Behringer KM1700 Overview

Ideal for small clubs, mobile PA systems, and houses of worship, the KM1700 from Behringer is a stereo power amplifier that provides up to 800W per channel into four ohms and 1700W into eight ohms in mono bridge mode. With comprehensive protections and ATR tech for enhanced punch and clarity, this amp offers incredible value.

With switchable limiters built into both channels, you never have to worry about sudden peaks damaging your gear or your audience's ears. The linear, toroidal power supply offers clean, reliable amplification power. I/O options are varied, including balanced XLR and unbalanced 1/4" TRS input as well as speakON and binding post speaker outputs. And with a durable all-steel chassis and built-in rack support, this 2 RU power amp fits perfectly into any standard equipment rack.

Accelerated Transient Response Technology
It takes huge pulses of energy (current and voltage) to propel a woofer cone fast enough to match a bass beat. That’s called ATR or Accelerated Transient Response and it’s the holy grail of amp designers.

By carefully selecting transistors with extremely high slew rates and optimizing other proprietary parts of their circuitry, Behringer's amps react instantly to even the most demanding bass impulses. If the woofers in your PA system can keep up, your audience will hear a tighter, crisper, more natural sound.

Remarkable Ease of Use
The ultrasimple front-panel controls of the KM1700 provide all of your amp's vital signs at a glance. After flipping the Main switch, the Power LED will light when the amp is ready for action.

Each of the 2 channels feature dedicated Gain controls and Signal LEDs that light up when a signal is present at the input as well as Clip LEDs to indicate when input adjustments are required.

Useful Control Features
The rear panel of every KM1700 sports an array of options to help you get the most out of your amp. The built-in Clip Limiter automatically senses when the amplifier is being driven into clipping and momentarily reduces the input level to avoid distortion. This all happens in mere microseconds, making it the ideal way to ensure perfect sound all the time.
Rail Tracking for Reliability
Instead of operating relatively continuously like most power amps, the KM1700 features rail tracking for effectively modulating the power supply rails with only the peaks of the input signal. This technology has revolutionized pro audio amp designs with its outstanding performance and efficiency.
