A dedicated controller amplifier for the Martin Audio Wavefront Precision WPM line array, the iK81 can also provide multi-channel amplification across the Martin Audio loudspeaker range.The iK81 can deliver a full 1250 watts per channel into 2, 4 or 8 ohms with all channels driven while remaining highly efficient. Its high efficiency reduces the energy drawn from the mains supply and ensures the power reserves needed to deliver superb sound under arduous live conditions.Ethernet is used for system remote control and monitoring via Martin Audio’s VU-NET software application, while a user friendly front panel interface allows full local control of all features. Dante digital audio network inputs are also provided for digital audio distribution and control.Powerful DSP is fully integrated into the iK81 to provide a multitude of features. It also provides up to 1000 FIR filter taps @ 48kHz on each output channel, which is essential to implement DISPLAY’s wide bandwidth optimisation process in the WPM line array.The iK81 employs comprehensive protection functions to maintain safe operating conditions of both the amplifier and the loudspeakers driven — including a sophisticated loudspeaker limiter suite which incorporates peak, RMS and excursion limiting, as well as multiband limiting for passive 2-way systems.Product Features\nEight channels of efficient Class D amplification\nVery high power density in 2U rack height\n10,000 Watts total power output\nHigh performance 96kHz DSP on all inputs and outputs (48kHz on outputs when implementing FIR filters)\nSwitch mode power supply\nGlobal mains operation, 85V to 240V auto-sensing\nIntuitive, user-friendly, front panel interface\nAnalogue, AES3 and Dante™ digital audio network inputs\nEthernet network for system control and monitoring via Martin Audio VU-NET™ software application\nComprehensive protection and monitoring functions\nApplications\nDedicated controller amplifier for Martin Audio WPM line array\nVersatile multi-channel amplification for Martin Audio loudspeaker systems\nProduct SpecificationsGENERAL\nTYPE:  Eight-channel Class D amplifier\nPOWER OUTPUT (*):  \n1250W into 2Ω\n1250W into 4Ω\n1250W into 8Ω\n2500W bridged per channel pair, 4Ω or 8Ω\n\n\nCV LINE OUTPUT (*):  \n625W, 25V line\n1250W, 70V line\n1250W, 100V line\n\n\nDIGITAL SIGNAL PROCESSING:  96kHz\/48kHz DSP on all inputs and outputs\nCOOLING:  Dual vari-speed fans, front-to-back airflow\nMAXIMUM AMBIENT TEMPERATURE:  40°C (104°F)\nAUDIO INPUTS\/OUTPUTS\nANALOGUE IN\/LINK (4 CHANNELS):  \n4 x female\n4 x male Neutrik™ XLR\n\n\nANALOGUE INPUT IMPEDANCE:  20kΩ balanced to ground\nMAXIMUM ANALOGUE INPUT LEVEL:  +20dBu\nAES3 IN\/LINK (2 CHANNELS):  1 x female, 1 x male Neutrik™ XLR, balanced\nDANTE™ (4 CHANNELS):  2 x shielded RJ45, primary and secondary\nAMPLIFIER OUTPUTS:  4 x Neutrik Speakon™ NL4\nAUDIO PERFORMANCE\nDYNAMIC RANGE:  \n\u0026gt;113dBA, analogue input\n\u0026gt;114dBA AES\/Dante™ input\n\n\nFREQUENCY RESPONSE:  7Hz-30kHz (‐2.5dB points, 4Ω load)\nTOTAL HARMONIC DISTORTION:  \u0026lt;0.05% typical @ 1kHz, 4Ω load\nSLEW RATE:  \u0026gt;60V per microsecond\nDAMPING FACTOR:  \u0026gt;800 at amplifier output, ref 8Ω\nCONTROL AND MONITORING NETWORK\nPROTOCOL:  Ethernet\nCONTROL APPLICATION:  Martin Audio VU-NET™\nDIGITAL SIGNAL PROCESSING\nSAMPLE RATE:  96kHz (48kHz for FIR filter implementation)\nPHYSICAL INPUTS:  \n4 x analogue\n2 x AES\n4 x Dante™ inputs routable to four DSP drive modules\n\n\nDRIVE MODULE INPUT DSP:  Input signal routing, delay, gain, HPF, Phase, MuteEQ: 2 x low shelf, 6 x PEQ\/bandpass and FIR shelving filters\n\nDRIVE MODULE OUTPUT DSP:  Source, delay, gain, Phase, Mute, crossover filters, limitersEQ: low shelf, 8 x PEQ \/ band pass and shelving filters\n\nPOWER SUPPLY\nTYPE:  High performance Series Resonant\nAC INPUT OPERATING RANGE:  85 – 240V ~ AC, 47 - 63Hz\nMAINS INRUSH CURRENT:  6A at 115V, 12A at 230V (max for \u0026lt;10ms)\nMAINS CONNECTOR:  Neutrik 32A Powercon™\nPHYSICAL\nDIMENSIONS:\n(W) 482 x (H) 2U\/88mm x (D) 441mm\n(W) 18.98in x (H) 2U\/3.46in x (D) 17.35in(incl handles and optional rear support)\n\n\n\nWEIGHT:  12.5kg (27.5lbs)\n","brand":"Martin Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58332913959286,"sku":"MAUIK81DAN","price":7887.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0361\/2681\/files\/MAUIK81DAN_Martin_Audio_IK81-DANTE_Image_1.jpg?v=1784913280","url":"https:\/\/spartanmusic.co.uk\/products\/ikon-ik81-dante-8-channel-class-d-amplifier-8x1250w-4ohm-2u","provider":"Spartan Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
