Behringer Ultra-Lightweight, 12000-Watt Power Amplifier

Product Description

Description:

The Behringer iNUKE NU12000 Ultra-Lightweight High-Density 12000W Power Amplifier utilizes high-density Class-D technology and efficient switch-mode power supplies to deliver 12000W of peak power. Specifically, the amplifier is rated at 2 x 6,000W at 2Ω, 2 x 3400W at 4 Ω, 2 x 1700W at 8 Ω, and weighs less than 26.5 lb (12.0kg).

The high-efficiency circuit design runs cool and does not require the massive heat sinks and heavy toroid transformers of some other amplifier designs. The front panel features positive-detent controls and LED indicator lights for showing when a signal is present or clipping and needs to be reduced.

The rear panel features combo XLR and 1/4" TRS input connectors making the amplifier compatible with a wide variety of different sources, balanced or unbalanced. Professional twist-lock Speakon connectors are provided to ensure a reliable and efficient transfer of power to your loudspeakers.

The rear panel also has the switches that enable the amplifier to work in Dual Mono, Stereo, or Mono Bridge mode. A built-in crossover switch enables the amplifier to operate in either full-range or biamp mode, sending low-frequency content to passive subwoofers.
