Lab Gruppen PD3000 3,000W 2-Channel Power Amplifier
Description
The Lab Gruppen PD3000 3,000W 2-channel power amp packs potent sound reinforcement with exceptional reliability. Drawing on decades of experience crafting amplifiers for world-class touring rigs, it combines brute strength and thoughtful engineering. Dual channels each pump out 1,500W, while the efficient Class-D design generates abundant clean power. Use the PD3000 to drive full-range or bi-amped systems with ample headroom and authoritative punch. It's engineered to excel in demanding live sound settings.
Go Loud and Clear With 3,000W of Class-D Power
Boasting a total output of 3,000W, the PD3000 delivers the robust continuous power needed for mid-sized gigs, houses of worship and installed A/V systems. It uses Lab Gruppen's proprietary Class-D amplifier topology to generate this bountiful power with cool-running efficiency. The superb fidelity rivals traditional AB designs, yet without the heat and current draw. Connect up to an 8-ohm stereo load or bridge for a 1,500W mono system. Either way, expect articulate sound with tight bass and smooth highs.
Dual Channels Provide Flexibility for Any Setup
The PD3000 gives you two independent channels, each with XLR and 1/4" TRS inputs. Send discrete mixes to left and right full-range loudspeakers in stereo mode or drive separate low and high sections in a bi-amped configuration. On-board crossovers make it easy to optimize response. Individual gain knobs balance the channels, while intuitive rear panel switches route and configure the outputs. Link multiple PD3000 amps to scale up power as your gigs grow. However you utilize its capabilities, the dual-channel PD3000 promotes simplicity.
Comprehensive Protection Circuits for Worry-Free Operation
You can plug in and crank up the PD3000 with confidence thanks to exhaustive protection systems. Thermal limiting maintains safe temperatures during marathon festivals and long services. Load fault detection safeguards your speakers. Startup/shutdown muting avoids thumps. LED meters clearly indicate limiter and fault status. Robust components stand up to repeated transport in mobile racks and road cases. Designed to tour and built to last, the PD3000 keeps performing where other amps fail.
Thoughtfully Engineered for Real-World Use
Attention to detail makes the PD3000 a pleasure to use on real-world gigs. The front panel sports both gain knobs and a power switch for quick access. Color-coded LED ladders give you at-a-glance metering, even on dark stages. Both channels have balanced XLR and 1/4" TRS inputs with ample headroom. Rear panel speakON outputs connect securely to your speakers. With the PD3000, Lab Gruppen distills decades of amplifier wisdom into an affordable, road-tough package ready for action.
