Lab Gruppen FP7000

The Lab Gruppen FP7000 is a powerful and highly efficient professional power amplifier designed for demanding live sound reinforcement applications. As part of Lab Gruppen’s FP+ series, this amplifier is engineered to provide exceptional power output, superior sound quality, and energy efficiency, making it a popular choice for large-scale events, concert tours, and installations in theaters or arenas. Known for its reliability and robust construction, the FP7000 is often used in conjunction with high-performance PA systems, delivering the power necessary to drive large speaker arrays while maintaining pristine audio fidelity.

With a two-channel design, the FP7000 offers an impressive power output of 3500 watts per channel at 2 ohms, 3000 watts per channel at 4 ohms, and 1500 watts per channel at 8 ohms. This makes it suitable for driving a wide range of speaker configurations, from high-output subwoofers to full-range line arrays. The amplifier’s Class TD (Tracking Class D) topology ensures high efficiency and low heat generation, combining the benefits of Class D efficiency with the sound quality of traditional Class AB designs. This innovative technology helps minimize power loss, reduce heat dissipation, and allow for more compact and lightweight designs, making the FP7000 ideal for touring applications where space and weight are often limited.

The FP7000 also features Lab Gruppen‘s proprietary Voltage Peak Limiter (VPL) and Adaptive Limiting System (ALS) technologies, which help protect both the amplifier and the connected speakers from damage due to overload or overheating. The VPL allows for customizable peak voltage settings to match the amplifier’s output to the specific needs of the speakers, ensuring optimal performance without risking speaker damage. Meanwhile, the ALS monitors the amplifier’s operating temperature and adjusts the output as necessary to prevent thermal shutdowns, providing an extra layer of protection during prolonged periods of high output.

In terms of connectivity, the Lab Gruppen FP7000 is designed for flexibility and ease of use. It features both XLR and Speakon connectors for input and output, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of audio equipment. The front panel includes clear LED indicators for signal presence, limiting, and protection status, giving engineers real-time feedback on the amplifier’s performance. Additionally, the FP7000 is equipped with a switchable gain structure, allowing users to select the appropriate gain setting for their specific setup, further enhancing its versatility across different sound systems and environments.
