noise variable speed fans with rear-to-front air flow keep amplifiers and racks cool.
