DBX PS6 PMC Power Supply - DBXPS6

Product Overview

The DBX PS6 PMC power supply provides road-worthy AC power for up to six dbx PMC16 personal monitor controllers from a single unit, making it the essential infrastructure component for any multi-performer monitoring deployment. It connects to each PMC16 via a standard 12-volt DC center-negative cable, and the included power cables are 20 feet in length, providing practical reach across a stage without requiring extension cables at the performer position. Recommended for portable, touring, and studio installations, the PS6 eliminates the need for individual wall adapters at each PMC16 station.

Product Description

When deploying multiple dbx PMC16 personal monitor controllers on a stage or in a broadcast studio, managing individual power supplies at each performer position quickly becomes impractical. The DBX PS6 centralizes the AC power distribution for up to six PMC16 units, allowing the power supply to be positioned at the stage rack or equipment table while 20-foot DC cables reach each performer position.

The PS6 connects to the PMC16 via a standard 12-volt DC center-negative cable, the same connector format used by many common power adapters, which simplifies cable inventory management for touring audio companies. Its road-worthy construction is appropriate for the physical demands of live touring environments where rack equipment is subjected to regular transport and setup cycles. For house of worship, auditorium, and permanent installation environments, the PS6 simplifies infrastructure by reducing the number of AC outlets and power adapters required in a monitoring system.

A single PS6 in a rack drawer or under-stage equipment space can power an entire band's worth of PMC16 units. The PS6 is available at Creation Networks and is typically purchased alongside the PMC16 for complete personal monitoring system deployments at venues, houses of worship, and touring productions.
