Ampetronic CLS002

The Ampetronic CLS2 is the second unit in a series of induction loop drivers aimed at the demands of the electrical and audio-visual contractor.

Designed for simple discreet installation, the CLS2 is one of the most cost effective and capable solutions in its class. The amplifier is compact, yet the most powerful unit available designed specifically for wall mounting. All connections and controls are secured behind a tamper resistant, hinged, detachable cover.

Input options are extensive, with four independent inputs for balanced microphone, balanced and unbalanced line, low impedance and 100V – line speaker systems, plus priority alarm, doorbell or telephone connections.

Backed by Ampetronic’s standard 5 year warranty and comprehensive support services, the CLS2 is truly fit and forget.
