Rear Panels With
All The Right Choices
Flexible Input Connectors
Both Euroblock and parallel male / female
XLR input connectors let you choose the best
way to simplify your analog signal wiring.
A DataPort HD15 connector is your inter-
face to QSControl.net™ for remote control,
monitoring and audio signal routing via an
Ethernet network. For the first time, analog
DataPort audio signals are directly paral-
leled with the XLR inputs to give you even
more signal-patching choices.
Choose Your Line Level
Three Position Sensitivity Switch with
color coded LEDs: 26 dB (Orange), 32 dB
(Green), or 1.2 V (Yellow). The switch set-
ting is visible on QSControl.net.
Versatile Input Routing
Stereo / Bridge / Parallel Input Routing
Switch with front and rear panel LEDs plus
QSControl.net display.
Optional Clip Limiting
Clip Limiter On/Off for each channel with
Yellow LEDs. Designed as a backstop, this
limiter converts hard clipping to a softer
form of peak clamping. Normal program
dynamics are unaltered.
Selectable High Pass Filters
Engage 33 Hz or 50 Hz high pass infrasonic
filters to protect woofers and preserve
headroom – or bypass them.
A Choice of Output Connectors
The PowerLight 3 Series gives you a choice
of output wiring as well: both Neutrik
Speakon
®
and “Touch Proof” binding posts
are included on all three amplifiers. The
channel 1 Speakon carries both output
channels for direct connection to bi-ampli-
fied loudspeakers.
Choose Your Operating Voltage
PowerLight supplies are factory optimized
for 120 VAC or 240 VAC operation. The
PL380 amplifier’s 120 VAC cord is designed
for continuous full power operation, with
12/3 wiring and a 30 A Twist-Loc connec-
tor that can handle 25 A continuous. That’s
almost twice the long-term power capacity
of some other amplifiers, and you’ll need to
configure your AC distribution accordingly if
you plan on using all of it.
Road-Rugged Construction
and Comprehensive
Internal Protection
The PowerLight 3 Series incorporates all
the lessons we’ve learned on thousands of
shows around the world to make sure that
your amplifier racks will be as reliable as
you are.
Rugged Construction
QSC design and construction have been
tested and refined for decades. A single
large circuit board carries all core power
circuitry and the solid aluminum heat sinks
with ducted fan flow.
Breakaway boards for inputs, displays, line
filters etc. are connected by vibration-resis-
tant, flexible ribbon cables and wiring.
Featuring a flexible architecture that provides users the choice of
comprehensive, networked remote control, monitoring and DSP or
the cost saving of a simple, straightforward analog input configuration.
