Product Description
The Bose
®
PowerShare
TM
PS602, PS602P, and PS604 adaptable amplifiers feature smart loud-
speaker processing and patented adjustable wattage distribution per channel, perfect for multi-zone
installations with varying power needs. PowerShare’s multi-channel distribution design allows the
amplifier to use its total 600 Watts efficiently by delivering only the required wattage needed per
zone, in low-impedance, high-impedance, or hybrid installations. Each channel can deliver up to 600
Watts regardless of load into 4 ohms, 8 ohms, 70 Vrms, or 100 Vrms.
Many applications will only require configuration from the rear panel. For applications that require
more customization, access the advanced digital loudspeaker processing features using the free
web-downloadable PowerShare
TM
Editor Software. The PowerShare Editor Software accesses all
of the FreeSpace
®
, Panaray
®
, and RoomMatch
®
Utility loudspeaker EQs, as well as room EQ,
standard mixing, band pass filtering, Vpeak and Vrms limiters, delay, mute polarity inversion, and
output phase inversion. This feature eliminates the need for an additional loudspeaker processor in
most applications.
The PS602 and PS604 amplifiers also support gangable CC-1 ControlCenter Zone Controllers for
remote volume control using common CAT-5 cables.
Product Features:
PowerShare Amplifier Series
Three 1U amplifier models provide two or four channel 600 Watt options to satisfy the needs of
almost any audio installation. Models include a two-channel installed amplifier, a portable two-
channel amplifier featuring XLR inputs and Speakon
®
outputs, and a four-channel installed amplifier.
PowerShare Technology
Patented PowerShare technology allows 600 Watts of power to be shared asymmetrically across
multiple outputs, in low-impedence, high-impedence, or hybrid situations - perfect for multi-zone
installations with varying power needs.
Dual Feedback Loop System
Proprietary design combines Class-D efficiency with a dual current and voltage feedback loop circuit
that continuously monitors and controls both the curent and voltage delivered to the loudspeaker
load. This combination allows the amplifier to consistently deliver the widest possible dynamic
range, frequency response, and lowest possible distortion, independent of power level and load
impedence, while continuously protecting both the amplifier and connected loudspeakers from
overload conditions.
Low- and High-Impedance Applications
Each channel can be independently configured for low-impedence (4-8 ohms) or high-impedance
(70/100 V) applications. Each channel can deliver up to full amplifier power regardless of load.
Integrated Loudspeaker Processing and the PowerShare Editor Software
The simplified rear panel provides access to ten pre-loaded loudspeaker EQs optimized for use with
the following Bose loudspeakers: FreeSpace
®
DS 16, DS 40, DS 100, FS3B, Panaray
®
402 and 802
Series IV, MA12EX, RoomMatch
®
Utility RMU105 and RMU108, as well as a flat setting for FS3
systems. For advanced customization, the PowerShare Editor Software accesses all of the
FreeSpace, Panaray, and RoomMatch Utility loudspeaker EQs, as well as room EQ, standard
mixing, band pass filtering, Vpeak Vrms limiters, delay, mute polarity inversion, and output phase
inversion. These added features eliminate the need for an additional loudspeaker processor in many
applications.
