FIG 1 LAB GRUPPEN 2 x 60 Watt Commercial Amplifier Energy Star
Certification

The CA602 2 x 60-Watt Commercial Amplifier provides the perfect solution for commercial and industrial applications requiring great sounding distributed audio coupled with power conservation and reduced operating expense. Equipped with 2 independent audio channels, the CA602 provide amplification to 2 separate zones. Capable of delivering high-quality sound over both Low-Z (4/8 Ohm) and High-Z (70/100 V) loudspeaker configurations offering extreme flexibility on every channel. The CA602 is easy to install and operate
– even for non-technical personnel. Simply put, the CA602 is ideal-suited for bars & restaurants, retail destinations, hotels, corporate, education or other venues needing background music and/or a public address system.

FIG 2 Energy Star Certified

*Energy Star Certified**

Not only does CA602’s direct drive constant power technology provide superior audio performance and reliability, it also consumes less mains power than competing models, which has earned it Energy Star certification. This amazing technology makes it possible to
design and build powerful amplifier systems that not only save money on the electrical bill,
but also reduce the requirements and cost at the installation for the mains supply. In fact, it is
likely that installation can be done utilising the in-place mains infrastructure. This adds up to
significant installation and operational savings and protects the environment.

Easy to Install

FIG 3 Easy to Install

The CA602 comes equipped with rubber feet, enabling the amps to be placed on a desk, shelf or any clear surface without any additional installation requirements. However, optional rack mounting
hardware is also supplied, allowing one or several models to be housed and protected inside an enclosure. This adds extensive flexibility as a single product can be housed in a half 19″ rack or full rack enclosure as well as a pair of amplifiers can easily be mounted side-by-side in a single rack space. With the included brackets the unit can also be mounted to a wall or under a table/shelf.

FIG 4 Automatic Power On And Off

Automatic Power On/Off
The CA602 has a flexible power scheme with seamless and automatic power on/off based on the input signal, which reduces consumption when a signal is not present. With virtually zero configuration required, an energy smart and hassle-free amplifier system can easily be set up for hands-off operation. If the CA602 is powered on but does not receive an input signal for 20 minutes, the system automatically enters sleep mode to reduce power consumption. As soon as the Auto Ramp circuit detects a signal, the system powers on and normal operation resumes. The amplifier can also be instantly forced into standby mode or awakened via the front panel power button.

FIG 5 Sublimely Simple Controls

Sublimely Simple Controls
CA602’s controls are sublimely intuitive, allowing the operator to quickly make adjustments. The front panel power button and Master volume knobs are easily accessible, enabling virtually anyone to operate the system. Bass and Treble controls are also available for fine tuning – but require a tool when making changes.

FIG 6 Easy to Hook Up

Easy to Hook Up
For connecting a balanced source such as a mixer or audio processor, a standard 3-pin Euro block Input socket is provided. Alternatively, RCA cables can be connected for unbalanced stereo sources (summed to mono), such as players, phones or computers, however only one input source should be used at a time. Loudspeaker Output is provided in the form of a standard 4-pin Euro block socket.

FIG 7 Output Configuration

Output Configuration
Intuitive configuration of the flexible output channels is provided directly adjacent to the rear panel Euroblock output connector with dip switches, which allow selection of 100 V, 70 V, 8 Ω, or 4 Ω operation. This configures both the maximum voltage of the output and the gain through the device. An individual control engages the built-in high-pass filter, which should be used on all constant voltage systems to avoid saturation on transformer-enabled loudspeakers and to help maintain sound integrity.

FIG 8 Expandable Remote Control

Expandable Remote Control
The RJ45 receptacle per channel, on the rear panel opens up a broad range of remote control options, including the CRC-V Series of wall controllers and a stylish tabletop controller, the LAB.LEVEL. All can be interconnected via inexpensive and readily-available Ethernet cabling.

FIG 9 System Scalability

System Scalability
Commercial installs vary widely in scope and often grow and change over time. The CA602 is part of a family of products that provides both single and dual zone products that are perfect for building out a system to any size. With its individual zone volume and remote control capabilities, the CA602 is an ideal building block for a dynamic and scalable system solution.

FIG 10 Real-World Energy Savings

Real-World Energy Savings
The CA602 2 x 60-Watt Commercial Amplifier makes it easy to bring highest- quality music and announcements to commercial and industrial environments in an easy to integrate – and even easier to operate system. Plus, with features such as its Auto Ramp and revolutionary direct drive constant power technology, the Energy Star certified CA602 can generate enough energy savings to pay for itself in virtually no time at all.
