BOSE POWERMATCH PM8500 2000W Mixer Amplifier

The BOSE's POWERMATCH PM8500 programmable professional power amplifier delivers concert-quality sound. The PM8500 has several channel and power options, as well as an integrated audio DSP, a front panel interface, and a USB port. Versions with Ethernet support network configuration, control, and monitoring. Optional digital accessory cards can be plugged into an expansion slot. PowerMatch amplifiers combine a variety of Bose technologies to provide an unrivalled mix of performance, efficiency, and ease of installation—all in a dependable, unique design. The PM8500 comes in two models, each with a USB port for single-unit setup and control with Bose ControlSpace® V3.0 or higher software.

• QuadBridge™ Technology allows each 4-channel loudspeaker block to be configured as Mono, V-Bridge, IShare or Quad modes, allowing the total available power of the amplifier block to be allocated to one or more output channels.
• Bose® ControlSpace® Designer™ software – PowerMatch amplifiers can be fully configured using ControlSpace Designer software via the onboard front panel USB connection, or the rear panel Ethernet connection (network models only).
• Using ControlSpace Designer software you can access additional features including: Parametric EQ stages, load sweep of each output channel and auto standby. 
• Auto-Standby/Auto-Wake function allowing the system to consume less power.
• Dual voltage and current feedback loop circuit that continuously monitors and controls both the current and voltage delivered to the loudspeaker load. Independent of power level and load impedance, the amplifier consistently delivers the widest possible dynamic range, frequency response and lowest possible distortion.
• PeakBank™ power supply enables higher power density while allowing the reuse of energy from reactive loads that is normally wasted in conventional Class-D designs.
• This highly efficient amplifier design delivers sustainable and repeatable low frequency response.
• Fast-tracking power factor correction (PFC) provides superior transient response and functions at peak burst power much longer than conventional Class-D amplifier designs to satisfy the requirements of even the most demanding program material.
