Powersoft Introduces New Amplifier Platform for Touring Market

March 10 2025, 00:45
A few days past announcing the ultra-compact Nota PoE amplifier, its smallest product ever, and from the K-Array acquisition announcement, Powersoft announced Unica T, a new touring amplifier platform, designed for massive scale, power, and reliability, while optimizing space and ensuring seamless performance for touring professionals. The Italian manufacturer intends to expand its Class-D solutions on the market that originally projected the Powersoft brand globally.

As Powersoft announced, the new Unica T platform signals the launch of a new touring-focused amplifier series designed to meet the requirements of the most demanding live sound applications. The first new Powersoft amplifier platform for the touring market since the launch of the T Series in 2019, the new Unica T platform expands the Italian company’s successful Unica family of amplifiers, delivering exceptional power density (up to 16K), efficiency, and reliability in a compact 1RU form factor for seamless operation in even the most challenging touring environments.

"Unica T was developed to optimize the business operations of rental companies and live sound professionals, and offers significant savings in space, time, and costs. By incorporating an industry-leading power-to-size ratio, high channel count, and robust power-sharing capabilities, this platform enhances efficiency while reducing logistical and operational burdens," the company states in the announcement.

Inheriting the basic design of the Unica series, the most advanced amplifier platform in Powersoft's 28-year history, featuring next-generation, cloud-based, high power density technology, all in one easily upgradable and future-proof package, the new Unica T platform evolves with a front-panel interface tailored specifically for live applications. While amplifiers for fixed installation require remote configuration, control, and monitoring, live performance and touring applications benefit from an intuitive and immediate control experience, enabling quick and precise adjustments in high-pressure environments.

Powersoft's Unica T leverages the Unica amplifier technology that ensures reliability and future-proof performance, while adding innovative design elements that are essential on systems subjected to intensive use and transportation. These elements include a patent-pending solid fastening system for Phoenix connectors, which enhances resistance to mechanical vibrations, and improved galvanic insulation for analog inputs, mitigating infrastructure limitations and preventing accidental signal damage. Additionally, the unit’s intelligent ventilation system allows for compact rack installation while maintaining optimal thermal performance.

Designed for seamless integration and ease of use, Unica T amplifiers support a wide range of connectivity options, including configurable GPIOs and networked audio and control. Its Easy Swap functionality, enabled by an automatic USB backup system, simplifies maintenance and minimizes downtime, allowing for quick replacement without the need for complex reconfiguration.

“With Unica T, we set out to solve the demands of the most challenging live applications,” says Claudio Lastrucci, Powersoft’s R&D director. "With its unique combination of high output power, rugged reliability, and intelligent design, Unica T sets a new benchmark for touring amplifiers. Whether deployed in large-scale touring systems or high-end live productions, it offers an unparalleled blend of performance, efficiency, and ease of operation, making it an essential tool for today’s most demanding audio professionals. From its compact yet powerful design, every detail is designed to simplify setup, reduce costs, and keep the show running seamlessly."
