Product Description
Blaze Audio PowerZone 252 Compact 2-Input Configurable 250W Installation Amplifier
Overview
Mounting hardware is NOT included and must be purchased separately.
Offering unparalleled flexibility and versatility in a compact design, PowerZone amplifiers are configurable to drive Lo or Hi-Z loads per channel to fit specific speaker requirements. Power-sharing technology automatically shares the total available power across channel pairs, ensuring versatile power output for each installation. Rear Panel mounted DIP switches allow you to configure on-site with GPIO connectors for external controllers. PowerZone amps feature ultra-reliable Pascal UMAC™ Class-D technology, offering class-leading energy efficiency and long-term low cost of ownership. And they carry a 5-year warranty, so you can trust their reliability and performance. With 250 watts of pure Class-D power, an ultra-compact form factor, and optional rack ears. extension plates and full rack supports, PowerZone 252 installation is a breeze, and it fits in places where other products can't to deliver all the power you need.
Features
- All channels deliver high & low impedance loads – meaning one amplifier can replace two, and saves you costs and installation time.
- Total power is automatically shared across the output channels – use one PowerZone™ amp to utilize the power where you need it (*modelspecific feature).
- Ultra-compact form factor – means the ½ rack PowerZone™ are so small and neat they can be installed in spaces where other brands cannot.
- Consolidate products and brands – save the hassle of sourcing multiple amplifiers when PowerZone™ can be used on many different install sites.
- Easy to configure DIP Switches - allow you to set up on-site as you need and have a front panel control lock to stop unwanted changes to your setup.
- GPIO interface – enables adding a standard remote control (potentiometer) to the system.
- Class-leading energy efficiency – means day-to-day energy saving and long-term low cost of ownership.
- Pascal’s UMAC™ Class-D amplifier technology – with market-proven, ultra-reliable U-PRO amp modules
- PowerZone™ quality and reliability are backed up with a 5-year warranty.
