INTRODUCTION
Suitable for portable sound reinforcement or fixed installations, the series feature 4 models that deliver between 350W
and 300W per channel into a 4 ohm load in a rugged 2U, 9” rack mount enclosure. An advanced transformer power
supply and Class AB/H topology deliver high power with low distortion in a compact and light weight form factor.
A full suite of protection includes thermal, over-current, DC, short circuit protect and power on/off mute. The CPD Series
