A solid amp at a reasonable price. I'm looking to sell it off in order to look for an entirely different rig--one with a lower-wattage QSC, perhaps. No reason for the switch aside from wanting to try a few of the budget power amps before I drop 500-600 dollars on a big 'un.
This is cosmetically, a bit scratched, but hopefully it'll live in a rack (like mine did). It's an incredible amp, I've experienced only one minor problem with it--overheating at high volumes in a poorly ventilated area. This was solved by not playing at high volumes in a poorly ventilated area (:p ), a rule most amps i've come across should follow. Nothing blew, the amp was only used for a short period, and the rest of the gig went fine once levels were adjusted. It's definitely powerful and consistent, and never once has the "protect" light come on.
Tech Specs:
DCM1000 Power Amp
1000W bridged 4 ohms, 700W bridged 8 ohms.
• Continuous RMS per CH: 8 ohms 225w, 4 ohms 300w, 2 ohms 500w.
• Not rated "pulse power" or at 2 ohms for a few minutes like some amps
• THD 20-20kHz @ rated 90% output: 0.1%, 50% ouput 0.03%.
• High transparent 45v/us slew rate. Studio quality 100 dB S/N ratio.
• INPUTS: 1/4" balanced and female XLR balanced.
• OUTPUTS: 5-way binding post, Speakon(tm) and two 1/4".
• Switches: limiters, ground lift, paralleling inputs, bridge mode.
• Recessed level attenuators, clip, signal, protect and power on indicators.
• Soft-start, DC SpeakerGuard(tm), thermal and short circuit protection relays.
• Variable speed fan. Heavy-duty all steel construction.
• Dynamic low frequency punch with transparent high-end for uncolored sound.
• 2U rackmount 3.5"H x 10"D x 19"W, WT: 25 lbs.
