UK - Proel has announced the UK launch of its first digital switching power amplifiers - the PSW Series. Designed for touring applications, the PSW series has, says Proel, been engineered from the ground up to offer excellent sonic performance from these Class H designs, but also professional ruggedness and reliability. Two models are offered in the range, the 550 watt into 8 ohm PSW1800 and 800 watt into 8 ohm PSW2600, which differ only in output power, otherwise sharing the same advanced features and performance. Specifications include: 20Hz-20kHz response +/- 0.5dB, damping factor >500 @ 8Ohms and S/N 107dB. Both are 19" rackable designs, the PSW 1800 weighing 9kg (19.8lbs), the PSW2600 tipping the scales at 9.5kg (21lbs).
