KDA-500
HIGH PERFORMANCE POWER PLATFORM
The Klipsch KDA Series DSP Ampliers offer legendary
Klipsch power and performance in a sleek, high-tech, 1
rack unit solution. The KDA-500 offers 500W of class G/H
power, for clean, dynamic power in any type of install.
70V / 100V / LOW IMPEDANCE COMPATIBILITY
From small residential systems to massive commercial installs,
the Klipsch KDA-500 is designed for maximum install exibility
– offering low impedance and 70V/100V compatibility for
distributed line applications. These impedance settings are
fully independant from channel to channel – so an installer
can run one channel low impedance with another channel
70V/100V for full customization and optimization of their system.
FLEXIBLE I/O
The KDA-500 boasts fully matrixed 4x4 I/O with fully balanced
Phoenix connector inputs and Phoenix speaker outputs capable
of connecting up to 12 gauge wire. For non-balanced connections,
RCA inputs and outputs (throughs) are also built-in, making the
KDA-500 one of the most exible power solutions on the market today.
STATE-OF-THE-ART DSP CONTROL AND SET-UP
The myriad I/O, impedance, and acoustic settings are fully matrixed
and customizable through the web-based DSP menu - simply plug in a
laptop computer to the RJ-45 port on the back panel of the amplier,
enter the assigned IP address into your favorite web browser to pull
up the easy-to-use, streamlined menu page. In addition to password
protected channel assignments, gain settings, EQ, and limiting,
the DSP provides presets for almost every Klipsch speaker on the
market – optimizing acoustic performance and power handling for
these products with a single click. Accessing the DSP wirelessly
with a tablet, smartphone, or computer is also quick and easy when
the KDA amplier is plugged into the network’s wireless router.
