DAP-Audio CA-4500 DSP Compact 4-channel amplifier (4x 500 W) - DSP driven

The DAP CA-4500 DSP is a high power digital 4-channel amplifier with 500 W in 4 Ohm and four 500 watt speakON outputs. It can drive a 70/100 V speaker system and can deliver two channels of 1000 watt each in bridge mode. This amplifier is especially suitable for the installation market.

The CA-4500 includes a powerful DSP. All parameters, such as 8-band EQ settings, delay, compression, noise gate and more, are configurable manually or via included software on any Windows PC/laptop. Besides, all four inputs and output channels are freely routable.

This amplifier not only has many functionalities but is also safe to use thanks to advanced protection circuits, such as soft start technology and a clip limiter. All of this fits in a compact 19-inch design with a 1 unit height.Technical data:
