Hertz HCP 1D amplifier

The HCP 1D is a class D mono amplifier in a compact design. All Hertz Compact Power amplifiers are built with high quality internal components. The heat dissipation system is optimized so that heat is transferred to the heatsink and then dissipated around the sides of the amplifier. The HCP 1D has been designed to be used in multiple configurations. Using the HRC (Hertz Remote Control) remote, the volume of the subwoofer can be remotely controlled with extreme precision.

The Hertz HCP 1D amplifier uses these technologies

  • Extruded aluminum heatsink provides high thermal performance efficiency - using the top side of the heatsink to effectively dissipate heat generated by electronic components. The internal temperature remains constant at all power levels.
  • A large number of filters for maximum versatility: Low-Pass, Hi-Pass, Band-Pass, Full Range, Subsonic, Bass Boost, Phase and Mono. Filtered pre-amplified outputs along with multiple adjustments are included on the HCP 1D, offering the user endless connection options with any source.
  • Special balanced input circuits eliminate electromagnetic interference present at the preamplifier or speaker inputs. The power stage is equipped with a high-end transformer and Low-ESR 105°C capacitors, which are selected to ensure high efficiency.
  • The automatic remote on/off function automatically turns the amplifier on and off using the radio; eliminates the need for a remote source signal when using a speaker. This feature can also be turned off.

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.
Monoblock
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
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. 1 x 380W
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. 1 x 700W
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 - 250 Hz
Harmonic Distortion (THD)Total harmonic distortion indicates how much the input signal is distorted in the amplifier. Distortions appear as overtones contained in the output signal. The proportion of originally absent parts of the signal is given as a percentage, typical values are between 0.001% and 0.5%.

Distortion is measured in their power band. If it exceeds the limit of 0.7% from a certain power, it is the value of the output power of the given amplifier, from which it no longer plays without distortion and from which the distortion usually increases steeply, so that no further increase in power can be counted on. The lower the value, the better.
0.2%
Signal-to-noise ratioThe signal-to-noise ratio means that the output signal always contains noise. The signal-to-noise ratio expresses how much of this noise is compared to the useful signal. The so-called A value is given, which does not take deep and very high frequencies into account. This corresponds to the characteristic of human hearing, which is not so sensitive to deep frequencies, especially below 1 kHz. The higher the value, the better the amplifier is. 100dB
Input sensitivityIn order for the amplifier to perform its function correctly, it requires an input signal of a certain level, which is different for car radios. It is measured in "Volts" (e.g. 2 V, 4 V, etc.) The higher the value at the output of the pre-amplifier, or car radio, the less demands are placed on the power of the amplifier. However, the amplifier must allow this input sensitivity, and for that reason this value is also given for the amplifier. 0.6 - 5 V
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. 25 Hz @ 24 dB/Oct.
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. 80
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. No (optional)
