About the EAW CAZ1400 Stereo Power Amp
The EAW CAZ1400 is a high-performance, two-channel professional power amplifier engineered to deliver robust and reliable audio reinforcement in demanding fixed installation and touring applications. It is built upon a sophisticated Class D amplifier topology, which provides exceptional efficiency and power output while significantly reducing heat generation and physical weight compared to traditional Class AB designs. This amplifier is designed to drive a wide variety of loudspeakers with precision, offering installers and sound engineers a versatile tool for systems ranging from background music and paging to primary sound reinforcement in venues such as houses of worship, theaters, and clubs.
Advanced signal processing and system protection features are integral to the amplifier's design, ensuring both optimal performance and longevity of connected loudspeakers. The unit incorporates proprietary protection circuitry that guards against common failure modes such as overheating, short circuits, and DC offset, while also providing intelligent limiting to prevent amplifier clipping. Comprehensive control and monitoring are facilitated through both front-panel interfaces and optional digital networking, allowing for remote adjustment of parameters like gain, equalization, and output delay, making it a manageable component within larger, centralized audio systems.
The CAZ1400 is housed in a rugged, ventilated steel chassis that supports standard 19-inch rack mounting. Its efficient thermal management, including a variable-speed fan, ensures quiet operation suitable for noise-sensitive environments. The combination of high current output, low distortion, and transparent sonic character makes this amplifier capable of reproducing audio with clarity and impact, faithfully translating the source material without coloration. It represents a balanced fusion of raw power, intelligent control, and practical reliability, engineered to form the dependable cornerstone of professional audio systems.
