U.S. Government Uses SoundTech Power Amps!
(SoundTech | Posted 2004-02-21)
The SoundTech PS802 Power Amplifiers were purchased by Lockheed Martin & ECC International for use inside Government tanks and flight simulators. The PS802 packs a huge 800 Watts, stuffed into a small 15.8lb single rack space shell. Perfect for small places that demand Power and Performance.
The PS802, which yields 800 Watts in a scant 1 Space high, 15.8 lb. rack mount package, is a Heavyweight performer in a lightweight package. The PS802 achieves its small size and light weight by using a highly efficient hybrid switchmode power supply, which reduces the need for bulky mains transformers. Weight and size savings are especially important for portable sound applications, where smaller, lighter amplifiers yield daily savings in transportation and labor. The PowerSource SwitchMode power supply and Class-H Output circuits combine to yield a 20% improvement in energy efficiency, while retaining the punch required for today's challenging music. Complete Protection is provided, shielding speakers from unsafe conditions, including DC faults, on/off transients and under/over voltage conditions.
Full protection from AC mains faults is also an integral part of PS802 design. Vari-Speed Dual 1" Fan Cooling keeps the PS802 operating safely from idle to full power, under conditions from nominal to adverse. Versatile Inputs allow connection via balanced XLR connectors or unbalanced 1/4" phone jacks, giving reliable connection to professional and semi-pro equipment. The PS802 is covered by SoundTech's 5-year "Built-Tough" warranty, and is available with CE certification for use in Europe.

ECC International Corp. designs, manufactures and markets computer-controlled simulators used primarily for training personnel to perform maintenance and operator procedures on military weapons systems. The Company's simulators measure performance as a trainee operates the equipment, conducts equipment tests, diagnoses programmed malfunctions and takes corrective actions. All four branches of the United States Department of Defense, as well as numerous foreign governments, use ECC's equipment for operator training and maintenance training for aircraft, missiles, tanks, combat vehicles and small arms weapons. The Company's systems also have potential commercial application in areas, such as law enforcement training.
