The HC3200 stereo power amplifier from RCF.
Italy - Designed specifically to complement RCF's Installed Sound Division's ranges of speaker systems, the new RCF HC Series provides leading edge audio quality with three compact models, say the company. The three models in the line are the HC3200 - which offers up to 1600W per channel into 2 ohms (700W per channel into 8 ohms); the HC2000, which provides 1000W per channel into 2 ohms (500W per channel into 8 ohms) and the HC 1600, which gives 800W per channel into 2 ohms (350W per channel into 8 ohms).

According to RCF, these professional stereo power amplifiers are designed using ultra-high efficiency class-H mode topology, providing from 2 x 800W up to 1 x 3200W, at an efficiency of around 85%. A powerful transformer-based power supply and hand-selected components make these power ratings possible with exceptional audio quality and absolute reliability, even in 2 ohm mode, say the company. The PA output stages are fully protected against over-temperature, short circuit and RFI and are equipped with soft start circuit and temperature-controlled fan cooling.

The integral soft clip limiter protects against damage to the connected loudspeakers. The activity of a protective circuit, signal and limiter is shown for each channel by LEDs. Input connections are via two XLR and 2 parallel quarter-inch jacks. Speaker outputs are provided on two Speakon 4-out terminations.
