Elan D1650 Specifications

Sweet Sixteen
Digital Cool
16 Channels of Clean, Cool Power
More Channels
The latest in the D Series line of Digital Power
Amplifiers, the D1650 has 16 channels of
amplification rated at 60 WPC RMS into 4 Ohms
and 45 WPC RMS into 8 Ohms. These 16 channels
can be configured to power up to 8 stereo zones,
16 monaural zones, or any combination of the two –
making it the ideal amplifier for the System12,
ELAN's 8-zone multi-room A/V controller. Of course,
with 16 channels of great sound, the D1650 also
happens to be the ideal amplifier for just about any
distributed audio system.
Wonderfully Flexible
The D1650 allows for easy configuration of its
inputs and outputs. A and B stereo busses allow you

to route one set of inputs to other inputs without the
use of additional cables. Buffered loop outputs for
each channel make it easy to configure multi-room
listening areas in either stereo or mono. Eight
12VDC trigger inputs allow each pair of channels to
be powered up and muted independently. A 12VDC
trigger output can be used to turn on or mute
additional amplifiers.
Runs Cool
Class T Digital Technology gives the D1650 an 85%
efficiency rating – a spec unreachable by traditional
Class-A/B amplifiers. Class T also has a THD +
noise specification of less than 0.04% - a spec
unattainable by Class D amplifiers. This low-
heat/high-efficiency design, combined with an
With 16 channels of digital amplification stable down to four Ohms, the D1650 has all
the channels and power you need for any distributed audio application – and it
happens to be the perfect companion to ELAN's 8-zone A/V controller – the System12.
Waste not - want not. Class T digital technology means the D1650 is not wasting its
energy producing heat which, in turn, won't leave you wanting for more power and
better sound.

amplifiers virtually clip proof!
ultra-high-efficiency toroidal transformer and
200,000 uF bulk storage capacitance, ensures that
all 16 channels can deliver their full-rated power at
the same time. Even when it's running all-out, the
D1650 remains cool and sounds clean.
Looks Cool
The D1650 has a cool-blue LED display that shows
the level settings for each channel. Channel levels
can be individually adjusted via front panel buttons,
and the 'lockout' feature ensures that finely tuned
level settings cannot be inadvertently changed.
Sixteen blue LEDs indicate signal presence for each
channel. Sixteen red LEDs indicate clipping and the
automatic activation of the ACE
indeed.
