Following the unqualified success of the 8-channel Ottocanali series, launched at
Integrated Systems Europe two years earlier, Powersoft has again chosen ISE as
the forum to launch its new Quattrocanali Series.

As in previous years they share booth 7-K180, with their Dutch distributor, Ampco
Flashlight Sales.

Powersoft’s new four-channel amplifier platform includes three models:

• Quattrocanali 4804: 1200 W per channel @ 8ohm; 1500 W per channel @ 2
ohm; 3000 W bridged @ 4 ohms;

• Quattrocanali 2404: 600 W per channel @ 8ohm; 800 W per channel @ 2 ohm;
1200 W bridged @ 4 ohms;

• Quattrocanali 1204: 300 W per channel @ 8 ohm; 500 W per channel @ 2
ohm; 1000 W bridged @ 4 ohms.

This completes the Powersoft Installation Series that includes Duecanali (2-channel)
and Ottocanali (8-channel) series.

This new 1RU four-channel amplifier platform packs a serious punch, delivering
crisp sound and sustained output volume, making it ideal for applications such as
bars, restaurants, retail outlets and fitness centres. It features Powersoft’s
trademark switch-mode power supply with power factor correction, smart rail
management and bridgeable switch mode fixed frequency Class D output circuit
topology.

If the Ottocanali Series is purpose-designed for bigger installations with mission
critical requirements, this new series addresses the requirements from small and
medium applications where the channel count is limited but the need for a flexible
product to work with Hi-Z and Lo-Z systems is a must,’ says Marc Kocks, Business
Development Manager for Fixed Install. “In particular, the new Quattrocanali 1204,
featuring 300W per channel, can open up a new market for Powersoft that
historically was recognized among the industry leaders for higher power
applications. We believe that in many small installations, like leisure venues and
retail spaces, where sonic quality and simplicity of use are important, this product
will quickly become a best seller — because for the first time users have a
competitive choice in Powersoft product’s catalogue,’ summarises Sales Director,
Luca Giorgi.

Meanwhile, Powersoft continues to reduce the impact on the environment via its
patented switching mode power supply, which enables the Quattrocanali to be fitted
inside a 1RU enclosure. This means that more amplifiers may be carried within a
single shipment, reducing CO2 emissions generated by moving large volumes
across the world. In fact, Quattrocanali’s design implements clever features so that
it may be installed in places that were once deemed unpractical and unsafe, while
reducing the need for external outboard. In addition, the lowest thermal dissipation
ratings in the industry make the use of external cooling superfluous.

Quattrocanali is available in both DSP and non-DSP versions, both fully remote
controllable via standard GPI/O connections on the back panel, Powersoft’s
proprietary Armonia software, dedicated web app, or third party application.

The new series is already ready for shipping

Powersoft is also using ISE 2017 to present a vital addition to the Duecanali Series.
Duecanali 1602 is a two-channel model and in terms of on-board technology is
similar to the Quattrocanali — although it differs from the current Duecanali Series,
which is based on K Series.
