ESX VX8000 PRO

With the VISION VX PRO series, ESX is ushering in a new era of high-performance car audio amplifiers. The focus is on uncompromising output power, combined with state-of-the-art circuit technology and exceptionally high efficiency.

The ESX VX8000 PRO is one of the most powerful mono amplifiers in the VISION VX PRO series and delivers an impressive 8,000 watts RMS into 1 ohm. Thanks to highly efficient Ultra Class D technology and an efficiency rating of up to 93%, the amplifier is ideal for demanding SPL applications and particularly powerful subwoofer systems.

Despite its enormous output power, the VX8000 PRO features a compact aluminum heat sink designed for optimal heat dissipation. Sturdy power and speaker terminals, as well as screw-mounted RCA jacks, underscore its high-quality construction.

A distinctive feature of the VX PRO series is its two RCA inputs with different sensitivity levels. The LOW INPUT is designed for signal sources with low output voltage, while the HIGH INPUT allows for the connection of devices with a higher RCA output level, such as DSP processors or high-to-low converters. This allows the input sensitivity to be optimally adjusted to the respective signal source.

An adjustable low-pass filter, a subsonic filter, and a variable bass boost are available for precise tuning to the connected subwoofer system. A clipping LED and a triple protection circuit round out the extensive feature set.
