Overview & Specifications
Versatile 4-Channel Class AB Amplifier With 520W Maximum Power & Variable High-Pass Filter!
Bridgeable Design with Automatic Signal Sensing & Multiple Configuration Options The Pioneer GM-A4704 delivers flexible and powerful audio amplification for comprehensive system configurations. This 4-channel Class AB amplifier produces 40W RMS x 4 at 4Ω or can be bridged to deliver 130W RMS x 2 at 4Ω for component speakers or subwoofer applications. The versatile design allows operation in 4-channel, 3-channel, or 2-channel modes, perfect for powering front and rear speakers or combining channels for subwoofer use.
The automatic signal sensing technology automatically selects between RCA or speaker-level inputs and powers on in sync with your receiver. Variable high-pass filter (40Hz-500Hz) on channels A provides precise frequency control, while channels B feature selectable 80Hz high-pass or low-pass filters. The high-volt input level control accommodates gain adjustment from 0.3V to 6.5V (RCA) or 3.0V to 26V (speaker level). With compact dimensions and efficient heat dissipation through the one-body heat sink design, the GM-A4704 offers professional-grade performance for building complete car audio systems.
