The QSC PL-236A is a lightweight, rackmount, 2-channel power amplifier with a custom security cover and built-in adjustable signal processing, built exclusively for use in touring and live sound applications. The unit outputs 725 Watts at 8 Ohms per channel in stereo mode, and is outfitted with a solid complement of controls and indicators, with detented rotary gain control knobs, LF filter switches, and clip LED's. Also featured is an HD15 Dataport, which enables computer-networked remote amplifier management and signal processing, using QSCcontrol software.
The PL-236A is equipped with a varispeed fan cooling system with rear to front airflow, and the energy-efficient PowerWave technology for the switching power supply. The PowerWave design sends current to the amp's power circuitry via a very low impedance circuit, charging the supply rails a staggering 230,000 times a second. The result is a consistently clean signal and predictable power distribution, with lowered thermal buildup and improved signal reproduction
The PL-236A incorporates the design, cost-effective operation, and performance features that QSC is able to implement after three decades of experience building amplifiers serving all professional sound markets.
