Beyond fP: A new generation of
power
To achieve the extreme power-to-size
ratio in the FP+ Series, Lab.gruppen
engineers refined and upgraded two
proprietary technologies: the regulated
switch-mode power supply (R.SMPS™)
and the patented Class TD output stage.
Both are incorporated in all four
FP+ Series amplifiers. Working
together, this new generation of
proprietary circuits produces more
power from a smaller package while
at the same time maintaining
Lab.gruppen’s peerless reputation for
sonic excellence. The highs stay crisp
and transparent. The mids are warm
and natural. And the tight low end
delivers visceral impact.

2x2 + 2x4 = Maximum flexibility
A bridgeable two-channel amplifier
makes perfect sense when you need
maximum power reserves from one
chassis - as when powering massive
subwoofers, for example.
The FP+ Series meets this need with
the FP 7000 and the awe-inspiring
FP 13000. However, when powering
multiple low-, mid- or high-frequency
drivers (in line arrays or multiple stage
monitors for example), four-channel
amplifiers make more sense. You have
more discrete channels for increased
flexibility, yet both space and weight
are drastically reduced.
The FP+ Series meets this need with
two ultrahigh-power four-channel
models: FP 10000Q and FP 6000Q.
The FP 10000Q is designed to meet
the demanding requirements of mid-
to large-sized sound reinforcement
systems - including modern line array
designs - with ample undistorted
power and generous headroom
to create a remarkable listening
experience. With the FP 10000Q
you can run boxes in parallel down
to 2 ohms with abundant headroom
reserves.
A regional sound company, for example,
can standardize on only one amplifier
model and, by utilizing the appropriate
VPL settings, tailor the outputs to
match an entire complex rig with ease.
VPL greatly simplifies the tasks of
rack loading, wiring, and backup amp
management.
From the top, a stronger bottom
line
Another benefit is your savings on
initial investment. Although some
internal components of the FP+ Series
are more costly than those in the
prior fP Series, the advanced design
and efficient manufacturing have
dramatically reduced the relative cost
per watt of output. As a result, with
FP+ Series you not only get more
power per pound or kilogram,
you also get more power
per pound, dollar,
euro or yen.
The same applies to the FP 6000Q.
By stocking your racks with higher-
power, two- and four-channel
FP+ Series amplifiers, your total
amplifier count often can be cut in
half (with headroom to spare) when
compared to equivalent configurations
with other amplifiers. A few small
racks with a total amplifier weight of
less than 100 kg can supply ample
power for one side of an arena-sized
system.
The same racks also can be easily
used for bi-amp monitor systems.
When you factor in the size and
weight reductions for a total system,
the savings in labor and truck space
make a substantial difference in your
costs.
The Lab.gruppen VPL advantage
With Lab.gruppen’s proprietary VPL
(Voltage Peak Limiter) feature, individual
FP+ channel outputs can be configured
optimally to provide appropriate power
ratings for specific speaker cabinets
within a sound system.
In the Lab.gruppen tradition, FP+ Series
amplifiers are made to withstand the rigors of
the road. Night after night. Year after year. Built
with meticulous Swedish craftsmanship, and
armed with the industry’s most advanced suite
of protection features, FP+ Series amplifiers
are backed by a six-year, no-hassle warranty.
Touring brings many surprises. FP+
performance will not be among them.
