The Ottocanali 8K4: extremely flexible and reliable. It offers a wide range of system control and monitoring functions as well as sound shaping options, a total of up to 8,000 W output power over 8 channels for lo-Z or distributed line systems all neatly packed into a double rack unit. As ‘stand-alone’ unit the Ottocanali 8K4 fits any venue. Excellent sound quality and ample output power stem from Powersoft’s unique approach to Class D amplification, making the Ottocanali 8K4 the ideal main system in any venue where performance is priority.

Powersoft’s legendary efficiency saves valuable energy, keeping both operational cost and ‘carbon footprint’ at a minimum: the Ottocanali 8K4 shines with outstandingly low power consumption and heat dissipation; this dramatically reduces costs from the AC mains supply and air conditioning/cooling systems – not to mention the benefits to the environment for a greener planet.

Features
