Proel Debuts HPX Power Amplifier at ProLight + Sound

At Prolight + Sound 2011, Proel debuted HPX, a series of high-end power amplifiers. The four models -- HPX 900, HPX1200, HPX2400, HPX2800 -- with output ranging from 900 - 2,800W using power stages in Class AB and Class H and switching power supplies, maintain clarity and definition in the high-frequency range and impressive dynamics in the low end, the company says. All of these models are capable of providing their maximum rated power on a two-ohm load, making them a very convenient source of power in even the most demanding sound reinforcement applications, the company adds.

Lightweight and easily manageable, the HPX series amplifiers offer practicality as one of their primary features. Their switching mode power supplies and efficient cooling systems make them particularly suited for use in compact and portable systems and, at the same time, make them reliable and durable even after years of intense use, the company says.

A selectable LPN (low-pass notch) filter allows for improved low-frequency response, guaranteeing more punch and greater dynamics, while simultaneously protecting the connected speakers from over-excursion. The front panel, which offers convenient, die-cast handles and a removable dust filter, provides a comprehensive system of LED status indicators and indexed level controls.

The HPX amplifiers can be employed as professional amplification systems in a wide range of applications, and are suitable for both rental companies and for high-end permanent installations. All of the HPX models are conceived for use in satellite systems in combination with all of the Proel passive speaker lines, but are particularly adapted for use with the Neos, Net, Flash, and SW series enclosures.

The entire HPX Series will be shipping in the late spring of 2011.
