QUANTUM AUDIO QAE 500.4-CHANNEL AMPLIFIER
šĀ Quantum Audio 4 Channel AmplifierĀ ā Description & Specs
šµ Product Description
TheĀ Quantum Audio 4-Channel AmplifierĀ is aĀ car audio power amplifierĀ designed to boost the output of your vehicleās speakers ā delivering louder, cleaner, and more detailed sound compared to a factory head unit alone. Itās ideal for drivingĀ four full-range speakersĀ (front and rear) or used in aĀ bridged configurationĀ to power a subwoofer while still driving two other channels. Built withĀ Class A/B circuitryĀ and high-efficiency MOSFET technology, this amp strikes a balance between power delivery, efficiency, and reliability ā making it a good choice for everyday listening, enhanced sound builds, or modest SPL systems.
FeaturingĀ adjustable crossovers, the amplifier allows you to tailor frequency output for your speakers or subs, andĀ bridgeable channelsĀ give you extra flexibility for system design. Whether youāre powering mids, highs, or mids and subs together, this amp brings more punch and control to your audio.
