The flagship of QSC’s PowerLight series, the PL380 is a refined, all-switchmode, two-channel amplifier. With its innovative power supply technology in a lightweight build, the PL380 eliminates AC mains hum and improves audio quality. Combining a pair of 4000-watt Class D amplifier channels for a total of 8000 watts, this amp delivers more than twice as much audio power as its fellow PowerLight amps, while its sonic signature is characterized by immense headroom that handles the most difficult loads without stress or tonal changes.
Everything about the PL380 is designed with efficiency, performance, and safety in mind. Reactive “back EMF” from the speaker is recycled to the power supply. “Plug-to-plug” efficiency minimizes AC power needs so more energy can be diverted to the speaker. This amp offers 20 Hz – 20 kHz audio performance along with complete protection from normal hazards. Its silent, surge-free on-off switching contributes to keeping things running safely.
Connect the PL308 to a Q-SYS networked platform to achieve comprehensive remote control and monitoring of your sound system. Simpler DSP requirements can be met with the DSP-4 processing module. (Additional components sold separately.)
