Amplifier Hifonics ZXS1100/5

Classic ZEUS amplifiers have traditionally been designed in an analog manner and were large devices. These large ZEUS amplifiers are still revered almost cult-like by car hi-fi fans worldwide. However, the disadvantage of these giants is their considerable space requirement in the vehicle. For this reason, Hifonics engineers opted for advanced digital technology in designing the new ZEUS STREET ZXS amplifier series to achieve ultra-compact heat sink dimensions. This is primarily thanks to modern Class D technology, which, due to its very high efficiency of around 90%, consumes significantly less power than analog amplifiers of comparable performance. Another advantage is that the power cable cross-sections do not need to be as thick.

The small size in no way means a lack of power. As soon as you unpack it, you realize you are holding a genuine ZEUS amplifier. Despite their compact size, the models have a pleasantly heavy and massive feel and convey the solid quality you are accustomed to with Hifonics. Recessed aluminum logo badges, precisely milled model designations, and elegant end caps made of aluminum alloy visually underscore the unique combination of power and elegance that these amplifiers exude.

All ZXS models, of course, offer not only adjustable frequency crossovers but also the latest features such as automatic turn-on, which is essential for connection with modern vehicle electronics. High-level inputs are equipped with an advanced EPS® system that suppresses error messages in automotive diagnostic systems. Seamless radio reception is ensured by Hifonics IFT low-emission digital technology.

Energy class of the amplifierAmplifiers are divided into two basic classes: analog and digital . Analog amplifiers (A/B) have higher consumption requirements, but usually have a more natural sound. Digital amplifiers (D) have significantly lower consumption and higher efficiency, but the sound may not be as faithful as with classic analog amplifiers.	D
Number of amplifier channelsAmplifiers are divided into: - Monoblocks - 2-channel - 3-channel - 4-channel - 5-channel - 6-channel - multi-channel Each channel is used to power one speaker for the coaxial type, or one side if they are component speakers. Monoblock type amplifiers are mainly used for subwoofers. 2-channel are suitable for both subwoofers and, for example, the front pair of speakers in a car. 3-channel is used for front or rear speakers + subwoofer. 4-channel are used for front + rear speakers or 1 pair of speakers + subwoofer. 6 or 5-channel are used for 2 pairs of speakers + subwoofer, most often. Bridging means connecting the amplifier to a bridge, using the + pole from one channel and the - pole from the other channel. In most cases this is shown as "BRIDGED" on the amplifier.	5
RMS power into 4 ΩRMS power when loading speakers or subwoofer at 4 Ω. RMS power is the constant power of the amplifier and is one of the most important parameters when choosing an amplifier.	4 x 100 W + 1 x 225 W
RMS power into 2 ΩRMS power when loading speakers or subwoofer at 2 Ω. RMS power is the constant power of the amplifier and is one of the most important parameters when choosing an amplifier.	4 x 175 W + 1 x 400 W
High pass filter (HPF)HPF / HP or The "hi pass filter" offers the option of setting the amplifier using a potentiometer so that medium, possibly mid-bass and treble frequencies play upwards from a certain frequency. Example: Amplifiers most often have an HPF from 40 to 300 Hz. If we set the potentiometer to a value of approx. 150 Hz, the sound will be clipped so that it plays frequencies from 150 Hz up to the maximum upper limit of the entire frequency range of the amplifier, perhaps up to 20,000 Hz. We recommend setting this potentiometer in the range of 80-160 Hz. Thanks to this setting option, the speakers can handle a higher performance, as you will not overload them with bass in the lower frequency range.	50 - 5000 Hz
Low-pass filter (LPF)LPF / LP or "low pass filter" offers the possibility to adjust the amplifier using a potentiometer so that the lower band plays only the frequencies in a certain band that you need. This filter is used to adjust the frequency range for the subwoofer, so that it does not overload or distort the sound. Example: Amplifiers most often have an LPF from 20 to 300 Hz. We recommend setting this potentiometer in the range of 45-80 Hz.	50 - 500 Hz
SubsonicA subsonic filter is essentially a high-pass filter for very low frequencies, typically 45 Hz or lower. Anything below this setting is weakened. The point is that the subwoofer does not go below the subsonic filter setting and does not overload itself with very low frequencies. A useful function, if set correctly, the subwoofer is not overloaded.	10 - 40 Hz
Damping factorDF - Damping Factor . It is the ratio of the load (repro + cables, crossover, etc.) to the internal resistance of the amplifier. The bigger the DF, the more controlled the bass. Amplifiers with a lower DF tend to hum. Subwoofers with a higher Q in the bass reflex and sometimes in the enclosure will also cause humming.	> 300
High level inputsThe high-level input on the amplifier allows connection directly to the existing speakers in the car without additional purchase of an external high/low adapter. Important equipment in the case of installing an amplifier on an original car radio.	Yes
Automatic on and offThis function allows you to automatically switch on the amplifier.	Yes
Socket input terminalsFerrule terminals allow better wiring contact to the amplifier. It is also a more secure form of terminals. If you are tightening the sleeve terminals, we recommend retightening them after 1 day, as the connected cable gradually compresses.	Yes
Input for wired remote controlIf the amplifier has a remote control input.	Yes
Remote control included in the packageSome models of amplifiers also come with wired remote controls in the package, which on one side plug into the amplifier and on the other side you have a potentiometer that you can place anywhere in the cabin. A common place to place the remote control is under the steering wheel. The advantage is the regulation of power, and therefore volume, depending on driving conditions and the mood of the crew in the car.	Yes
