QSC GX3 300 Watt 8-Ohm Power Amplifier

GX Series amplifiers are ideal for professional entertainers who require maximum performance and portability on a limited budget. GX amplifiers deliver just the right amount of power to the most popular speakers used by entertainers. Power levels matched to the most popular speakers. Inputs: XLR, 1/4" TRS and phono. Outputs: Speakon® combo and binding posts.

Features

Power levels matched to the most popular speakers used by entertainers
Optimized for maximum real-world headroom into 4- and 8-ohm speaker systems
Inputs: XLR, 1/4-inch TRS and phono input connectors for compatibility with any source
Outputs: Speakon® combo accepts 1/4-inch (TS) plugs or Speakon 2- and 4-pole plugs (connects 2 poles only). Binding posts support all other speaker wiring systems
Minimum depth chassis (10.1-inch / 257 mm) fits in compact, inexpensive effects racks
Lightweight - GX3 and GX5 less than 26 lb (12.5 kg). GX7 only 15.5 lb (7 kg)*
Detented gain controls for precise setting and matching of sensitivity
GuardRail™ automatically protects the amplifier and loudspeakers from damage due to temperature rise or overdrive without shutting down the show
Front panel LEDs monitor power, signal, and clipping
Subwoofer/satellite crossover built-in
