QSC announced at InfoComm 2010 the addition of the CMX Series of power amplifiers to the QSC line up. 

The new CMX Series amp line offers an economical and rugged power amplifier solution designed to meet the needs of system integrators.

It is based upon the performance found in the RMX Series of power amplifiers.

“The CMX Series provides unmatched performance, the right power for the job, and an affordable price point,” said Shawn Watts, Director of Installed Solutions at QSC.

“Because CMX Amps are built with QSC’s proven and reliable power plant, integrators need not worry about return warranty calls than can hurt profitability.”

The amplifiers are designed to deliver accurate sound performance and feature high-current toroidal transformers and filtering to ensure generous energy reserves allowing the amplifiers to effortlessly handle high-level transients, even when driving abusive 2-ohm speaker loads.

The CMX Series includes four models the CMX 300V, CMX 500V and CMX 800V housed in a 2RU chassis design and the CMX2000V housed in a 3RU chassis design with power ranges from 185 watts to 2500 watts per channel. 

All models feature constant voltage output for distributed audio systems with the CMX300V and CMX500V offering it in mono-mode only, while the CMX800V and CMX2000V featuring constant voltage output in either mono or stereo-mode. 

The output sections feature rugged class AB and class H architecture (depending on power level) and class H output sections on the CMX800V and CMX2000V to reduce AC current. 

The CMX Amplifiers also feature actively balanced input choices including barrier strip, XLR, and ¼” TRS connections as well as, rugged NL4 Speakon and detachable euro-style output connectors for maximum flexibility during an install. 1dB recessed de-tented gain controls offer fast and accurate output level settings.

Recessed rear dip switches offer easy selection between stereo, parallel, or bridged mode operation, and the ability to enable or disable low frequency filter protection. An integrated security plate is also provided to ensure tamper resistant installations.
