Product Overview

Ultra small in size and big on features, this small footprint high fidelity amplifier is an audio powerhouse.
Either as a standalone studio quality stereo amplifier, or as a part of a more complex multi channel system, 
the Q

1K

 is the system designer’s ideal solution.

One Q

1K

 amplifier consists of two channels of 500W, including the option for a 1000W bridge mode. Audio 

quality is studio class, which places the Q

1K

 comfortably both at home, on the stage, or in the studio. As a 

reference amplifier the Q

1K

 is clean and transparent and its ultra-compact and fashionable appearance is 

a space saver anywhere it is installed. In bridge mode the amplifier can also operate as a 70V line, 1000W 
power amplifier. Ideal for distributed systems where high quality and stable high power is required.
