Product Details

PWR-ICE250 2 x 250 Watt DSP ICEpower Plate Amplifier

Introducing the PWR-ICE250, a DSP powered plate amplifier module for active 2 way loudspeakers or mono subwoofers. Result of the collaborative effort of two innovative technology companies, the PWR-ICE250 core features include:

• On the processing side is miniDSP's innovative software & firmware allowing a Plug & Play real time control of the onboard DSP over Ethernet/Wifi networks. Using our Zero Conf technology, multiple modules are automatically discovered and controlled from a single User interface in real time. The platform is supported under Mac and Windows environment.The onboard Digital Signal Processors (DSP) provide real time all the processing a speaker designers will expect to excel at his crossover design task. These include FIR + IIR filters, Parametric Equalizers (PEQ), Level, crossovers, comp/limiter, delay and more. The Graphical User Interface (GUI) platform is supported on both Mac and Windows environment.
• On the power amplifier side, the ICEpower® 250ASX2 modules are complete AC plug-to-speaker amplification audio solutions offering flexible two-channel or bridgeable speaker drive. Their compact size, audiophile audio quality and high power output make them perfect for high-performing audio products. The amplifier is rated for up to 2x250W @ 4Ω or 1 x 500W @ 8Ω

As for audio connectivity, the PWR-ICE250 is fitted with both analog balanced (XLR) & unbalanced inputs (RCA) to provide maximum compatibility. A digital input (AES-EBU/SPDIF) saves on the A-D conversion for maximum performance while a Digital output (AES-EBU/SPDIF) allows multiple plate amplifiers to be linked to each other.
