Blaze Audio announced the PowerZone Connect Series of power amplifiers. They include four models — the PowerZone Connect 122, PowerZone Connect 252, PowerZone Connect 254 and PowerZone Connect 504. Blaze says all are considered “smart amplifiers” that offer ultra-compact, half rack, 1RU form factors, can drive both conventional low impedance (4Ω to 16Ω) loudspeakers and constant voltage (70V/100V) transformer coupled loudspeakers. And, they include a browser-based configuration system as well as Blaze Audio’s Powershare technology that delivers flexible power output across output channels.

The entire PowerZone Connect series includes a full matrix DSP design offering system configuration and control via Blaze Audio’s PowerZone Control browser-based web app. PowerZone Control is an intuitive application that can be used to configure everything from one’s phone, tablet, or PC by connecting through the amplifier’s built-in Wi-Fi or direct via the amplifier’s network port. Offering tremendous value, this application facilitates control of input sources and output channels, as well as the setup of audio zones, EQ, routing, and more — regardless of whether the integrator is on- or off-site.

  • PowerZone Connect 122: With four analog inputs and one stereo digital input, the PowerZone Connect 122 has flexible output options:  2 x 60W in Lo-Z mode and 1 x 125W in Hi-Z mode. Automatic power sharing technology enables the total available power to be shared proportionately between the outputs.
  • PowerZone Connect 252: Featuring four analog inputs and one stereo digital input, the PowerZone Connect 252 offers flexible output options:  2 x 125W in Lo-Z mode and 1 x 250W in Hi-Z mode. The amplifier’s automatic power sharing technology enables the total available power to be shared proportionately between the outputs.
  • PowerZone Connect 254: With its four analog inputs and one stereo digital input, the PowerZone Connect 254 provides flexible output options: 4 x 60W in Lo-Z mode and 2 x 125W in Hi-Z mode. Automatic power sharing technology enables the amplifier’s total available power to be shared proportionately between the outputs.
  • PowerZone Connect 504: With its four analog inputs and one stereo digital input, the PowerZone Connect 504 has flexible output options: 4 x 125W in Lo-Z mode and 2 x 250W in Hi-Z mode. The amplifier’s automatic power sharing technology enables the amplifier’s total available power to be shared proportionately between the outputs.

The PowerZone Connect Series amplifiers are aimed at systems ins bars, cafes, restaurants, retail stores, hotels, education sites, Houses of Worship, and normal ProAV applications and offer a GPIO interface that enables the addition of any standard remote control.
