QXD-1K

4 x 250W DSP Enabled Power Amplifier

The QXD1K is a compact 1RU, 4 x 150W Class-D amplifier with bridged output options up to 2 x 300W, including 70V/100V operation. Featuring UMAC™ Class-D technology, it delivers ultra-low distortion, high efficiency, and low power consumption. Optimised for fixed installations, it includes 32bit/96kHz DSP with FIR/IIR filters, peak and RMS limiters, and Quest speaker libraries. A front-panel TFT display, RJ45, and GPIO provide intuitive control and monitoring. Dante™/AES67 compatibility is available via optional expansion. With advanced protection, fan-forced cooling, universal mains, and standby power under 0.5W, the QXD1K is a robust, network-ready amplifier for professional AV environments.
