Unbelievable Configurability and Remarkable Sound Quality
The Bose PowerMatch PM8500N power amplifier provides you with concert-quality sound, as well as a high level of scalability and configurability, making it ideal for fixed installation sound reinforcement rigs. Bose's proprietary QuadBridge technology gives you four channels that can be configured in either Mono, V-Bridge, I-Share, or Quad mode, allowing the PowerMatch PM8500N's total available power to be allocated to one or more output channels. And thanks to its ultra-efficient power management, the Bose PowerMatch PM8500N power amplifier delivers consistent, reliable performance ideally-suited for your house of worship, retail store, or conference center. To top it off, the Bose PowerMatch PM8500N power amplifier adds Ethernet connectivity for network control and monitoring of multiple N-version amplifiers. Sweetwater has designed countless live sound rigs over the past three decades. We'd love to help you with yours!
QuadBridge technology gives you unbelievable configurability
Bose's proprietary QuadBridge technology gives you eight channels that can be configured in either Mono, V-Bridge, I-Share, or Quad mode, allowing the PowerMatch PM8500N power amplifier's total available power to be allocated to one or more output channels. V-Bridge and Quad modes can drive either low impedance or 70/100V loads.
ControlSpace Designer software provides access to additional features
You can use Bose's ControlSpace Designer software to access the PowerMatch PM8500N power amplifier's additional features, such as parametric EQ stages, load sweep of each output channel, and auto standby. In fact, the PowerMatch PM8500N can be fully configured using ControlSpace Designer software via the onboard front panel USB connection, or the rear panel Ethernet connection. ControlSpace Designer is also used to integrate the PowerMatch PM8500N into larger control and monitoring systems comprised of Bose ESP processors and CC control centers.
Dual voltage and current feedback loop delivers remarkable sound quality
By combining proprietary design and Class D efficiency with a unique current and voltage feedback loop circuit, the Bose PowerMatch PM8500N power amplifier continuously monitors and controls both the current and voltage delivered to the loudspeaker load. What this means for you is wider dynamic range, greater frequency response, and extremely low distortion. In short — the PowerMatch PM8500N sounds phenomenal!
