The RMX Series
amplifiers offer great reliability, and rugged construction, while
giving a clean and powerful QSC sound. The RMX Series is
also very affordable which has made them one of the best selling
lines in QSC history.
Muscular Power Plant
The power supply is the heart of an amplifier, converting raw
AC power from the wall to clean DC for the audio circuitry. The
RMX uses a powerful high-current toroidal transformer and ample
filter capacitance to ensure generous energy reserves. This makes
a critical difference in sound quality, allowing the amp to
effortlessly punch out high level transients, even when driving
abusive 2-ohm speaker loads.
Superior Performance
RMX amplifiers deliver true studio-quality sound. A full
complementary output circuit using the highest-grade linear output
devices delivers ultra-low distortion ( <0.05% THD) & a
ruler-flat frequency response. SMT (Surface Mount Technology)
triples small-signal component density, enabling us to pack up to
2400 watts of power in a chassis only 2 rack spaces & less
than 16" deep. And unlike other designs, RMX output devices
are direct-mounted to the heat sink for optimum thermal coupling
& cooling.
Comprehensive Features
The RMX Series is packed full of professional features that
increase performance and flexibility:
- The RMX 1850HD provides
improved thermal performance that gives you higher continuous
power in 2-ohms stereo or 4-ohms bridged applications (a RMX
1850HD exclusive!)
- Independent defeatable
clip limiters reduce distortion without sacrificing peak
performance.
- Selectable
low-frequency filters boost system response, protect speakers
and ensure low-end tightness by more precisely matching the
amplifier's range to the loudspeakers.
- Barrier strip, XLR and
1/4" balanced inputs plus Speakon and binding post
outputs provide easy connections.
- Low-noise variable
speed fans with rear-to-front air flow keep amplifiers and
racks cool.
Proven Reliability
With over 30 years of building amplifiers for the largest
touring companies and venues around the world, you can count on
QSC's reputation for designing the most reliable amps available.
