(2) Camco Vortex 6 Amplifiers
Description:
Lightweight, microprocessor controlled, Switch mode PSU, balanced XLR input, Speakon output. Optional WinCAI (for Windows) Amplifier Remote Control System available.
With the Vortex Series CAMCO now introduces a new generation of power amplifiers setting new standards in terms of technical and mechanical design and construction. Though the superior combination of new time-tested technologies CAMCO engineers have succeeded in bringing a product to market that truly deserves the title "New Generation"
Technology The idea behind the Vortex Series was to built a new power amp that uses a switched-mode power supply, ensures optimum ventilation and can be produced in compliance with state-of-the art technical standards. Yet output power had to be at least as high as that produced by CAMCO´s "classic" power amps, while the dimensions and weight had to be reduced. With the Vortex Series this idea has become reality: Vortex is a high power amplifier featuring exceptionally high efficiency, enormous power (6.000 watts mono into 4 ohms) a mere 2 units in height and the use of micro-controllers to digitally control and monitor all functions and thus ensure first-class audio quality. For the Vortex Series CAMCO engineers have developed a variety of innovative features: power transistor control with emergency shutdown in case of extreme malfunctions (prevents the amp from being destroyed), reliable overvoltage protection up to 400V, thermal protective circuitry for the transistors, hum free operation in case of extreme undervoltage (instead of sound-deteriorating limiters).
The amplifiers from the Vortex Series are particularly fast owning to their current-coupled amplifier stages. The 3 -stage-switched-mode power supply provides each amplifier channel with the supply voltage it actually needs, while the volume level is controlled by a 12-bit-digital-analog DCA converter (Digitally Controlled Attenuator). The cooling and ventilation system is a completely new design that ensures optimum air flow. CAMCO research has allowed us to design heat sinks with optimized heat dissipation surfaces and an integrated airflow channel. The direct and straightforward link between air intake and exit contributes considerably to the thermal stability of this power amplifier.
