DESCRIPTION
The DLC-250.8 is an 8-channel amplifier capable of delivering 250W into 4, 8, and 16-ohms from any channel pair, or 125W into 4, 8 or 16-ohms all channels driven; this 1U loudspeaker controller packs new levels of power into minimal rack space. If that weren’t enough, the DLC-250.8 can drive 70V/100V hi-Z loudspeakers direct - no internal transformer is required.
Features
1U 8-channel Amplified Loudspeaker Controller
250W per Channel @ 4, 8, 16-ohms and 70V/100V
125W per Channel @ 4, 8, 16-ohms All Channels Driven
125W per Channel @ 70V/100V All Channels Driven
Power Sharing Between Neighboring Channels
Performance & Control
The DLC-250.8 can drive up to 32 Theory 16-ohm loudspeakers in Lo-Z mode, or up to 128 in Hi-Z mode - all from a 1U chassis! The DLC loudspeaker controllers from Theory can be configured via its on-board web interface accessible via wired Ethernet, or via its on-board WiFi access point and includes parametric EQ, delay, gain and limiter DSP objects to make system optimization easy.
