Designed for the most demanding applications in both 
touring and installed sound, EV's ultra-reliable Tour Grade 
amplifiers offer a unique combination of output power, 
sonic excellence and high efficiency, all in a compact, 
lightweight format that's ideal for life on the road. based 
on grounded-bridge Class-H topology, Tour Grade amps 
feature an integrated switch-mode power supply for 
maximum power per pound, with plenty of headroom to 
handle transient peaks and low loads. The optional RCM-
26 remote control module adds state-of-the-art IRIS-
Net-controlled DSP, including FIR-Drive loudspeaker 
optimization, IIR filters, signal routing, level control, 
dynamics and system supervision. The optional RCM-28 
module provides additional DSP options as well as the 
revolutionary oMNEo Media Networking Architecture for 
the most demanding applications.
