Lab Gruppen FA602 US1 Flexible 2-Channel Commercial Power Amplifier

FA602 – 2 x 60 Watt Commercial Amplifier

MSRP (Excl. US): USD 379.00
Dual-channel amplifier with Direct Drive Technology and Energy Star Certification.

Overview

The FA602 2 x 60 Watt amplifier is designed for commercial and industrial environments requiring high-quality distributed audio, energy efficiency, and reduced operational costs. It supports both Low-Z (4/8 Ω) and High-Z (70/100 V) loudspeaker systems, offering exceptional flexibility across all channels. With simple installation, intuitive controls, and professional performance, the FA602 is ideal for bars, restaurants, retail spaces, hotels, corporate facilities, schools, and other venues needing background music or public address systems.

Energy Star Certified

FA602’s direct drive constant power technology delivers superior audio performance while consuming significantly less power than traditional amplifiers. Its Energy Star certification ensures reduced electricity costs and lower demands on the building’s mains infrastructure. This results in real installation savings and long-term environmental benefits.

Easy to Install

The FA602 includes rubber feet for quick, surface-level installation without tools. Optional rack-mounting hardware allows the amplifier to be installed in a half-rack or full-rack space, or mounted under tables and shelves using the included brackets. Flexible installation options make it suitable for any system design.

Automatic Power On/Off

A smart power system provides seamless auto on/off functionality based on input signal detection. If no signal is present for 20 minutes, the FA602 enters sleep mode to conserve power. When the Auto Ramp circuit detects a signal, the amplifier powers up instantly. The front-panel button also allows manual standby control.

Tamperproof Gain Controls

Rear-panel input gain controls prevent unauthorized adjustments. Settings can be modified when needed but require a tool for fine-tuning, ensuring consistent system performance.

Easy Connectivity

The FA602 features:

• 3-pin Euroblock balanced input

• 2-pin Euroblock loudspeaker output
  This ensures simple, secure installation for mixers, processors, and distributed speaker systems.

Flexible Output Configuration

Rear-panel DIP switches allow configuration for:

• 100 V

• 70 V

• 8 Ω

• 4 Ω

The selectable high-pass filter protects transformer-enabled speakers and maintains clean audio quality on constant-voltage systems.

Expandable Remote Control

Dual RJ45 ports support a wide range of remote controllers, including CRC-V wall controllers and LAB.LEVEL tabletop units. All connect easily via standard Ethernet cable for extended control options.

Scalable System Design

Part of a family of single- and dual-zone amplifiers, the FA602 integrates perfectly into scalable installations. Its flexible control and zoning options make it an ideal foundation for expanding commercial audio systems.

Real-World Energy Savings

With Auto Ramp technology and ultra-efficient constant power operation, the Energy Star certified FA602 can significantly reduce power consumption—often enough to pay for itself quickly. It provides high-quality audio with minimal operating cost.
