About the Lab Gruppen PLM 20K44 BP_002 20,000W Amplifier with 4 Flexible Output-Channels on Binding Post Connectors, Lake Digital Signal Processing and Digital Audio Networking for Touring Applications
The Lab Gruppen PLM 20K44 is a monumental touring-grade amplifier that sets a new benchmark for power, flexibility, and intelligent system integration in large-scale sound reinforcement. Engineered for the most demanding live concert tours, major festivals, and high-profile fixed installations, this amplifier delivers a staggering 20,000 watts of total output power distributed across four exceptionally flexible and configurable channels. At its core is Lab Gruppen's renowned Lake digital signal processing, which provides exhaustive system optimization tools—including linear phase crossovers, advanced FIR filtering, precision EQ, dynamics, and delay—directly within the amplifier itself. This integration eliminates the need for external system processors, reducing rack space, system complexity, and potential points of failure, while ensuring flawless alignment and control of the loudspeaker system.
The amplifier's four output channels are not fixed in their power rating; instead, they utilize Lab Gruppen's patented Power Share technology, which dynamically allocates the massive power reservoir to the channels that need it most in real-time. This allows the amplifier to drive a wide variety of loudspeaker configurations, from high-power low-frequency arrays to sensitive high-frequency compression drivers, with optimal efficiency and protection. The specified Binding Post (BP) output connectors provide robust, high-current connections suitable for the heaviest gauge speaker cable used in touring. Digital audio networking is integral to the design, with support for primary formats like Dante and AES67, enabling seamless, multi-channel audio transport over standard IP networks and straightforward integration into modern digital audio ecosystems.
Housed in a heavy-duty 4RU chassis built for the rigors of the road, the PLM 20K44 features comprehensive monitoring, control, and redundancy features. Its advanced cooling system ensures reliable operation under extreme load conditions. Configuration and real-time monitoring are performed via intuitive, dedicated software, offering deep diagnostic insight and remote control capabilities. The Lab Gruppen PLM 20K44 BP_002 represents the pinnacle of amplifier technology, combining brute-force power with unparalleled processing intelligence and networking prowess. It is the definitive choice for audio professionals who require absolute reliability, sonic precision, and total system control for the world's largest and most critical audio applications.
