QSC PL380 2 channels, 1500 watts/ch at 8Ω, 2600 watts/ch at 4Ω, 4000 watts/ch at 2Ω
QSC's PowerLight 3 Series is designed professionally for the most demanding live-sound reinforcement and concert applications. The QSC PL380 is featuring the all-time and ground breaking PowerLight™ power supply technology which is reducing the weight dramatically, improving the audio quality and eliminating AC mains hum. Comprehensive monitoring and remote control can also be achieved by the use of the Q-SYS networked platform.
- Class D topology provides efficient performance at extreme power loads
- Three-position Input Sensitivity switch ensures gain-matching with existing amp racks and power systems
- User defeatable clip limiters and selectable low-frequency filters (30 Hz, 50 Hz, Bypass)
- DataPort connection supports external amplifier control and monitoring via Q-SYS
- XLR and Block Input connectors and Binding post or Neutrik speakON® Output connectors
- Comprehensive internal protection protects amplifiers and loudspeakers against over-current, over-temperature and clipping – without compromising program signal
Features
- PowerLight switch-mode power supply for highest efficiency and improved audio performance
- Flow-through air path and solid aluminum heat sinks for maximum cooling
- DataPort supports remote network control and monitoring via Q-SYS
- Detented gain controls with 1-dB steps for precise calibration
- Removable knobs with lock-out security plate to prevent unauthorized tampering
- User defeatable clip limiters and selectable low-frequency filter per channel (3 Hz, 30 Hz, or 50 Hz)
- Three selectable gain structures (26 dB, 32 dB, or 1.2 V)
- Front and rear panel LEDs indicate status of switch settings at a glance
- Parallel XLR/M and XLR/F connectors for simple loop-through connectivity
- Neutrik Speakon® and "Touch-Proof" binding post outputs
- Neutrik Powercon® power cable remains secure on the road
- 3 year warranty, plus optional 3 year extended service contract
- Linear Class H output circuit offer double the typical efficiency of Class B, reducing AC current consumption and cooling requirements
