Power requirements
The system controller features a built-in 240 W power amplifier, making it possible to drive up
to 40 loudspeakers with a power handling capacity of 6 W each. This is sufficient for a
medium-sized high school with 24 classrooms, 4 toilets/changing rooms, a staff meeting room
and 2 offices, each requiring a single loudspeaker. The canteen, assembly hall, playing fields
and corridors typically require more loudspeakers per zone. An additional Plena Power
Amplifier is used as a spare amplifier.
