IMP Box
- constant voltage source measurements
- extremely accurate voltage and current data
- perfect for speakers and components
- measuring levels up to 2500W (based on a 4Ohm load)
- 3 different level ranges (0dB, -20dB and-40dB)
- balanced analyzer outputs
- ultra high precision current shunt resistors
- very lightweight and portable
The IMP Box is a very useful small accessory. With the IMP Box you can easily measure the voltage and current during a frequency sweep. By dividing the two measurements after the sweep you receive an impedance measurement under constant voltage conditions. That means that you are able to measure the system or speaker under real conditions. To prevent damage to your analyzer when measuring with high power, the Imp box provides 3 different selectable output ranges. 0 dB, -20 dB and -40 dB.
By using an analyzer with 3 input channels you can perform a SPL and Impedance measurement with a single sweep and any level you want. Up to 2500W for a 4Ohm load! This is very usefull if you want a cheap and fast QC system. All you need is a laptop with your analyzer software and soundcard, 2 mini power amplifiers and the IMP Box.
Not for use with bridged amplifiers!
The IMP-Box works with Clio, LMS, EASERA, Audio Precision APx and many other analyzers...
