Where to buy?

The DPA616 is a professional sixteen channel power amplifier which is capable of delivering a power of 60 Watt to 4 Ohm loads connected to the 16 output channels. When used in bridge mode, it can deliver a power of 120 Watt to 8 Ohm loads connected to the 8 bridged outputs. This way, the DPA616 is the perfect solution for installed multi-zone audio distribution systems with 8 or 16 zones. This amplifier is designed as a no-nonsense amplifier with only the necessary controls and connections which creates great simplicity in use and installation. The input connections are all performed with 3-pin Terminal block connectors, allowing the connection of balanced input signals. Every channel is fitted with a separate gain control potentiometer and for every two input connectors, there is a stereo / bridge & parallel switch provided whereby two channels can be bridged or linked in parallel, avoiding a cable clutter when multiple channels should be fed with the same input signal. The output connections are performed with 4-pin Terminal block connectors allowing connections for separate or bridged output channels. A built-in multipurpose protection circuit protects against DC malfunction, short circuit, overheating, overload and limits the signal when necessary. This all is housed in a double rack space, steel 19” rack mount housing.

FAQ

Answer

As the power consumption of an amplifier, strongly depends on how hard the amplifier is driven, measurements are provided for various loads: idle, 1/8 of average full power, 1/3 of average full power, and full power.

Idle 
Current draw at idle or with very low signal level

1/8 Power: Pink Noise
Amplifiers are tested using pink noise signals to simulate real-world speech and music signals.  It approximates operating with music or voice with light clipping and represents the amplifier's typical "clean" maximum level, without audible clipping. This 1/8 power signal provides a very good approximation of how hard an amplifier would be driven by typical real-world speech/music signals, assuming those signals were being driven as loud as possible without clipping the amplifier.

1/3 Power: Pink Noise
1/3 Power Pink Noise is similar to 1/8 Power Pink Noise, except that it is a significantly more powerful input signal. It approximates operating with music or voice with very heavy clipping and a very compressed dynamic range. This 1/3 power signal provides an approximation of how hard an amplifier would be driven by typical real-world speech/music signals, assuming those signals were being driven loud enough to clip the amplifier heavily, and produce severe, audible distortion.

Full Power
Current draw at full power is measured with a sine wave at its maximum possible level. However, it does not represent any real-world operating condition and represents the absolute extremes that an amplifier could ever experience.
