PowerShareX PSX1204D Adaptable Power Amplifier
PowerShareX PSX1204D is a four-channel, 1200-watt smart amplifier designed for use with Bose Professional installed sound systems. Onboard DSP gives you instant access to optimized loudspeaker presets via ControlSpace Designer software with easy ecosystem integration across Bose Professional processors, loudspeakers, and controllers. Design, configuration, installation, and operation become simpler — so you can get the job done and move on to the next.
Features
Power-sharing technology
-
Dynamically allocates power evenly or asymmetrically across outputs without having to bridge channels or lose channel count when powering Bose Professional loudspeakers.
Bose Professional certified presets and ControlSpace Designer integration
- Delivers the best performance, loudspeaker protection, and visibility of the entire Bose Professional system from a single UI for easy design, configuration, control, and monitoring.
Proven Powersoft reliability
- Ensures the systems operate every day, mitigating non-billable service calls.
Flexible outputs
- Capable of handling either low-impedance (2, 4, 8Ω) or high-impedance (70, 100V) loudspeaker loads.
Built-in Dante audio
- Supports up to 4 digital input channels from a Dante network eliminating the requirement of ordering and installing an accessory network card.
4 analog inputs
- Provide line-level source connections.
PowerShare Design Tool
- A downloadable design tool that allows system designers the ability to choose their PowerShare amp and simulate the power-sharing capability that, in some cases, can lead to a lower-power model requirement and cost savings.
GPIO connections
- Provide a remote level, on/off, and alarm triggers.
Network monitoring
- Provides real-time system performance data, minimizing downtime, guesswork, and unnecessary service calls.
Rack-friendly 1RU design
- That is only 358 mm (14.1 in) deep eliminating the need for oversized racks.
Universal switch mode power supply with power factor correction
Applications
- Designed for commercial installations
- Houses of worship
- Performing arts
- Corporate
- Hotels
- Retail / Restaurants
- Education
- Government
- Sports & Fitness
