RideAmp-250Q is a high-powered audio amplifier that is purpose-built for on-board applications like dark rides, coasters, transportation vehicles, and parades. Specially designed for vehicle applications, it’s a perfect companion to RidePlayer or RidePlayerX.
At Alcorn McBride, we are dedicated to creating tools that enable attraction designers to completely immerse guests in the themed world that they have envisioned. When it comes to high-profile attractions, ride vehicles with on-board audio systems often play a key role in this vision.
As part of our suite of RideAmp products, RideAmp-250Q has been uniquely designed for vehicles with high-powered audio devices. It provides 4-channels of amplification capable of delivering a formidable 255W of output power per channel. Want to breath a little extra life into those large subwoofers or bass transducers, just bridge outputs to achieve up to 500W of bone-crunching output power.
If you’re looking for more discrete channels, check out this product’s little brother; RideAmp-25H. It delivers 16-channels at 25W of output power each, making it the ideal choice for driving mid-range and high-range speakers, as well as haptics or transducers.
When combined with the incredible capabilities of RidePlayer or RidePlayerX, our RideAmp products deliver features never before seen in a vehicle amplifier. This includes Dante/AES67 network audio input for all-digital signal distribution, protecting your audio experience from the electrical noise introduced by the motors and actuators in the vehicle.
Vibration-resistant design, efficient DC power input, rugged connectors, and flexible mounting options make RideAmp ideal for even the toughest on-board audio applications.
