How to shop for Commercial Amplifiers
Commercial amplifiers drive the speakers in a commercial A/V system — sometimes called a 70-volt speaker system — which works differently from traditional home theater or stereo setups. They come in a range of sizes to fit in small or big spaces.
Smaller commercial amps can be used to power music in a single room or drive a sound-masking system. Larger amplifiers efficiently distribute power to multiple speakers in different listening zones. They are highly configurable for a wide range of source and speaker setups, and use DSP (digital signal processing) to fine-tune sound.
