Alpha Control 100

4 x 3000W Intelligent Class D DSP Amplifier

Product at a Glance

The Alpha Control 100 is a high-efficiency 4 x 3000W DSP amplifier designed to serve as the core of advanced audio systems that require integrated control, precise tuning, and rugged power delivery. Equipped with onboard intelligent DSP, including IIR/FIR filtering, delay, EQ, and peak/programmable limiting, the amplifier provides system engineers with complete tonal and timing alignment tools, accessible directly from the front panel or via networked remote access.

Built with Class D topology, the amplifier features a 96kHz ADC/DAC engine and a wide dynamic range of 114 dB, ensuring pristine signal fidelity from source to output. It offers versatile connectivity options, including Dante, AES, XLR, and USB-B, and is supported by advanced metering and LED status indicators for both signal and system health. With a rugged 3U rackmount chassis, 4 analog + 4 Dante inputs, and independent control navigation per channel, the Alpha Control 1000 is ideal for high-demand applications in stadiums, touring racks, and fixed installations, where consistency and remote configurability are crucial.

CRAFTSMANSHIP

Painstakingly Perfect Production

Over the years, craftsmanship has been closely linked with small scale individualistic production. Back in 1972, we started the same way. As we grew in scale & size, it was difficult to build each speaker individually, but quality control was of utmost importance as so switching to a general assembly line was simply not an option. So we wrote up a code, one quite like enigma, to ensure quality control. We selected the right partners, got the right tools, and in cases where those weren't available, we invented them. We grew slower than most as our aim was to last longer than most.
