The LA24a is a compact, light-weight power amplifier (2 rack units high, 10 kg) designed for high performance touring and fixed nstallation. Capable of delivering over 1700 watts per channel into 2 ohms, the LA24a can also be configured to match the power delivered to a wide range of impedance loads using Minimum Load Select (MLS) switches. MLS flexibility allows the LA24a to be customized to suit a variety of L-ACOUSTICS loudspeaker models and applications. The switch-mode power supply (SMPS) employed in the LA24a is a modern solution to the weight and size problem. With SMPS technology, it is possible to use ferrite transformers instead of the heavy iron transformers and large electrolytic capacitors that are typical of conventional power amplifiers. Combined with the patented Intercooler® system, this results in a weight reduction of up to 60% when compared with conventional amplifiers of similar power ratings.
