A professional integrated 100 Volt amplifier that can operate in one stereo zone, two individual zones or two volume-linked zones.

For a long time, installers worldwide have been looking for a professional integrated amplifier for use in commercial environments, boardrooms or small businesses. An affordable but yet professional unit, designed for 24/7 operation.

Their search arises from the fact that many small business owners often frown upon professional sound systems.
