Follow on Google News | Phoenix Gold Blows the Doors Off of CES with the Introduction of Its High-Performance Elite-SeriesNew Elite-Series of Amplifiers, Subwoofers and Components Offers Premium Features and Extreme Performance to Satisfy Even the Most Demanding Car Audio Enthusiast
By: Phoenix Gold Initially, Phoenix Gold is rolling out three Elite-Series amplifiers – the Elite.1, Elite.2 and Elite.4. These are some of the most powerful amplifiers Phoenix Gold has ever built, and each amplifier comes with a birth certificate guaranteeing the amplifier is underrated by 5 to 20%. These amplifiers feature Burr Brown op-amps – typically used only in high-end home systems – for ultra-low distortion/noise and high-speed/bandwidth for maximum musical resolution. Each amplifier comes shipped in a black protective bag and has clip indicators on the amplifier/remote bass knob, an included remote bass knob, dented crossover controls and much more. Amplifier specs are as follows: Elite.1 Class-D Monoblock Amplifier Dimensions: 23.3” L x 10.5” W x 2.6” H Power Rating: 3200 Watts x 1 Channel / 1 Ohm 2400 Watts x 1 Channel / 2 Ohms Low Pass Range: 30Hz to 300Hz Low Pass Slope: 24dB/Octave Subsonic Range: 10Hz to 55Hz Subsonic Filter Slope: 24dB/Octave Bass Boost: 0 to +18dB Power Terminal: 1/0GA Elite.2 Class-A/B Two-Channel Amplifier Dimensions: 23.3” L x 10.5” W x 2.6” H Power Rating: 450 Watts x 2 Channel / 1 Ohm* 375 Watts x 2 Channel / 2 Ohms *Reactive Load Measurement Low Pass Range: 40Hz to 4kHz Low Pass Slope: 18dB/Octave High Pass Filter Range: 20Hz to 4kHz High Pass Filter Slope: 18dB/Octave Power Terminal: 1/0GA Elite.4 Class-A/B Four-Channel Amplifier Dimensions: 23.3” L x 10.5” W x 2.6” H Power Rating: 300 Watts x 4 Channel / 1 Ohm* 225 Watts x 4 Channel / 2 Ohms 150 Watts x 4 Channel / 4 Ohms *Reactive Load Measurement Low Pass Range: 40Hz to 4kHz Low Pass Slope: 18dB/Octave High Pass Filter Range: 20Hz to 4kHz High Pass Filter Slope: 18dB/Octave Power Terminal: 1/0GA For CES, Phoenix Gold will be showing off a single subwoofer, the Elite.12d. The 3.0” long-throw voice coil handles 1600-watts RMS/3200-watts PEAK and is comprised of a vented titanium/aluminum hybrid former that is extremely light and strong. The dual spider system keeps the voice coil centered and provides the perfect mechanical force for the moving assembly of the cone and voice coil for smooth, effortless output even during massive excursion or extreme power. FEA optimization allows the motor force to remain consistent over a wide range of power and excursion levels, resulting in intricate bass replication and massive output. An aluminum mass heat sink wicks away heat from critical areas, while specifically placed vents allow for proper airflow throughout the voice coil’s travel path. Specs are as follow: Elite.12d Dual 4-Ohm High Excursion Subwoofer: Power Handling: 1600w RMS - 3200w PEAK Impedance: Dual 4 ohm Frequency Response: 20 to 300Hz Peak to Peak Excursion: 60mm Terminal: Nickel Plated 12-Ga Optimized for Sealed or Vented Enclosures The final Elite-Series product being introduced is the Elite.65cs component set. The set is composed of 25mm silk dome tweeters and 24dB Glen Phillips external audiophile crossovers designed for smooth, musical output with excellent spectral clarity. The tweeter housing is machined from a single block of aluminum then anodized and threaded with an aluminum retaining nut for rock solid and easy installation, and also to act as a heat sink for the neodymium motor structure. Smooth termination dual-roll surround helps reduce unwanted resonances and acoustical artifacts while eliminating mechanical vibrations. Two-stage lightbulb tweeter protection makes its nearly impossible for a hard-clipping or broken amplifier to damage your tweeters. Specs are as follow: Elite.65cs Component Speaker Set: Power Handling: 150w RMS - 300w PEAK Impedance: 4 Ohm Frequency Response: 50Hz to 20kHz In addition to the Ti2-Series, Phoenix Gold is also using the 2011 CES Show to debut their new R3-Series and SL-Series subwoofers, SD-Series digital amplifiers and a five-channel class A/B/D hybrid Ti-Series amplifier.
