Description
The LEA Professional CS704-ADSP Connect Series Smart Amplifier is a four-channel Class-D amplifier designed for professional installed audio systems that require flexible power, advanced processing, and network-based control. It delivers up to 700 watts per channel at 4Ω, 8Ω, 25V, and 70V/100V, with a rated output of 350 watts per channel at 2Ω. Its support for low-impedance and high-impedance loudspeaker systems makes it suitable for a wide range of commercial audio applications.
The CS704-ADSP features a 96kHz Analog Devices SHARC DSP processor with a 32-bit core and sample rate converters. Its processing capabilities include 2048-tap linear-phase FIR filters per channel, IIR crossover filters up to 48dB per octave, eight-band parametric EQ per channel, and up to four seconds of output delay per channel. Configurable peak-voltage and RMS-voltage limiters, input routing, and real-time load monitoring provide additional control for system tuning and protection.
With LEA Cloud connectivity, the amplifier enables remote control, monitoring, and notifications from compatible devices without requiring a VPN. Its browser-based WebUI, third-party API support, and SharkWare compatibility offer multiple ways to configure and manage installations. Four balanced analog inputs, external I/O for remote on/off and amplifier health monitoring, and a universal switch-mode power supply make the CS704-ADSP a flexible solution for demanding professional AV systems.
