The idea behind the Vortex Series was to built a new power amp that uses a switched-mode power supply, ensures optimum ventilation and can be produced in compliance with state-of-the art technical standards.
Yet output power had to be at least as high as that produced by CAMCO´s “classic” power amps, while the dimensions and weight had to be reduced. With the Vortex Series this idea has become reality: Vortex is a high power amplifier featuring exceptionally high efficiency, enormous power, a mere 2 units in height and the use of micro-controllers to digitally control and monitor all functions and thus ensure first-class audio quality.
For the Vortex Series CAMCO engineers have developed a variety of innovative features: power transistor control with emergency shutdown in case of extreme malfunctions (prevents the amp from being destroyed), reliable overvoltage protection up to 400V, thermal protective circuitry for the transistors, hum free operation in case of extreme undervoltage (instead of sound-deteriorating limiters).
