Extron has announced the immediate availability of NetPA Ultra FX Series 8- and 4-channel configurable output power amplifiers with Dante connectivity and DSP.
Dante connectivity makes it easier to distribute audio from a centralized location to decentralized remote amplifiers throughout a facility, building, or campus using standard network hardware. Integrated audio DSP allows any NetPA Ultra FX amplifier to operate as a complete endpoint with dynamics processing and filters.
The amplifiers are software configurable to support large systems with multiple loudspeaker types by simultaneously driving 8-ohm, 4-ohm, 70-volt, and 100-volt loads. The total power of two adjacent channels is shared, delivering up to 800 watts per single channel, according to model and system requirements.
NetPA Ultra FX amplifiers are equipped with Extron InstaWake technology, offering the ability to return to full power from standby in under 50 milliseconds to ensure no part of the audio is ever cut off.
“As soon as the XPA Ultra FX amplifiers were introduced, we started getting requests for Dante versions,” says Casey Hall, chief marketing officer for Extron. “These amplifiers provide our customers with the high-powered, networked audio solutions they need now.”
