A Benchmark For Touring Amplification
Over the past decade, the tight and transparent sound of
Lab.gruppen touring ampliers has earned the praise of renowned
FOH engineers and leading sound rental companies worldwide.
FP 10000Q, the agship four-channel model of the FP+ Series,
continues this tradition. At the core of the FP 10000Q’s performance
is the patented Class TD output stage, a breakthrough amplier
topology that approaches the exceptional efciency of Class D
while retaining the sonic purity of proven Class B designs. Further
contributing to the remarkable efciency of the FP 10000Q is a
Regulated Switch Mode Power Supply (R.SMPS), which gives the
added benet of stabilizing rail voltages to the output even with wide
uctuations of mains voltage. A highly rened and updated circuit
layout optimizes the interaction of R.SMPS and Class TD to produce
the extraordinary power density of the FP 10000Q.
To keep its cool under extreme demands, the FP 10000Q relies on
Lab.gruppen’s proprietary Intercooler. This innovation uses thousands
of copper ns to multiply the exposed heatsink surface’s rapid heat
dissipation. Also, all output devices are mounted transverse to the
airow for uniform cooling. As a result, the FP 10000Q delivers
Lab.gruppen’s trademark “all the power, all the time” with no
degradation of sonic performance.
To maximize headroom in any application, the FP 10000Q offers
adjustable input gain along with Lab.gruppen’s exclusive Voltage
Peak Limiter (VPL). Adjustable on a per-channel basis, VPL optimizes
the output for any load, from a single massive subwoofer to a series
of HF compression drivers.
The comprehensive warning and protection features on the
FP 10000Q safeguard output circuits and connected loads while
also extending amplier life and minimizing chance of service
interruptions. Whether it’s a matter of faulty wiring, improper use, or
extreme ambient temperatures, the FP 10000Q gives clear indication
of any problems. Automatic protection measures engage only at
critical thresholds. Operating conditions are re-checked every six
seconds and, if a fault is detected, normal operation is resumed when
measurements return to nominal.
The FP 10000Q is shipped with a NomadLink network interface as
standard. In conjunction with DeviceControl software, or the leading
third party control platforms, NomadLink network allows monitoring
of all key amplier parameters and remote control of power on/off,
channel mutes, and channel solo functions. (NomadLink requires the
separate NLB 60E NomadLink Bridge & Network Controller).
▸ Very high power and channel density – The four-channel
FP 10000Q delivers a total of 10000 W (4 x 2500 W @ 2 ohms) in
only 2U.
▸ Four-channel exibility – Four channels in one cabinet increases
efciency, exibility and value in powering monitor systems, line
arrays, and bi- or tri-amped systems. Adjacent channels bridgeable
for 2- or 3-channel operation.
▸ Lab.gruppen sound quality – FP 10000Q ampliers maintain the
impeccable sonic performance standards set by the original
fP Series, with the same durability and even greater efciency.
▸ NomadLink® network ready – Monitoring and control of key
functions accessible via the intuitive DeviceControl software and
the robust, daisy-chained NomadLink network, as well as by the
leading third party control platforms.
▸ Patented Class TD amplier topology – Road-proven output
stage delivers Class B audio quality with Class D efciency.
▸ Regulated Switch Mode Power Supply (R.SMPS™) – Output
power remains constant even with signicant drops in the mains
voltage.
▸ Efcient cooling system – Unique, lightweight Intercooler®
copper cooling system dissipates more heat to allow extended
peak output.
▸ Adjustable parameters – Selectable Gain, scalable Voltage
Peak Limiter (VPL™), and bridge-mode operation allow custom
conguration for any system or application.
▸ XLR input connectors
▸ Heavy-duty binding post or speakON® output connectors
▸ Comprehensive protection and warning – Excessive output
current, DC, high temperature, very high frequency (VHF), short
circuit, open load, mains fuse protection, and soft start.
