It is 30 years since the P2200 power amplifier was introduced in 1976, now, in 2006, Yamaha have marked the anniversary by announcing the new flagship Tn Series. Representing the culmination of 30 years of development and experience, Yamaha say that the new Tn series amplifiers are set to become the standard for a new generation of large-scale live sound systems.
Yamaha tell us that the Tn series amplifiers are ruggedly designed to deliver optimum performance even under tortuous tour conditions, while offering sonic quality befitting a top-line model with up to 2500 watts power output (T5n, stereo @ 2Î©). They say that the ability to stably drive load impedances as low as 2 ohms makes the Tn series amplifiers ideal for powering line-array systems on the road.
A high-volume fan cooling system and comprehensive protection circuitry help to maintain high reliability, and power consumption has been reduced by 50% compared to conventional amplifiers thanks to Yamaha's high-efficiency EEEngine amplifier technology. The Tn Series also includes on-board networking capability for remote control and monitoring, aptly denoted by the "n" of Tn.
