Rated 4.9 (120 reviews)
The Ecler VIDA16Q is a four-channel Class D amplifier with a total of 1600W that can be shared unevenly between outputs, for example 4x 400W or most of the power on one channel. Each output is set to 2, 4 or 8 ohms or to a 70V or 100V line, and the unit adds Dante/AES67, a DSP matrix, a microSD player and scheduling, all set from a web browser. It is used as a self-contained zone amplifier in bars, restaurants, hotels, retail, gyms, offices and schools.

Power sharing1600W is the total for the unit. With all four channels driven equally each output gives 400W; a single channel can take up to 1600W when the others are lightly loaded.
Features
Four amplified outputs sharing 1600W through Ecler VersaPower, so power can be split unevenly between channels
Each output set independently to 2, 4 or 8 ohms, 70V or 100V
4 balanced analogue inputs and 4 Dante/AES67 network inputs
2 balanced auxiliary line outputs and 4 Dante/AES67 network outputs
Built-in microSD audio player and signal generator
Internal matrix with input and output DSP: noise gate, high-pass filter, frequency shifter, compressor, delay, parametric and graphic EQ, limiters
Priority and backup signal handling, presets, scheduled calendar events
4 GPI (0 to 10V), 4 GPO relay contacts and external mute
Configured from the embedded web application; end-user control from iOS, Android and web apps
Per-channel auto standby and low-consumption sleep mode; works with EclerCLOUD remote monitoring
