User manual CREST AUDIO PA150 SPECIFICATIONS

[. . . ] PATM 150 power amplifier description The PA 150 is a rugged, medium-power amplifier with features that make it stand alone in the industry. It's a rack-mountable unit which occupies only one rack space, and yet packs a 75 W RMS per channel punch into 4, 8, or 16 Ohms. [. . . ] (10. 0 kg) damping factor (typical value) hum and noise power consumption dimensions and weight Architectural and Engineering Specifications The amplifier shall have two channels, each capable of producing an output of more than 75 Watts RMS into 4, 8, or 16 Ohm loads, both channels operating from 20 Hz to 20 kHz continuously at less than 0. 1% THD. In bridge mode, the amplifier shall be capable of producing an output of more than 150 W RMS into 8, 16, or 32 Ohm loads, operating from 20 Hz to 20 kHz continuously at less than 0. 1% THD. Full output shall be achieved by an input signal of not more than 1. 0 V RMS (0 dBV) per channel. Each channel shall be equipped with unique compression circuitry that electronically senses the onset of clipping and engages a specially designed circuit which virtually eliminates the possibility of driving the amplifier into clipping or distortion. An LED shall indicate when this patented SPSTM compression is activated. Each channel shall have a +0, -1 dB frequency response from 10 Hz to 40 kHz at 1 W RMS into 4 Ohms and a +0, 0. 2 dB frequency response from 20 Hz to 20 kHz at 75 W RMS into 4 Ohms, and shall have a slew rate of at least 15 Volts per microsecond. The total harmonic distortion shall be less that 0. 1% at 75 W RMS into 4 Ohms from 20 Hz to 20 kHz, and the hum and noise shall be at least 100 dB below full rated output power measured 20 Hz to 20 kHz with a 600 Ohm input termination. The amplifier shall be stable into any load configuration with any combination of open or grounded input connections. It shall be short, mismatch, or open-circuit proof. It shall have massive aluminum heat sinks that are convection cooled and a thermal shutdown system to protect the amplifier from over-temperature operation. This thermal protection system shall be automatic and self-resetting. The amplifier shall have all input and output patching capabilities on the rear panel. [. . . ] The published specifications shall be met or exceeded. Crest Audio Inc. 100 Eisenhower Dr. , Paramus NJ 07652 USA TEL: 201. 909. 8700 FAX: 201. 909. 8744 http://www. crestaudio. com [. . . ]
