Product description

With four flexible channels of up to 2000 watts each, lightweight PowerLight universal power supply, DSP on-board for each channel, and all the right connectors, the PLD4.5 is ideal for production and live sound applications.

Features

  • Flexible Amplifier Summing Technology™ (FAST) drives most any loudspeaker system or configuration by distributing total amplifier power across one, two, three, or all four channels.
  • Four channels of full function onboard loudspeaker DSP with crossover and parametric EQ filters, limiting and alignment delay eliminate the need for outboard loudspeaker processors.
  • E Series Entertainment System DSP Tunings are now available for PLD processing amplifiers:
