Yamaha IPA8200 8-Channel Audio Amplifier

Yamaha IPA8200 8-Channel Audio Amplifier

The IPA8200 is an installation dedicated power amplifier using Class D technology. Efficiency of conventional Class AB or Class H amplifiers is in the range of 20% to 30%, meaning that 70% to 80% of electricity drawn is lost as heat. Class D technology greatly improves efficiency to over 60%. Higher efficiency not only means the amplifier will require less power to run, but will dissipate considerably less heat. As a result, the amplifier is much smaller in size, saving precious rack space in an installation. Lower heat dissipation also reduces stress put on each component part in the amplifier and will prolong product life of the amplifier. The IPA8200 is a perfect match for use with the IMX644 rack mount mixer or the Installation Series range speakers various installations from bars, restaurants, retail stores, to corporate meeting rooms and auditoriums. 8 x 200W (into 4 ohms) in a 2U Euroblock input and barrier strip output Pairs of channels can be driven in Stereo, Parallel, or Bridged modes Pairs of channels have separate internal power supplies; less chance of losing all eight channels in case of failure Versatile gain settings: Selectable gain +26dB or 32dB, or constant sensitivity of +4dBu Internal HPF selectable between OFF/20Hz/55Hz

Features:

• Efficient class-D design delivers 8 x 200W (4 ohms) of top-quality power in a 2U rack-mount unit.
• A perfect match for the rack-mount IMX644 Installation Mixer and Yamaha’s Installation Series speakers.
• Ideal for a variety of installations, from simple bar/restaurant or corporate meeting room systems to larger theater audio systems.
• Euroblock input and barrier strip output.
• Channel pairs can be driven in stereo, parallel, or bridged modes.
• Independent power supplies for each pair of channels reduce the risk of losing all eight channels in case of a failure in one channel.
• Selectable 26dB or 32dB gain, or constant +4dBu sensitivity settings allow the amplifier to be used in different audio systems with optimal gain structure.
• Built-in HPF switchable to 20Hz or 55Hz facilitates connection to speakers of different capacities without the need for external processors.
