Enhanced flexibility in 70 V installations
Lab.gruppen’s innovative LUCIA (Localized Utility Compact
systems design. Power, limiting, control and I/O are conveniently

voltage applications.
Fast installation, reliable operation

Pole-mount and rack-mount brackets are available as options. All
connections are detachable, and level setting is available on front-
panel potentiometers as well as via GPI. An advanced protection
potential damage caused by clipping, thermal overload, or extremely
low line voltage. LUCIA’s built-in matrix automatically mixes the
balanced and unbalanced inputs with optimized gain structure.
Selection or mixing of inputs is accommodated by front panel
Integrated DSP for enhanced flexibility
All LUCIA models incorporate comprehensive DSP features, including
need for external mixers and processors in many applications - saving
time and money. A software wizard facilitates fast set-up via USB, a

with no signal input, consuming less than 1 watt. Automatic power-up
occurs within one second after an input signal is sensed, a feature that
often eliminates any need for power sequencers or controllers. If no
loss of initial audio is required (e.g. for an important message), a contact

The peak voltage is 100 V, but the look-ahead limiter solution ensures that it cannot clip, so
in real life use with music or speech it will typically be able to sustain a higher SPL in 100 V
capacity to handle peaks way beyond “clip” without sounding harsh.

1
▸ Comprehensive DSP features – Per channel presets for
high-pass filter, parametric EQ, multi-band compressor,
and look-ahead limiter
▸ Automatic Dynamic Loudness Contouring™ – DSP
automatically adapts to optimize performance at any
output level
▸ Optimized presets – Available for specific loudspeaker models
▸ 2 x 1 mix matrix – Mix two sources to mono or use for
source selection
▸ Configuration software – Windows and Mac software wizard
for initial set-up, and advanced editor for preset configuration
(LUCIA connection via USB)
▸ RS232 – Remote control and monitoring from third party
control solutions
▸ GPIO – Remote control (e.g. wall panel) for channel switching,
level control and integration with paging systems
▸ Efficient Class D amplifier – Patented design for low distortion
and minimal heat dissipation
▸ Compact form factor – Half-rack, 1U chassis and supplied
bracket for discreet on-wall mounting (e.g. behind display screens)
