i-Tech 5000 HD Power Amplifier

Innovation: • BSS Omnidrive HD™ DSP processing with FIR filters • LCD screen provides diagnostics and preset selection to ensure fast and easy system and network setup • Covered by five patents • Fan has true tach feedback for fan fault protection and precise control over thermal performance, so the amp runs longer and harder than the competition • Includes SLM (Sweep Load Monitoring) with system-level diagnostics Versatility • Global Power Supply designed to deliver maximum power no matter where your schedule takes you. Universal AC input accepts100-240VAC, 50/60 Hz (±15%). • Front-panel USB connector transfers presets to/from a USB drive to the amp’s DSP • New software interface based on customer feedback manages presets, provides easier system-level changes, and includes a configuration wizard • The only product available with analog, AES/EBU, CobraNet, HiQnet and Ethernet connectivity standard • User definable front-panel security feature Power • Professional-grade connectors for all inputs and outputs • Full rail voltage is always available, allowing instantaneous power on demand • Quality-graded components let you safely drive the amplifier harder • More total capacitance provides tremendous energy reserves for power bursts • Highest output voltage in the industry (200V peak) provides clean transient peaks Performance • Ultra smooth processing by onboard high-definition BSS Omnidrive HD™ DSP with 24-bit, 192 kHz Cirrus Logic SHARC A/D and D/A converters. World-class FIR filters • Level Max™ peak voltage and RMS power limiters communicate with each other, resulting in smooth and accurate response, better sound • True Ethernet backbone –fast, reliable and scalable • High common-mode rejection eliminates hum and RFI on input cables • 5th-generation patented Class-I (BCA®) circuitry couples power efficiently to the load and provides low AC current draw Frequency Response (at 1 watt, 20 Hz - 20 kHz): ±0.25dB. Signal to Noise Ratio below rated full-bandwidth power, A-weighted: > 112 dB. Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) at full rated power: < 0.1%. Intermodulation Distortion (IMD) 60 Hz and 7 kHz at 4:1, from full rated output to –35 dB: < 0.2%. Damping Factor (20 Hz to 100 Hz at 8 ohms): > 5000. Crosstalk (below rated power, 20 Hz to 1 kHz): > 80 dB. Common Mode Rejection (CMR) (20 Hz to 1 kHz): > 70 dB typical. Latency (analog, digital inputs): 1.13 mS analog, 1.81 mS digital (96 kHz). A/D, D/A Converters: 24-bit 96 kHz Cirrus Logic. Digital Input: AES/EBU, 24-bit, 32-96 kHz. Onboard sample-rate converter. Network: Onboard TCP/IQ and HiQnet, compatible with standard 100 Mb Ethernet hardware. DSP: 24-bit conversion with 32-bit, floating-point DSP processing. Has 64 assignable filters with 9 different filter types. Includes all-pass filters, over 2 seconds of delay available per channel, and dual uncorrelated-noise and sine-wave generators. Load Impedance: (Note: Safe with all types of loads) Stereo: 1/2/4/8/16 ohms. Bridge Mono: 2/4/8 ohms. Input Sensitivity (referenced to 8 ohm rated output): Adjustable in 0.1V steps from 1.4V to 7.75V. Required AC Mains: Universal AC input, 100-240VAC, 50/60 Hz (±15%). Maximum AC mains voltage 277VAC. AC Line Connector: Five cordsets supplied with amplifier (USA, UK, European, Australia, India). Front Panel Indicators, Controls and Connectors Indicators: Bridge mode, Ready, Signal level, Clip, Thermal error, Fault, Network data, Power, AC mains. LCD Control Screen and Controls: These let the user adjust the amplifier’s attenuation and muting, configure the amp, set up and view error monitoring (such as temperature and load supervision), set IP and HiQnet addresses from the front panel, and recall DSP presets. The presets allow the user to quickly reconfigure the amp for various applications. Level Controls (Encoders): Speed-sensitive rotary encoders, 0.5 dB steps, range 0 to –100 dB. These two knobs affect the Channel-1 and Channel-2 output levels. They also select Menu items and adjust parameter values that are displayed on the LCD Control Screen. Power Switch: Push-on/push-off switch with built-in green AC mains present indicator. USB 2.0 Connector: Accepts a USB drive to transfer presets from the drive to the amplifier DSP, and vice versa. Back Panel Connectors, Controls, and Indicators Connectors: Balanced XLR analog, balanced analog XLR loop-thru outputs, AES/EBU digital input, AES/EBU digital lop-ghrough output, 4-Pole Speakon output connecors, binding post output connectors, power cord, Ethernet connector for networking via HiQnet or CobraNet. Reset Switch/Circuit Breaker: If the current draw of the amplifier exceeds safe limits, this breaker automatically connects the power supply from the AC mains. The switch resets the circuit breaker. Preset Indicator: LED flashes to signal the number of the current preset if active. LED is green if the preset values have not been changed once loaded. LED is yellow if the preset values have been changed since they were loaded. Construction Cooling: Dual-zone, microprocessor controlled, continuously variable speed fans, front-to-back airflow.
