RCF IPS 2.5K - 2 x 1250W at 4-Ohm Power Amplifier with XLR Inputs and Outputs in Black Finish

The RCF IPS 2.5K is a professional-grade, high-performance 2-channel power amplifier designed to meet the demands of both mobile sound systems and permanent installation applications. Utilizing the latest Class-H power amplification technology, the IPS 2.5K delivers exceptional audio performance with up to 2 x 1250 watts at 4 ohms, offering a powerful and reliable solution for audio professionals. The amplifier's design ensures that it operates with high efficiency and minimal energy wastage, thanks to the Class-H topology, which modulates the supply voltage to the amplifier output devices, ensuring that it is always optimized for the signal swing and preventing unnecessary dissipation.

Equipped with two independent channels, the IPS 2.5K allows versatile use in stereo, parallel, and bridge modes, making it adaptable to a wide range of audio applications. Each channel comes with independent gain control, signal, clip, and fault indicators for precise monitoring of performance. The amplifier features industry-standard XLR input connectors, which allow for balanced signal transmission, as well as speakON and binding post output connectors for reliable speaker connections. With its comprehensive protection features, including short circuit, thermal, DC, and Very High Frequency (VHF) protection, the IPS 2.5K is designed to protect both the amplifier and connected transducers from damage, ensuring reliable operation even in demanding environments.

With a frequency response range of 20 Hz to 22 kHz, the IPS 2.5K delivers crisp, clear, and full-range audio, making it ideal for applications where accurate sound reproduction is essential. The amplifier also features a temperature-controlled continuous variable speed double-fan cooling system, paired with high-efficiency heat sinks, to ensure that it maintains optimal working temperature, even under heavy load or in extreme environmental conditions. This cooling system helps prevent overheating, further enhancing the reliability of the amplifier in long-term use.

Designed for professional environments, the RCF IPS 2.5K comes in a 19" 2U rack-mountable chassis, making it easy to integrate into existing systems. The robust metal construction and sleek black finish ensure durability, while the easy-to-use front panel and DIP switches provide convenient configuration options for users. Whether used for live sound reinforcement, permanent installations, or studio applications, the IPS 2.5K provides exceptional power output, low distortion, and robust protection features, making it a go-to solution for demanding audio environments.
