amplifiers the KES400 and KES600 uses less than 5% of
the energy required for normal amps to idle.
FEATURES:
 Eco-System™ Circuitry saves energy (and
money) and increases power.
 12 channels x 50 watts RMS at 8 Ohms (over
100W peak). KES400 8 channels.
 Individual and automatic channel resetting
protection for low impedance, overheating,
overloading, overvoltage and undervoltage.
 Individual gain controls for all channels.
 Electronic Link feature connects stereo inputs
channel 2 through 6 to channel 1. KES400
connects stereo inputs channel 2 through 4 to
channel 1.
 Side-mounted thermostatically controlled fan for
