The red Performer s800 Stereo Power Amplifier from SPL is an ultra-compact power amplifier. Thanks to the VOLTAiR technology, this power amplifier has absolute control over the speakers up to their load limits. In stereo operation, this bi-polar transistor power amplifier delivers up to 2 x 285W into 4 Ohms speakers. In Bridge Mode it delivers 450W into an 8 Ohms speaker. In addition, it is equipped with slave-through outputs and input trim switches.

The Performer s800 amplifier uses the VOLTAiR technology (120V rail technology) to offer a high voltage of 120V (+/-60 VDC) and large dynamic range of over 140 dB. The 120V electronics operate quasi 'idle' even at highest audio levels and impulse peaks. They never operate on the limit and therefore never get stressed. The music presents itself with serenity so that you feel pleasant when listening.

The amplifier is equipped with an 855VA toroidal transformer. The power supply is equipped with a capacitance of 40800 µF for screening and electricity storage for faithful reproduction of impulse peaks.

The Performer s800 amplifier has a protection circuit against DC voltage at the output and against overheating. At about 158°F at the heat sink, the amplifier will switch off. After the temperature has fallen below 131°F, the amplifier automatically switches on again. The temperature LED at the front indicates the overheating.

If DC is detected at the outputs, the amplifier automatically switches off. DC voltage can be an indication for a defect in the power stage. The amplifier does not automatically switch on again. It needs to be disconnected from the power (on/off). The Protect LED at the front indicates that the protection circuit is activated and the power stage has been switched off.

The amplifier is equipped with Neutrik XLR input and output connectors for balanced operation. The input signal is passively routed to the output connector to feed a second power amplifier for bi-wiring. The input can be lowered via a Trim rotary switch from 0 to -5.5 dB in 0.5 dB steps. This is useful in order to achieve an optimal stereo sweet-spot in acoustically sub-optimal rooms. In bi-wiring line-ups or in the studio with multi-speaker sets, it allows for leveling speakers with different efficiency to equal loudness.

The speaker outputs are gold plated binding post connectors. The terminals can accommodate both banana plugs, as well as a strand of up to 4mm diameter. To protect against short-circuits, the binding post is equipped with a clear plastic cap.

The Performer s800 amplifier features a 3.5mm mono jack designated as AMP CTR (amplifier control). With the appropriate cable, the amplifier can be connected to a pre-amplifier. This automatically helps in switching on the amplifier when you turn on the pre-amplifier.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Does this allow microphone to be used at same time with other sound source like aux? So is it a mini mixer+amplifier likely thing?

A: Correct: Switchable MIC PAGER and MIXING ModesSet to PAGER, the signal from AUX 1/AUX 2/CD will be attenuated BY -12dB and the signal from MIC will override to page (Auto Talkover), it is good for paging system. Set to MIXING, the signals from AUX 1/AUX 2/CD and MIC will be existed at the same time, it acts like playing at KARAOKE event.

Q: 2. Does this work for the Sony FX-9? If so, how long does the battery power the FX-9 for?

A: Yes it will work with the FX9. It should give you at least 4-5 hours of battery life.

Q: 3. Will this display display remaining time on camera?

A: Yes, this will display status info on camera.

Q: 4. Can this battery power a Sony FS5 directly while powering an Atomos Shogun Inferno from the D-Tap?

A: That should be possible with this battery. The battery is compatible with the Sony FS5 and it has a D-Tap output that can be used to power the Atomos Shogun Inferno with a D-Tap cable.

Q: 5. Can I use this with a Lanparte battery fro D800, and connect it to a monitor with 8 volt power out?

A: Yes it is designed to go on our dummy batteries.As for the monitor, if it takes that certain type of battery, you are good!

Q: 6. Is it possible to charge this battery with the charger that comes included with the Sony FX6?

A: Yes, the IDX System Technology 14.4V Li-Ion Battery can be charged in the original OEM Sony charger.

Q: 7. can these two channels be bridged?

A: to the best of my knowledge, no. Basic 2 channel amp, but it does what it is supposed to do well with low distortion and dependable output levels. I used it for wired speakers on my patio, Bose, that are not that efficient, but it drives them well and cleanly. Hope this helps.

Q: 8. Approximately long does it last powering both the FX6 and Atomos Ninja V?

A: You will be able to power the Sony FX6 and Atomos Ninja V for at least 2.4 hours with the IDX System Technology 14.4V Li-Ion Battery for Sony BP-U Mount Cameras (96Wh).

Q: 9. Can I use this cable with a Canon XA 55 Series camera?

A: No, the LanParte Red-Tip Camera DC Power Spring Cable for Battery Pinch does not support powering Canon XA series cameras. Another option that would work is a dummy battery connected to a V-Mount or Gold mount battery. Also many adapters offer DTAP ports that Anton Bauer cable could attach to.

Q: 10. I have an existing set of speakers going to my pool deck (Ch.2), and a set at the pool house (Ch.1). I'm looking to amplify the ones on the deck (Ch.2) so I have a balanced volume. Can I connect the existing speaker output (Ch.2) speaker to the input AUX. of this amplifier then run the speaker output from the amp to the pool deck and boost the volume?

A: Adjust the balance control.
