What's in the box

Many consumer electronics just don't put enough volume out to drive a high-fidelity amplifier to its peak performance. That's where the PA15 comes in. Add the module into your chain, and adjust the output as needed.

Origin Acoustics® Foundation 2 Channel Preamplifier

Gain staging, or gain structuring is the act of setting the gain for each amplification stage (gain stage) in a sound system to achieve a target system volume that minimizes noise and distortion. Said another way, proper gain staging gives your sound system the best signal-to-noise ratio. By attempting to reach the loudest peaks possible (without clipping) at each stage, you can obtain an ideal gain structure, but to do this, you need to consider each part of your system and understand the principles involved.

Gain staging is the art of setting the volume for each stage of amplification to minimize noise and distortion. While this is a fundamental concept for live sound and recording, it does apply to custom integration as well. Ideal gain staging ensures your sound system achieves the best signal to noise ratio. The goal is to maximize the volume at each point in the chain without clipping. EG: If you have an iPad, a PA15, and an A2150 amplifier, you have three ways to control the gain. One primary way to start this process is to max the volume on your input device, set the amplifier trim at roughly 50%, and then adjust the PA15, up to approximately 80%, until you have achieved the max-loudness your client requires.

If you're still unable to produce enough dB, then adjust the trim on the amp. Just be aware that when you raise the volume on the amplifier or the PA-15, you are increasing the noise floor, which is the amount of signal noise created by all the equipment. So, we recommend only using your pre-amplifiers and amplifiers up to around 80% of their max volume. And while we are proud of the low signal to noise ration of our amplifiers, this best practice will also help prevent clipping when your client maxes the system input out.

Origin Acoustics® Foundation Collection 150W Subwoofer Amplifier with regulated power supply and is a class D amplifier

Origin Acoustics® Foundation Collection 150W Subwoofer Amplifier

Great sound and durability are the hallmarks of Origin amplifiers. For your system, regardless of its size or complexity, amplification is the critical tool that needs to perform all the time, every time. These amplifiers resoundingly answer the call.

This amplifier is designed as a standalone, compact amplifier that allows custom home installation to have a powerful high efficiency amplifications while fitting in small places. The SUBA150 comes with a set of standard ears that allow the user to install it in a standard single rack mount. Whether you are looking to power a subwoofer or a tactile transducer, the SUBA150 is guaranteed to deliver.

The SUBA150 is powered by a switching regulated power supply PWM. It delivers a steady and regulated output, delivering a linear amplification to your load. Only through linear amplification do you get the chance to deliver accuracy in amplifications.

The amplifier possesses an efficient switching power supply with stability at 8 and 4 ohms. These amplifiers will deliver clean accurate sound with massive damping factor.

Bowers & Wilkins Black Subwoofer Amplifier

The SA1000 subwoofer amplifier is specifically designed for use with the Custom Theatre CT SW subs. This deceptively compact unit (it’s less than four inches tall and weighs in at 14.3 pounds) produces an astounding 1,000 watts of subwoofer-range power, thanks to its ultra-efficient Class D amplifier design.

The SA1000’s equalisation is custom-tailored to the CT SW subs, delivering deep-bass extension all the way to 16 Hz. And why stop at just one subwoofer? For really serious bass, it’s possible to use the SA1000 to power two subs simultaneously.

Useful features include a three-way EQ switch for selecting each of the compatible subwoofers: the CT SW10, CT SW12 and CT SW15.

James Loudspeaker® Mono 1000W Subwoofer Amplifier

The James M1000 mono subwoofer amplifier is a 2U, high efficiency, class D design producing over 1000W of RMS power into both 4 ohm AND 70 volt loads.  The M1000 is a hybrid design with an internal linear power supply to provide large reserve current to the class D output stage, ensuring powerful dynamics and tight bass response.  A full feature DSP front end can be configured via the 5-button controller and 2-line display on the front panel.  Firmware updates can be uploaded via the USB connector.

On the rear, inputs include left/right high-level binding posts for use with speaker output signals, left/right RCA and Left/right balanced XLR's.  A pair of left/right RCA outputs provide buffered zero gain signals to feed other amplifiers - useful for connecting multiple M1000's in home theater applications or an additional 70V stereo amplifier in 70V landscape applications.

A smoked front panel display hides the LED indicators which actually use printed words for "Power", Standby", "Clip" and "Signal".  The "Clip" indicator show amplifier clipping, or when the limiter is set, show the amplifier is limiting.  The "Signal" indicator flashes on very low input signals to indicate the presence of any input signal - great for troubleshooting.

Within the DSP, the user can save up to 3 complete setups, which can be recalled via the front panel or via IR codes - great for unique setting for movies or music for example.
