PA300 Measurement Power Amplifier

PA300 is the measurement power amplifier developed by BSWA for drive mid-power sound source, such as omni sound source, low frequency or mid-high frequency volume source and plane sound source, during building and acoustic field measurements.

PA300 based on class-D amplifier technology, thus achieving a very small size and lightweight with a large output power, making it very suitable for field testing of building acoustic. The peak output power is up to 295W with excellent THD+N and dynamic range.

All connectors, controllers and indicators are located on the front panel. The power amplifier can therefore be placed on the ground or in any other field for easy access.
