AudioControl A1500.1 - Altitude Series 1500W Max Power, Monoblock Car Amplifier, Class-D

Elevate your audio experience with AudioControl's Altitude Amplifier Series, featuring a sleek, minimalist design with an anodized matte grey aluminum chassis for superior thermal management. These amplifiers deliver exceptional power and sound quality, excelling in performance. Equipped with Valet Mode to limit volume for system protection, they’re also compatible with start-stop systems and electric vehicles. Spike Mode unleashes more power by allowing three 4Ω subwoofers to connect at 1.33Ω, while ParaBASS controls enable precise bass tuning. Pair with AudioControl’s PNW speakers and Space or Spike subwoofers for a truly immersive sound.

The power supply utilizes advanced pulse width modulator integrated circuits for enhanced performance and efficiency. It features HEXFET® Power MOSFETs from International Rectifier, engineered with advanced processing to deliver low on-resistance and fast, reliable switching. A premium toroidal transformer ensures optimal electrical efficiency with minimal signal distortion, while low ESR capacitors reduce power loss and internal heat. Precision metal potentiometers provide accurate tuning and durability. The inclusion of 500V Class X2 capacitors offers self-healing properties for high-frequency protection, safeguarding against AC surges and MOSFET failure. High-efficiency Ferrite Core Inductor filters minimize eddy current losses, while a class D driver IC with PWM modulation and HEXFET MOSFETs ensures powerful and efficient output.
