Bose Professional PowerShare PS404D Adaptive Power Amplifier

Bose Professional PowerShare PS404D Adaptive Power Amplifier

Bose Professional PowerShare PS404D is a power amplifier designed for installed commercial audio systems. It enables distributed and low-impedance amplification for system designers and integrators, supporting background and foreground audio workflows. This makes it ideal for fixed installations where flexible channel power allocation is required.

The amplifier uses PowerShare technology to distribute total available output power dynamically across all channels. It supports both low-impedance and 70V or 100V distributed systems with onboard DSP and network control. Integrated Dante audio networking allows digital audio transport and system integration.

The design supports installations that require centralized amplification with software-based configuration and monitoring. It is suited for venues that need scalable power distribution and system control across multiple zones. The platform allows integration with compatible control and DSP software for predictable system operation.

Key Features

• PowerShare technology: Distributes total available output power dynamically across all channels
• Load-independent outputs: Configurable per channel for low-impedance or 70V and 100V distributed systems
• Integrated Dante networking: Supports digital audio transport over standard Ethernet networks
• Onboard DSP: Includes signal processing for system configuration and loudspeaker management
• Network control support: Enables configuration and monitoring through ControlSpace Designer software
• Auto-standby operation: Reduces power consumption when the amplifier is not in active use
