Direct drive load capability.
The direct drive load capability is a measure for the total wattage that can be driven in 70 V/100 V operation mode. A load capability value of 1250 watts means that this amplifier can drive e.g. 50 loudspeakers at a voltage tab of 25 watts. The dB value in parentheses indicates the delta to maximum modulation. In cases where the maximum modulation is not required you can use the smaller amplifier model.

1This operation mode is not recommended due to the efficiency reasons. Please use the next smaller amplifier for this mode.

2Direct drive mode not available for this configuration.

** requires firmware 2.0.
