One of the most technologically advanced subwoofer amplifiers on the market! This new subwoofer amplifier is based on state-of-the-art Class G circuit topology that combines the proven high power, high fidelity characteristics of a Class AB amplifier with a patented tracking down converter power supply to achieve an operating efficiency up to 86%. You get the efficiency of a Class D amplifier without compromising audio quality and reliability. The class AB output stage provides the clean and low-distortion sound that audiophiles demand, without any instability problems of other high-efficiency amplifier designs. This American designed and engineered amplifier uses patented circuitry that continuously tracks the input signal to modulate or control the voltage available to the output stage. This "tracking" capability delivers the exact amount of power based on demand instead of constantly keeping it in reserve, so the output stage only draws the amount of power that is required at any given time. This means less energy is wasted as heat, and more power is available for the subwoofer driver. High power Class AB output stage Patented tracking downconverter power supply Full parametric bass EQ Phase reversal switch Auto On/Off Advanced soft clip circuitry Toroidal power supply transformer Power output: 512 watts RMS @ 8 ohms, 1024 watts RMS @ 4 ohms S/N ratio: 98 dB (A-weighted) Low-pass crossover: 30 - 200 Hz, 24 dB/octave Auto On/Off Dimensions: 11-15/16" W x 11-15/16" H x 5-1/4" D
Isn't QSC a Monster subsidiary?
Parts Express sells the QSC amps at a good discount. Apart from the power, the plate amp has the electronic crossover and equalizer. You can get these things on the QSC but the minimum tab would be higher, and since their xover uses plug-in modules instead of continuously variable control, QSC is less flexible. QSC and Monster are not related.
...It retails for $685 but it gives you a whole lot of processing power ...
