Powersoft has made two additions to its T Series touring amplifier platform that will allow the company to almost entirely replace its K Series.
Since its introduction 18 years ago, the K Series has become one of the most widely used amplifiers on the market, receiving high praise for its lasting audio quality, power density, efficiency, and stable and long-term power. Building on this legacy, Powersoft introduced the T Series in 2019, bringing ‘next generation specs’ for amplifiers in live sound applications, as well as setting new long-term benchmarks such as daisy-chained Ethernet connectivity; Dante audio networking; Power sharing; Improved DSP with powerful Advanced EQ groups, and FIR filtering for great sounding presets.
The new T902 and T904 have been introduced to extend the applications of the T Series even further, allowing it to cover the requirements for any system deployment, including larger scale live sound applications.
The T902 is a dual-channel amplifier specified to deliver 4kW at 2Ω, 3.2kW at 4Ω, or 1.8kW at 8Ω, and its high rail voltage and peak current on the outputs make it suitable for large 4Ω subwoofers (like dual 18-inch) or two- and three-way line sources. Onboard DSP with Raised Cosine, IRR and FIR filters and precision delay, suited the T902 to powering and controlling complex cardioid sub-woofer arrangements and complex three-way line sources.
The other new addition to the T Series family is the 4-channel T904, which can deliver 1.8kW at 2Ω, 2kW at 4Ω, or 1.6kW at 8Ω. This amplifier platform is designed to power bi-amped systems like stage monitors, two-way point source speakers, and two-way line sources, as well as smaller sub woofers.
Much like the rest of the T Series family, the new T902 and T904 feature onboard DSP, in-built Dante inputs, and live impedance monitoring, as well as Powersoft’s Active DampingControl for cable resistance compensation.
‘Most live sound amplifier families will feature lower voltages for smaller and lower cost products,’ says Powersoft Application Engineering team manager, Marc Kocks,. ‘In smaller systems, however, it is quite common to have a single 8Ω loudspeaker per channel. This presented an opportunity for our development team to make a very homogenous amplifier range in which all models can deliver the same high output voltage, so that smaller models can also play “full SPL” on 8Ω speakers.
‘This makes the smaller models more affordable by saving in the power supply and output current capacity, while providing a solid feature set for the entire product family. With the addition of the T902 and T904 to the T-series it will be able to serve as a flexible and reliable workhorse for any live sound system.’
