Most loudspeaker manufacturers recommend an amplifier with power output equal to the speaker's \"Program (Music) Power\" rating or two times the \"Continuous (RMS) Power\" rating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe QSC GX5 power amplifier\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eprovides full performance for 500 watt (Program) speakers. It supplies maximum possible power to 4 ohm and 8 ohm loads. Owners of popular 4 ohm loudspeakers (dual-woofer, two-way models, and many subwoofers) will find the 700 watt (4 ohm) power of the QSC GX5 an ideal match.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"webtext-block webtext-switched webtext-block--text\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eEfficient operation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe QSC GX5 uses a Class H system, based on key elements of the PLX Series, almost doubling power in the same size and weight. QSC design expertise allows the output devices to shift from low-power to high-power rails in less than a millionth of a second, ensuring that the output power is always right where it needs to be without excess loss.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth the 700-watt QSC GX5 and 425-watt GX3 amplifiers use premium toroidal power transformers for reliable \"mid-weight\" performance. A variable-speed fan moves air crosswise through the amplifier, drawing cool air in over the power transformer, through the fan, and then over the heat sink. This keeps the transformer cool and allows a full-size heat sink to fit in a down-sized chassis. As always, the\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eamplifiers are fully protected from the usual hazards of the trade, ensuring stable performance and long life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"webtext-block webtext-switched webtext-block--text\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGuardRail: protection from overloads\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGuardRail protection delivers full peak power while preventing detrimental overloads on\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003ethe QSC GX5.

The QSC GX Series supports this mode with a Crossover switch that splits the full-range input entering Ch 1, sending 20Hz-100Hz to the sub (Ch 1) and 100Hz-20kHz to the top box (Ch 2). The front panel gain controls balance the sub and top box, while GuardRail optimizes peak power into the sub and top individually, for greater musical impact and dynamic range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"webtext-block webtext-switched webtext-block--text\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQSC GX5 700-watt Power Amplifier Features:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"webtext-block--colcount\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePower levels matched to the most popular speakers\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOptimized for maximum real-world headroom into 4 ohm and 8 ohm speaker systems\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eInputs: XLR, 1\/4\" TRS and phono input connectors for compatibility with any source\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOutputs: Speakon combo accepts, 1\/4\" (TS) plugs or Speakon 2-pole and 4-pole plugs (connects 2 poles only).
