iK81 Amplifier

The iKON iK81 is an advanced 8-channel controller amplifier which
combines very high power density with superb audio performance,
state-of-the-art DSP and network control for WPM systems.
The iK81 can deliver a full 1250 watts per channel into 2, 4 or
8 ohms with all channels driven while remaining highly efficient.
Its high efficiency reduces the energy drawn from the mains supply
and ensures the power reserves needed to deliver superb sound
under arduous live conditions.
Ethernet is used for system remote control and monitoring via
Martin Audio's VU-NET software application, while a user-friendly
front panel interface allows full local control of all features. Dante
digital audio network inputs are also provided for digital audio
distribution and control.

Powerful DSP is fully integrated into the iK81 to provide a multitude
of features. It also provides up to 1000 FIR filter taps @ 48kHz on
each output channel, which is essential to implement DISPLAY's
wide bandwidth optimisation process in the WPM line array.
The iK81 employs comprehensive protection functions to maintain
safe operating conditions of both the amplifier and the loudspeakers
driven — including a sophisticated loudspeaker limiter suite which
incorporates peak, RMS and excursion limiting, as well as multi-
band limiting for passive 2-way systems.
