BITTNER AUDIO BASIC 1200-2x600W-4Ω POWER AMPLIFIER

BASIC Series - Intelligent Power

BASIC - that's meeting the tightest budgets and professional requirements
in reliability, flexibility and sound. Alone or in combination with the other
products of the Bittner portfolio.
The consequent realisation of the Bittner quality standards indicates once
more our understanding of the contracting business. It underlines our philosophy
that cost consciousness has nothing to do with giving up standards. Compromise
is a word unknown to Bittner Audio!
The incorporation of detent potentiometers, clip limiter, protection circuits for
any imaginable situation, as well as a first-class production process using only
highest-quality components made the BASIC series the choice of most contractors.

Certainly more than basic!

A full model revision takes Yamaha's high-end PC-N power amplifiers to the next level - the PC-1N
Series. The new PC-1N Series amplifiers feature an extraordinarily solid low end, rich midrange,
and superbly defined highs. They also deliver fast response and exceptional stability even in the face
of serious power supply limitations. Refinements throughout this expanded five-model lineup make
these amplifiers the new benchmarks for quality, reliability, and versatility in professional applications.
Frequency Response: 10 Hz – 40 KHz. Output Power: 2 x 400 Watt / 8Ω RMS, 2 x 700 Watt / 4Ω RMS,
1400 Watt / 8Ω bridge RMS. Weight: 13 Kg.

• Output power: 750W @ 4 Ohms stereo, 500W @ 8 Ohms stereo
• High-current toroidal transformers for greater power and low noise
• Independent user-defeatable peak limiters reduce distortion
• Selectable High-Pass filter at 30Hz or 50Hz
• XLR and 1/4\' TRS input jacks
• Binding post and Speakon?-type outputs
• Front mounted gain controls for easy access
• Signal and Peak LED indicators to monitor performance
• Short circuit, thermal, subsonic, RF protection, output DC offset
• Power on/off muting

This professional stereo power amplifier, working in class-H mode, provides 2x800W, at an efficiency of around 85%.

A passive transformer based power supply and hand selected components makes this power rating possible with exceptional audio quality and absolute reliability, even in the 2 Ohm mode. The output stage is fully protected against over-temperature, short circuit, RFI and equipped with soft start circuit and temperature-controlled fan cooling.  The integral soft clip limiter protects against damage to the connected loudspeakers.  The activity of a protective circuit, signal and limiter is shown for each channel by LEDʼs.
