DESCRIPTION

As the level of sophistication in power
amplifier deSIgns increases, two things
typically result: increased cost and reduced
reliability, The EV AP2600 tworchannel
power amplifier utilizes the best proven
concepts to provide an ultra reliable amplifier
With Virtually unmatched performance
characteristics. It achieves this success
Without increased complexity or cost, making
it a real value,

Each channel delivers 200 watts of con-
tinuous average power into 8 ohms or 300
watts into 4 ohms over full audio frequency
range in the bridge mode. the amplifier can
deliver more than 600 watts at less than
0.10% THD.

Sixteen metal output tranSistors are utilized
for a total deuce power dis5ipatlon of 4.000
watts A dualspeed fan is lncorporated as
an added reliability measure for the most
thermally stressmg situations. The masswe
3/..;-inch heatsink is speCIaIIy engineered to
minimize thermal gradients meaning that all
of the tranSistors Will operate at approximate-
ly the same temperature As a result. the
amplifier runs cooler than most, enabling it to
operate under more adverse enVironmentaI
conditions Without failure. In a typical fixed
installation. this means that the long-term
reliability is substantially increased.

Each channel is independently protected
against. . .

- Over temperature

0 Excesswe output voltage

- Excessive phase shift

- Radio-frequency interference

- Shorted loads

The load is protected from stamp/shutdown
transtents, infrasonic Signals, low ac line
voltage, and dc. When a problem is
detected, an output relay automatically
disconnects the load from the channel and
illuminates the Protect LED located on the
front panel.
