The RMXa Series amplifiers from QSC offer true professional-quality performance at an affordable price. The 2-rackspace model RMX2450a features output power of 450 watts per channel at 8 ohms. It has a compact chassis less than 16" deep. RMXa amplifiers include a comprehensive set of features including XLR and 1/4" balanced inputs, Speakon and binding post outposts for convenient connectivity. User-defeatable clip limiters and selectable low-frequency filters optimize sonic performance.

The RMX amplifiers are among the most reliable products in pro audio. It takes some real effort to blow these things up. The RMX design has had a long time to be tested in the marketplace and the results are in. This amp is a beast. Long hours, long roads, hot environments, indoors, outdoors, you name it. The RMX amps are among the best built, most reliable power sources you will find.
