The DS18 FRP-3.5K is a Class D full-range monoblock amplifier rated at 3500 watts RMS at 1 ohm, with 4000 watts max burst power. It covers 10Hz to 20KHz, so it can drive subwoofers, mids, horns, compression drivers or active systems. Its compact micro digital design suits tight installations and custom builds.
It has variable crossover filters, a bass boost, and metal click-step knobs for tuning. LED indicators show power, protect and clip status. Two cooling fans, along with thermal, overload, short circuit, voltage and clipping protection, help it hold up under heavy load.
Construction includes a four-layer PCB, surface mount components and Tiffany-style RCA terminals. The board was tested with Audio Precision verification equipment.
