Warhorse
Design
Features
1. Patent Pending Signal-Modulated Power Supply
The WX amplifier’s patent pending signal
modulated power supply combined with its custom planar transformers achieves efficiency ratings yet
to be matched in mobile audio, operating at 90% efficiency at a 2 ohm load and 93% efficiency at a 4
ohm load at full power.
2. Planar Transformer Design
The WX amplifier’s four (4) planar transformers are excellent for high
power applications and are custom designed to handle 5,000 watts each, leaving more than enough
power headroom to operate reliably and consistently at full RMS with 20,000 watts of total capability.
3. Texas Instruments DSP
The Warhorse uses the latest Texas Instruments industrial grade DSP to
handle the amplifier’s pulse-width modulation, manage signal processing, and control the amplifier’s
protection circuitry.
4. Insulated Metal Substrate Cooling
The Warhorse design uses insulated aluminum material for
optimum heat transfer between power devices and the heatsink. Lower operating temperatures improve
performance and durability while allowing for a smaller overall footprint.
5. Heavy Duty Industrial Bus Bars
The Warhorse has been outfitted with solid copper industrial grade
bus bars. With 70 square millimeters of cross sectional area, the WX amplifier’s heavy duty bus bars are
specifically engineered to maximize the current carrying capability within the amplifier.
6. Super Thick, 4 Ounce Double Sided PCB
When you are livin’ this loud, you have to have a strong
foundation. The circuit board used in the Warhorse is 50% thicker t
han
the industry standard and uses
the heaviest available 4 ounce thick copper traces and plated-through holes. This assures the circuit
board can transfer the current needed for an amplifier of this magnitude.
7. Oversized Gold Plated Power Connectors
The Warhorse amplifier’s gold plated power connectors
were custom designed with multiple power terminals to maximize current carrying capability to the
amplifier’s signal-modulated power supply.
8. Industrial Grade Anderson
TM
Speaker Connectors
The 50 ampere Anderson
TM
connectors
packaged with the Warhorse amplifier allow minimal contact resistance at high current. The housing of
the connectors was designed to prevent polarity mismatches when connecting speakers and also
protects fingers or probes from touching the metal contacts to provide additional safety from the high
voltage signals coming from the voice coil (speaker) outputs.
9. Dual Thermostatically-Controlled Push-Pull Cooling Fans
Twin push-pull fans are mounted on the
side of the amplifier to improve airflow and provide additional cooling for the amplifier.
