ments designed to keep working in the most arduous conditions.
At
RAM Audio
, we have an enviable reputation in the industry, and continue to stay at the forefront of
audio design by offering our many customers all those concepts combined with the following major
advantage: a sensible price level for our pedigree products. This is made possible by our constant
development of state-of-the-art designs, together with meticulous component selection and rigorous
supervision of assembly quality.
The
S Series
of
RAM Audio
amplifiers distils all these features to fulfill all your needs, whether you’re
starting a P.A. amplifier project from scratch, or you need to upgrade your present sound reinforcement
equipment.
In the
S Series
amps, you'll find five 2-channel models and five 4-channel models, all offering plenti-
ful power levels at low distortion in the range of 1.5 to 6 kilowatts, yet weighing in around 8 kilos and 30
cm deep.
Read on to find out why an
S Series RAM Audio
power amplifier should be your next buy, to give you
the peace of mind that only the best of keenly-priced, reliable and future-proof equipment can provide.
Welcome to the
S Series
.
EtheRAM is a control system which permits, with just a computer, the control and monitoring
of an installed group of Power Amps, connected to a standard EtherNet LAN (local area network).
The system can be used to switch-on remotely the amplifiers as well as to control their output
levels, it can also be used as a monitoring system for all the Amps parameters. Finally, it can be
used as a diagnosis tool to visualize the status of any acoustic system connected to the Amps.
EtheRAM Control System

· Adjustable threshold for detecting open and short
· Real time average minimun impedance (Ohms)
S Series Input Module Options
Standard Signal Inputs Module: The S Series amps are equipped
as standard with twin Neutrik
®
XLR, doubled by two other XLR
connectors for linking purposes. In the 4 Channel models an XLR
input per channel is provided with the signal linking facility.
DSP Module: Digital Signal Processor fully programmable through an
USB port. These are the Processor's main characteristics:
• Four Inputs/Four Outputs or Two In/Two Out free route configurable.
• 24 bits/192 kHz 256x Oversampling Converters.
• Output Delay: 0 to 7.1 meters (20.69ms) per channel.
• Crossovers: Up to 48dB/oct Butterworth, Linkwitz-Riley and Bessel.
• EQ: 9 filters per channel (Parametric, Shelving, LP, HP, BP, SB).
• Gain, Mute and Phase inversion per channel.
• RMS Power and Peak Voltage output limiter per channel.
• Real Time operation from USB or front pannel configuration.
Analog Processor Module: permits a very easy, user-friendly signal
processing to enable the amp to set up a bi-amp system without any
other outboard device. These are the Processor's main characteristics:
• 2-way stereo crossover (Bi-amp mono or Bridged sub output modes)
• 24dB/oct Linkwitz-Riley configurable crossover (90, 100 o 120Hz)
• Adjustable attenuation in the High-pass outputs (-3, -6 or -9dB)
• Adjustable Limiter, relative to Max. Output (-3, -6 or -9dB)
EtheRAM Control Module: permits the control and monitoring of an
installed group of Power Amps, connected to a standard EtherNet LAN
using the onboard Datacom port via a Neutrik
®
RJ-45 connector. Also,
it has a general purpose input and output (GPIO) connector to interfa-
ce with third party controllers like an alarm system. It permits to control
the turn on and to report the operating status.
Ethernet Audio Transport: digital audio network interface
module which permits the reception of audio signal through an
Ethernet network. The network`s own external control system
permits signal routing to any of the amp's channels. Two diffe-
rent versions for CobraNet
TM
or EtherSound
TM
protocols.
AES/EBU Digital Input: Input for digital audio signal for
AES/EBU (AES3) standard via Neutrik
®
XLR, (Extra Link XLR
connector fitted). Its Sample Rate Converter permits 16 or 24
bits resolution operation at 32 to 48 KHz Sample Rate.
