Apex CloudPower CP716 Amplifier with DSP - 16x 700W @ 2 Ohms or 70v / 100v Line

The Apex CloudPower CP716 Amplifier with DSP is a 16 channel, Class D amplifier, designed for immersive spaces and installations involving numerous separate zones.
CloudPower CP716D delivers 16 x 700W and can drive both low impedance and 70/100v speakers. The amplifier has sixteen networked audio input channels and four analogue inputs that can be configured as fallback signals. An internal streaming source contributes a further two channels from a device running Spotify or AirPlay. A 96kHz 16 x 16 Dante audio networking module is fitted as standard and multiple CP716D amplifiers can be networked to create systems of 64 x 64 channels and beyond.
CP716D can be remotely or locally configured and managed from any device* through the browser-based IntelliCloud WebUI. IntelliCloud provides control over the amplifier’s onboard signal processing tools, including an input matrix, signal generators for setup, gain, PEQs, HP/LP filters, crossovers, limiters, and speaker preset management. The amplifier is built on APEX’s proprietary GlidePath direct drive architecture, which fully integrates DSP and amplifier circuits, employing DC coupling throughout the signal path to dramatically reduce time offsets and distortion.
CloudPower’s ultra-precise reproduction of high transients manages speaker cone excursion, minimizing distortion and prolonging speaker life by cutting mechanical wear.
