Yamaha PX8 Power Amplifier (1050W x 2 at 4 Ohms)

The Yamaha PX8 Power Amplifier combines intelligent processing with high output power to meet the requirements of a vast range of sound reinforcement environments.

Powerful, Efficient Design

The PX8 is driven by a newly-developed Class-D amplifier engine that concentrates all the necessary functions into a single custom LSI chip and uses PLL technology to control transfer characteristics in real-time, achieving impressive sound quality and power. This new single-chip architecture offers higher output and improved performance in a more lightweight, yet reliable design. A combination of cutting-edge technology and an exhaustive component selection process make this amplifier a supremely efficient amplifier with low noise, reliable protection features, and above all, outstanding sound quality.

DSP For Audio Processing, Input Routing, And Output Routing

Amp Mode allows the user to configure the system without difficulty by selecting the input routing and output routing. A total of 15 types of patterns can be selected.

Versatile

The PX8 offers a versatile range of different power output capabilities suitable for a wide variety of sound reinforcement applications.

Sophisticated Signal Processing

The PX8 come with flexible onboard crossover, filters, delay, limiter, and PEQ (fixed preset) functions as standard, allowing quick and easy system setup via the LCD display, without the need for any additional outboard gear. All models also feature Yamaha’s intelligent D-CONTOUR multi-band dynamic processing, allowing users to achieve consistent clarity and high-quality sound for either front-of-house or monitor configurations.

Smart Configuration Wizard

The Config Wizard allows users to save even more time during system setup by assigning optimized speaker settings that match your system configuration– simply select the appropriate filter and crossover for each speaker, and Config Wizard will do the rest.

Flexible Connectivity, Durable Construction

Equipped with both XLR and TRS inputs, and binding post, SpeakON, and phone outputs, the PX8 offers the flexibility needed for a variety of setups and environments, and the durability to stand up to extended road use thanks to the sturdy chassis and carrying handle design.

Utilities for Safe and Secure Operation

The PX8 makes it fast and easy to configure panel settings, monitor amplifier status, and transfer data via USB, and also features a panel locking function to keep your settings safe. Users can even export information such as internal devices and log data to USB for rapid troubleshooting should difficulties arise.
