    Simplified sequencing for high-current audio systems.

    The CQ 3000 provides robust, single-circuit power control for the high-current, low-frequency amplifiers that form the foundation of modern audio systems. Engineered for simplicity and reliability, it features a single 30A NEMA L5-30R twist-lock receptacle to ensure a secure connection for demanding loads. A heavy-duty internal relay and a 30A thermal circuit breaker protect connected equipment during startup and operation, providing a dependable power-on sequence every time.

    Designed for plug-and-play operation, the CQ 3000 can function as a standalone sequencer or integrate seamlessly into a larger CQ series system. Its compact chassis mounts easily behind a rack or on any surface, and it can be placed anywhere in a sequence chain to provide the final, high-current power-on event. This modular approach allows integrators to build scalable, cost-effective sequencing systems tailored to any installation.
