Description

The GXD 4 from QSC is a power amplifier designed for professional PA systems utilizing speakers with 4 and 8 ohm loads and a maximum output of 1600W. The GXD 4 employs a class D output stage with a universal power supply for high performance and efficiency, while keeping the unit lightweight at 11.3 lbs. The integrated DSP section includes High and Low-Pass filters (24dB LR), 4-band parametric equalizer, signal alignment delay, and RMS/Peak speaker protection limiting.

Great for speaker processing, this power amp features E Series Entertainment System DSP Tunings, and includes precision rotary encoders that allow you to calibrate gain and DSP parameters.

Features

The GXD4 amplifier from QSC is dependable and versatile enough for any professional audio application. Whether you’re installing a house of worship system or building your band’s portable PA, you’ll come to rely on the sound and convenience the GXD4 provides. QSC packs 1600 watts of Class-D power along with flexible digital signal processing – you don’t have to plug in your laptop or lug around racks of outboard gear, you can configure your system right from the amp.

The parallel XLR and 1/4″ TRS input connectors offer broad compatibility with convenient loop-through capabilities, while the professional binding posts and NL4 connector provide mono and bi-amped speaker connections.
