Peak Limiter
Professional speaker systems are designed to be run near full output for extended periods, but under these conditions the drivers need protection from extreme peaks. For protection, the PPA800DSP includes an adjustable limiter to keep the output of the amplifier under control. With adjustable output threshold, attack time, and release time you can set up your system to keep output power at safe levels while preserving most of the original dynamics.
Adjustable Filters
With adjustable high and low pass filters on each output (12 to 48 dB/octave), you have the ability to create a seamless transition between your woofer and tweeter without the need for a power robbing passive crossover network. In addition, you can also create a subsonic filter to protect woofers or even control unruly tweeters with rising top end response.
Parametric EQ
For equalization, the PPA800DSP includes 6 bands of parametric EQ for each output, giving you the ability to minimize specific peaks and dips in the drivers' response and shape the overall response to your taste. In addition, this amplifier has the ability to store a total of 5 custom EQ presets (Labeled: custom, vocal, music, low cut, and high cut) to make it easy to adjust your finished speakers on the fly for use in specific situation.
Adjustable Delay
Professional speaker systems are designed to be run near full output for extended periods, but under these conditions the drivers need protection from extreme peaks. For protection, the PPA800DSP includes an adjustable limiter to keep the output of the amplifier under control. With adjustable output threshold, attack time, and release time you can set up your system to keep output power at safe levels while preserving most of the original dynamics.
Built in 2-channel Mixer with Bluetooth
You'll also enjoy the luxury of having a 2-channel mixer on board, which means one less piece of rig to schlep for many situations. Each channel can accommodate XLR or 1/4" input, line or mic level signal. In addition to this creature comfort, you also get a Bluetooth receiver, so you can play backing tracks, break music, or whatever you need - without wires, adapters, and all the associated hassle - right from your smart phone, tablet, or other Bluetooth-enabled device. The mixer section also includes an XLR line output so you can feed your signal to another powered speaker or subwoofer. You can choose to send your mix or only the signal from channel 2, on down the line. The mixer section is also home for all the LED indicators: power, signal, limiting, and Bluetooth status - everything you need to know, all at a glance.
True Wireless Stereo
The PPA800DSP with Bluetooth 5.0 now supports True Wireless Stereo functionality. This allows you to pair 2 individual PPA800DSP units together to share the signal from your transmitting source. Simply connect your source to the first PPA800DSP, power on the second one, and enable TWS by double pressing the Bluetooth on each of the plate amplifiers. The speakers will automatically delegate the left and right signals to the appropriate speaker making setup quick and easy!
