Great sound, flexibility and ease of use
Lab.gruppen’s innovative LUCIA (Localized Utility Compact
design. Power, processing, control and I/O are conveniently placed
exactly where they are needed. In many AV applications requiring
solution that eliminates the complications and added expense
▸ RS232 – Remote control and monitoring from third party
control solutions
▸ GPIO – Remote control (e.g. wall panel) for channel switching,
level control and integration with paging systems
▸ Efficient Class D amplifier – Patented design for low distortion
and minimal heat dissipation
▸ Compact form factor – Half-rack, 1U chassis and supplied
bracket for discreet on-wall mounting (e.g. behind
display screens)
▸ Intelligent fan control – Silent operation at idle and at
lower output levels
▸ Fail-safe operation – Comprehensive short circuit, thermal,
and under-voltage protection
▸ Universal power supply – Operates at 100 - 240 V AC
(50 or 60 Hz)
▸ ENERGY STAR® qualified – Conforms to latest specification
energy efficiency standards
