The remarkable EPQ2000 packs 
a heart-stopping 2,000 Watts of 
output power into an exceptionally 
lightweight (15.4 lbs/7.0 kg) package, 
thanks to our Accelerated Transient 
Response (ATR) technology. Ample 
power (2 x 1,000 Watts @ 4 Ohms; 
2 x 600 Watts @ 8 Ohms) and 
high-tech effi
  ciency  combine,  giving 
you a feather-light, supercharged 
workhorse that will keep your rig 
kicking for years and years to come.
Accelerated Transient 
Response Delivers the 
Knockout Punch
It takes huge pulses of energy (current and 
voltage) to propel a woofer cone out fast 
enough to match a bass beat. That’s called 
Transient Response and it’s the holy grail of 
amp design. By carefully selecting transistors 
with extremely high slew rates and optimizing 
other proprietary parts of our circuitry, 
our amps are able to react instantly to even 
the most demanding electronic bass impulses. 
If the woofers in your PA system can keep 
up, your audience will hear a tighter, crisper, 
more natural sound.
Instead of operating relatively continuously 
like most power amps, the EPQ2000 features 
rail tracking for eff ectively modulating the power supply rails with only the peaks of the 
input signal. This technology has revolutionized pro audio amp designs with its outstanding 
performance and effi
  ciency. When combined with switching-mode power supplies that do 
away with heavy toroid transformers, our new designs provide more dynamic punch and, 
since they are so much more effi
  cient, run cooler and don’t require huge, heavy heat sinks.
