Product Overview

The Sonance PowerZone Connect 508 is a compact, 1RU, 8-channel amplifier designed for smaller commercial zones that still need built-in DSP and hybrid impedance flexibility. It gives integrators an entry point into the PowerZone Connect line for projects that do not require the higher power ceilings of the 1008 or 6008 models. Its 1RU footprint makes it a practical choice for equipment racks with limited depth or height.

Product Description

The PowerZone Connect 508 delivers up to 60W per channel across 8 channels at 4 or 8 ohms, or can be reconfigured for 4 channels at 125W in 70V/100V high-impedance mode, with power sharing capability up to 2x250W between channels. This Sonance amplifier includes full-matrix DSP through the built-in PowerZone Control web application, giving integrators the same configuration workflow used across the entire PowerZone Connect family. S/PDIF digital input and output support signal distribution in multi-amplifier racks, and configurable GPIO allows integration with wall controllers or automation systems. Pascal UMAC Class-D amplification keeps the 508 ErP and ENERGY STAR compliant while fitting into a single rack unit. It pairs naturally with in-ceiling speakers in smaller commercial spaces where a full 2U amplifier would be more capacity than the zone requires. A 5-year warranty covers the unit.
