Radial Engineering Powerhouse 10 Slot Power-Rack, 19" 3RU, 1600 Ma Power Supply

Radial Engineering's Powerhouse is a 10-module 500 series power-rack designed to accommodate both older and newer 500 series modules and provide the studio with maximum density in a standard 19" rack frame.

The design begins with heavy 14-gauge steel construction and baked enamel finish for maximum shielding against noise and greater durability when subjected to road use. An 'easy glide' slider tray makes it painless to align the PCB connector to the 15-pin card edge receptacle when swapping modules.

The rear panel sports a standard array of XLRs to connect to and from the workstation or mixer. In addition, a series of 1/4" TRS connectors enable cross-patching and parallel signal processing. Instead of having to hard patch modules together using a cable, the Powerhouse incorporates an innovative feed switch that instantly connects the signal to the adjacent module. This makes building signal chains quick and eliminates the need for cable clutter. And unlike older racks that require soldering when modules are used in stereo, the Powerhouse is equipped with a stereo link function that takes care of the task with a simple slide of a switch.

Older racks can only provide an average of 130 mA per slot, but the Powerhouse boasts a 1600 mA power supply that lets you share the power as needed. This means it can deliver 300 mA to your two tube preamps and still have over 1000 mA leftover. And just like all Workhorse racks, the Powerhouse is equipped with extra safety features to ensure safe use when mixing and matching various brands.

Used as a rackmounted side car or to create a robust channel strip for your studio or live shows, the Powerhouse is, well, a powerhouse. Grab yours today!
