The world is full of amplifiers that do one thing –
amplify audio signals. But at Mackie Designs, we’ve
always put out the extra effort to provide more qual-
ity and more features than our competitors while
maintaining a comparable (or lower) price.
The FR Series™ power amplifiers are designed to
perform reliably under the most adverse conditions,
and we’ve added a bundle of extra features, so you
don’t have to put out the extra bucks to buy a
bunch of add-ons or plug-ins to make your sound
system do what you want it to do.
2) Short-circuit
protection with
separate L/R indicat-
ing LEDs
3) Thermal protection
with combined CH1
and CH2 Cold and Hot
indicating LEDs
4) SCR Crowbar DC
offset protection
■ Low-cut filter with
variable frequency
control (Off – 170Hz)
■ Infrasonic
1
stabiliza-
tion eliminates ultra-
low-frequency noise
caused by micro-
phone handling,
stage rumble
■ Constant directivity
horn compensation
with variable high-
frequency boost
control (2kHz to
6kHz)
■ Amp Mode switch for
Stereo, Mono, or
Bridge modes
■ Limiter to eliminate
clipping in both
channels
