The DS 1200x4 2-ohm amplifier module was carefully designed to meet the needs of a wide variety of car audio systems.
With 1200 watts of power distributed across 4 channels of 300 watts RMS at 2 ohms, it also offers the possibility of bridge connection, resulting in 2 channels of 600 watts RMS at 4 ohms. It can be used to amplify subwoofers, woofers, mid-bass, mid-range, mid-high frequencies, and high frequencies. In addition, it features the traditional RCA inputs, gain adjustment, and fixed crossover (HPF, LPF, and full), characteristic of Taramps products.
Due to its versatility, the DS1200 can be installed to amplify speakers in car doors and rear decks, vans, pickups, SUVs, motorcycle advertising boxes, 2-way kits, 4-way kits, coaxial, triaxial, quadraxial, 4-inch, 5-inch, 6-inch, 6x9-inch, 5x7-inch speakers, trio boxes, bob boxes, horn boxes, residential boxes, horn boxes, drivers, driver boxes, among others.
Versatility, efficiency, and quality in a single product.
Technical specifications:
• Operating class: class d.
This indicates the amplifier's construction. Class d (also called digital) due to the PWM (pulse width modulation) used in its operation, allows for a small, efficient amplifier with reduced heat generation compared to other construction classes.
• Number of channels: 4.
Number of channels for use in your project; with this specific model, you have the option of connecting with 4, 3, or 2 channels.
• Power @12.6v – 2 ohms, stereo: 4 x 300 watts RMS.
The power at 12.6v is related to the vehicle/power supply operation.
• Power @12.6v – 4 ohms, bridge: 2 x 600 watts RMS.
The power at 12.6v is related to the vehicle/power supply operation.
• Minimum stereo output impedance: 2 ohms.
Association with the result of speakers, where, for example, we can connect two 4-ohm speakers per channel to achieve this result.
• Minimum bridge output impedance: 4 ohms. Association with speaker output, where, for example, we can connect two 8-ohm speakers per channel (bridge) or just one 4-ohm speaker for this output.
• Minimum input sensitivity: 250mv.
Lowest voltage required for maximum output with the amplifier, meaning that even with low radio volume, we can achieve good results.
• Frequency response (full range): 9Hz ~ 27kHz (-3dB).
With the frequency response, it is possible to identify the application of the amplifier; if the speaker or any other type of transducer you are using is within this response, it means that we can use this product in your project.
• Fixed low-pass crossover (LPF): 90Hz.
• Low-pass filter (LPF) means low-pass filter, that is, it allows everything below this reference to be reproduced and what is above this indication will not be used. A common use of this function is to reduce the presence of vocals in subwoofers.
• Fixed high-pass crossover (HPF): 90Hz.
HPF, or high-pass filter, means high-pass filter, that is, it allows everything above this reference to be reproduced. A common use of this function is to reduce the presence of bass in door speakers, for example.
• Supply voltage: 9 to 16V.
This indicates the amplifier's operating voltage, specifying the minimum and maximum voltage for its operation. Outside of this specification, it will not turn on or will activate a protection.
• Standby current consumption: 1.8A.
This is the reference current consumption of the amplifier when turned on and without music.
• Maximum musical current consumption: @12.6VDC: 67.5A.
This is the estimated power consumption of the amplifier operating at minimum impedance while playing music at maximum volume.
• Maximum consumption in sinusoidal signal: @12.6VDC: 135A.
Reference for bench/laboratory tests under specific conditions with resistive load, fixed frequency, and stable power supply.
• Protection system: thermal and short circuit at the output.
This system exists to protect the amplifier's operation. It may be related to the output, when there are connections below the minimum impedance, a short circuit in the installation, or even speakers with problems.
This protection may also occur due to voltages outside the operating range, or even thermal protection that occurs due to conditions where the amplifier has above-normal heating.
• Dimensions: width 18.2cm x height 5.2cm x depth 28.1cm.
Extreme dimensions of the product.
• Weight: 2.1kg.
Gross weight of the amplifier.
