More about RCF’s IPS Power Amplifiers
IPS Series is a range of two-way professional amplifiers that combines high quality performance and reliability with the latest power amplifications technologies. This high value power-to-cost designs offer, in compact lightweight 2 rack unit space, the sound quality and the durability of traditional class AB and class H designs with the innovation of the latest power devices available.
IPS are high-performance, versatile 2U power amplifiers for install applications, using sophisticated Class-H topology for two single-channel outputs, two parallel outputs, or a single-channel bridge operativity. High quality, low distortion audio output, flawless reliability and safety, industry-standard speakON connectors, and binding post terminals make IPS Series electronics the workhorse solution for mobile sound systems and permanent installation applications.
Class-H amplifiers modulate the supply voltage to the amplifier output devices so that it is never higher than necessary to support the signal swing. This reduces dissipation across the output devices connected to that supply and allows the amplifier to operate with an optimized efficiency, regardless of output power level. Up to full power, a Class-H design will require less energy than a pure class AB design, and is better suited for high-power applications.
With a very high signal-to-noise ratio, IPS amplifiers also boast a very low total harmonic distortion, making it perfect for highly demanding music applications hence delivering perfect vocal intelligibility.
IPS Amplifiers implement several safety strategies protecting both the amplifier and the sound system, including an effective peak limiting protection for the transducers. The temperature-controlled continuous variable speed double-fan system (front to back), combined with the high-efficiency heat sinks, allows the amplifier to maintain the optimal working temperature, no matter the environmental temperature or the power output. The circuit is protected from overheating and short circuits, also including protections against infrasonic DC and Very High Frequency (VHF) peaks from non-musical signals that could damage transducers.
All amplifier modules are subjected to rigorous quality testing during the production process. Each device is quality controlled with automated equipment and human supervision. Our QC process ensures that every individual amplifier module performs at best off the production line and into the box. This unique system ensures extremely tight quality loops, securing a high overall quality level.
