Ottocanali Series Quick Guide
2 : 1.Welcome
Congratulations on buying a Powersoft Ottocanali
Series amplifier!
We know you are eager to use your new Ottocanali
amplifier, but please take a moment to read this quick guide
and the safety instructions. In case you have any questions,
please do not hesitate to contact your dealer or Powersoft.
The Ottocanali Series is specifically designed for instal-
lation applications. Ottocanali Series offers smaller dimen-
sions, lighter weight and the traditionally amazing sound
quality and reliability of all Powersoft products.
The built in PFC (Power Factor Correction) allows flaw-
less worldwide operation with any AC mains voltage, from
100 to 240V; patented SRM (Smart Rails Management)
technology allows to maximize the efficiency of the system
and drastically reduce power consumption at any load and
usage condition. This system automatically alters the rails
working voltage according to the instaneous power require-
ments of the system. A low output power requires a lower
rails voltage which in turn yields lower power consumption
while at the same time guaranteeing lightning fast switching
to full rails voltage when the system requires full power.
Ottocanali Series implements redundant power supplies
for maximum reliability even in case of system fault. In case
of damages in one power supply, the other one is capable to
maintain the system up, guaranteeing non-stop functional-
ity even in harsh conditions.
Ottocanali Series is designed to work with lo-Z (from 2 �)
and with 70V/100V distributed lines: any mixed configuration
of low and high impedance output loads can be realized,
making the Ottocanali Series suitable to all application in
installed sound reinforcement systems.
Ottocanali Series encompasses three models:
f Ottocanali 12K4 delivering up to 1500 W per channel at 4�
f
f Ottocanali 8K4 delivering up to 1000 W per channel at 4�
f
f Ottocanali 4K4 delivering up to 500 W per channel at 4�

Each model is available in three versions: normal, with DSP
plus Dante™ and with DSP plus Ethernet connectivity.
