Biamp Community ALC-1604D 4 Channels x 1600W + DSP and Dante Amplif...
Product Overview
The Community ALC-1604D is a four-channel amplified loudspeaker controller delivering 1600W per channel with integrated DSP and Dante. It is built for large install-sound, emergency notification, and high-output commercial audio systems. Combining amplification, signal routing, DSP, and protective limiting in 1RU, it provides everything needed between a mixer and the loudspeakers in a Community system.
Product Description
The ALC-1604D provides four channels of power amplification and digital signal processing with analog and Dante inputs. Total power can be distributed asymmetrically across the outputs in any combination of low-impedance and 70/100V loads in single-ended or bridged configurations, with per-output power monitoring and automatic limiting. Bridged channel pairs drive loads down to 4 ohms at double single-channel power. Community-authored loudspeaker presets include equalization, high-pass filters, and multi-stage limiters tailored to each model, and 1024-tap FIR linear-phase processing ensures consistent response. Control and monitoring are handled through ArmoniaPlus System Manager software over standard Ethernet, and the power supply supports reliable operation on a UPS for mission-critical and fire-alarm systems.
Key Features
- Four channels at 1600W — Each of the four channels delivers up to 1600W, with bridged pairs driving 4-ohm loads at double power.
- Power Sharing technology — Total power can be loaded asymmetrically across outputs in any mix of low-impedance and 70/100V loads.
- Integrated DSP — 1024-tap FIR linear-phase processing reduces the need for external outboard equipment.
- Dante and analog inputs — Analog and Dante inputs simplify integration into new or existing systems.
- Loudspeaker presets — Community-authored presets include EQ, high-pass filters, and multi-stage protective limiters per model.
- Per-output monitoring — Power delivered from each output is individually monitored and automatically limited to safe ranges.
- Mission-critical ready — The power supply supports UPS operation and per-channel fault-indicating GPIO for fire-alarm systems.
- Compact 1RU — Four channels in 1RU reduce rack space and the lowest-in-class thermal dissipation minimizes cooling needs.

- Auditorium
- House of worship
