It is intended for mid-sized commercial zones that need more headroom than an entry-level amplifier but do not require a full 2U chassis. Hybrid Lo-Z\/Hi-Z channel operation lets integrators standardize on a single amplifier across mixed speaker types.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach of the 8 channels on the PowerZone Connect 1008 delivers 125W at 4 or 8 ohms, or the unit can be reconfigured to 4 channels at 250W for 70V\/100V distributed speaker runs, all within a single rack unit chassis. This \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/creationnetworks.net\/collections\/sonance\"\u003eSonance\u003c\/a\u003e amplifier uses the same PowerZone Control web application found across the Connect family, giving full-matrix DSP configuration, EQ, and routing without a separate software installation. S\/PDIF digital input and output support passthrough to additional amplifiers, and configurable GPIO allows wall controller or automation system integration. Pascal UMAC Class-D amplification keeps the 1008 ErP and ENERGY STAR compliant while delivering consistent output in a compact footprint.
