Gladen RC 90c2

The Gladen RC 90c2 is a compact and powerful 2-channel amplifier from the RC Line that impresses with high-quality Class A/B technology and versatile connection options. With an output power of 2 x 85 watts RMS at 4 ohms or 2 x 130 watts RMS at 2 ohms, this power amplifier is ideal for driving high-quality speaker systems. In bridge mode, up to 260 watts RMS at 4 ohms is available, allowing even a subwoofer to be driven reliably.

Thanks to the built-in high-level input with automatic power-on function (Auto Sense), the amplifier can be easily integrated into existing in-car audio systems, even if the original car stereo does not have RCA outputs. Adjustable high-pass and low-pass filters allow for flexible adaptation to the connected speakers or subwoofers.

The high-quality construction, featuring a double-sided printed circuit board and modern SMD components, ensures reliable signal processing. Thanks to its compact dimensions, the Gladen RC 90c2 is versatile enough to be used even in spaces with limited room.
