The OCTANE is the newest amplifier from the Phoenix Gold "limited" collection. Based on performance upgrades, this exclusive three-channel amplifier features 800 watts of output power and includes a dedicated mono section optimized for bass hungry installations. In addition, a built-in, one band parametric sub equalizer (Bass Cube(tm)) and an integrated "Rail" stiffening capacitor add to the OCTANE's unique feature-set.
OCTANE'S styling embodies totally unique racing cosmetics including an ultra-light aluminum chassis, laser-cut expanded metal venting and logo, and Superbrite(tm) Blue Tri-LED's, all wrapped in carbon-fiber graphics.
Octane Features* One-of-a-kind carbon fiber cosmetic finish* Large capacitor bank built-in on the rail voltage to allow for internal voltage stiffing during demanding musical dynamics.* Built-in Basscube allows 15 dB of parametric boost and subsonic filter for low pass section of the amplifier.* TCCH(tm) Thermal Convection Cooled Heatsink. This proprietary design uses two variable speed fans to ensure that the Octane keeps its cool when the music gets hot!* High-current Triple Darlington output stage. This tried and true topology is the standard for outstanding dynamic peak output performance.* TAIM(tm) Timed Acoustically Integrated Muting. Insures dead silent turn on & off, no clicks, pops or buzzes.* 24dB per octave, high pass and low pass crossover. Continuously variable from 40Hz to 800Hz.* Twin-T(tm) bass boost circuit provides up to 18dB of boost at 45Hz.* Superbrite(tm) Tri-LED power-on indicator.* Optional LPL44(tm) Low Pass Level controller allows the driver to adjust bass volume from the driver's seat.* Optional RDDP(tm) Remote Diagnostic Display Panel allows the driver to monitor the amplifier's battery voltage, power-on, thermal and overload status with use of the SDT(tm) or RDDP(tm) kit
