Amps

The Amps category covers commercial amplifier wholesale for dealers and integrators, from a compact 20-watt amplifier to a two-channel DSP amplifier rated at 750 watts per channel, plus an RF distribution amplifier for video systems. It serves background music, multi-zone audio and coax distribution work.

Commercial amplifier wholesale: what this category holds

• BOGC20: a 20-watt amplifier.
• SONDSP-2-150: a two-channel amplifier, 150 W per channel.
• SONDSP-2-750MKII: a two-channel DSP amplifier, 2 x 750 W.
• PICTA36: a distribution amplifier with 36 dB of gain.

Sizing the amplifier to the job

A 20-watt amplifier fits a small paging or background music zone, such as an office, waiting room or shop floor. The two-channel models step up for larger speaker loads, with the 150 W per channel unit for mid-size rooms and the 2 x 750 W DSP amplifier for jobs that need far more headroom. The DSP model lets the installer handle processing in the amplifier itself rather than adding a separate processor. Match the amplifier’s output to the speakers it drives, and leave margin rather than running it at its limit.

Distribution amplifiers for RF video

The 36 dB distribution amplifier belongs on the video side of a project. It makes up signal level lost to cable length and splitters when an antenna, satellite or modulated feed is sent to many outlets. Installers usually place it at the headend, ahead of the splitter network, and pair it with the modulators and coax products elsewhere in the division.

For pricing and availability, dealers ask their Bursma sales representative. Browse the full Audio - Video division, or open a dealer account to order.
