RCF HDL6a Power Consumption
« on: February 24, 2019, 08:29:03 PM »

Does anyone have real world HDL6A power consumption info?  I've read the specs, but they seem to represent an unreasonable extreme. How many boxes do you typically run on a circuit?

What makes you think RCF's specification is extreme?  My experience has been they're pretty much spot on, when flogging their rigs.

What's your anticipated duty cycle?

We've put 6 x HDL 10A cabinets on a single 20amp circuit.  it was plenty loud.  Though, the HDL 10A cabinets were high-passed at 120hz.  We kept the bass out of the cabinets. 

Meant to add... I can run 6 X NXL-23A cabinets (our system) on 1 x 20amp circuit (high-passed at 120hz also).  There's been no power issues.

I used 6 at an event last week and I'm almost sure they were on the same circuit.  I did 3 a side and the venue said the outlets were on separate circuits but I'm not convinced they were because one was labeled and the other wasn't yet they were right by each other.  One person said they were separate one said they weren't.  We have 6 here at work as well so we do plan to test it to see just so we know because we have a big event coming up in April and we are unsure of how much power we will have out there.
