"LUCIA has an exceptionally small footprint and multiple mounting options and its input flexibility provides installers with an absolutely reliable and highly-cost effective solution" notes Klas Dalbjorn of Lab Gruppen. "To further increase cost efficiencies we have introduced new 60 W power models which now produce a 30% cost reduction in lifetime running costs whilst delivering all the same features as the alternative models."
Central to LUCIA's cost efficiencies is its Energy Star certification. After 20 minutes of no signal input, the amplifiers' automatically enter standby mode and power up within one second when signal returns. Additionally, LUCIA incorporate intelligent fan control where it provides silent operation in idle and lower output levels.
LUCIA's ultra-compact form factor - a half-rack 1U chassis - allows it to be tucked away inconspicuously wherever needed. LUCIA mounts behind video screens using the included wall bracket, tucks away in rack shelves or drawers, or attaches to the optional pole mount.
With the release of the LUCIA 60 W models, Lab Gruppen is providing a new version of its free Application Browser software which will support all nine LUCIA models. Also, a new improved rack mount kit is available for the entire LUCIA range as well as LAB Level; a new elegant looking table-top level control.
