UK - The QSC CXD Amplifier platform introduced earlier this year at Infocomm in Orlando, FL was recognised with a PLASA Award for Innovation PLASA London 2013. Featuring user configurable, built-in DSP, this amplifier platform includes Flexible Amplifier Summing Technology (FAST), which allows the amp's total power allocation to be distributed across one, two three or all four of its outputs, enabling amp channels to be combined for maximum current or voltage output, depending on the requirements.

The judging panel, composed of industry experts in the field of lighting, sound and installation technology, commented: "This is an incredibly flexible amplifier that can be used in almost any situation. It can be sub-divided and reconfigured, and will work well in installations or as hire stock."

"CXD and PLD amplifiers are a reflection of our use of cutting-edge technologies and our deep understanding of power amplification, DSP and loudspeaker engineering and we're delighted to see that the PLASA judges feel the same way," relates Ray van Straten, QSC Sr. director, marketing communications and training & education.

The award was received by Mark Bailey, QSC EMEA sales director, and Peter James, managing director of Shure Distribution UK, QSC's Distributor in the UK and Ireland. ""I'm very pleased to see the QSC CXD sitting in its rightful place in the Innovations Gallery at PLASA 2013," commented Peter James. "QSC's return to the field of cutting-edge amplifier design this year has shown that they're still the world leaders in what is now a very crowded market."
