Designed for demanding commercial and professional audio applications, the CAD Astatic PX5002 delivers efficient, reliable power in a compact 1-RU rackmount design. Ideal for installed sound systems, portable PA rigs, houses of worship, educational facilities, and corporate AV environments, this professional 2-channel Class-D amplifier combines high output capability with a lightweight switch-mode power supply for dependable performance and reduced rack heat. Soft-start circuitry minimizes inrush current, making the PX5002 well suited for long-term, mission-critical operation.
Flexible System Configuration
The PX5002 adapts easily to a wide range of sound reinforcement systems with selectable Stereo, Mono (Parallel), and Bridge operating modes. Balanced XLR inputs and loop-through XLR outputs simplify system expansion through convenient daisy-chaining, while three SpeakON speaker outputs support channel A, channel B, and bridged speaker connections. Selectable input sensitivity settings allow the amplifier to integrate seamlessly with a variety of audio sources and system designs.
Output power:
- 8 ohm: 2x 300W
- 4 ohm: 2x 500W
- 4 ohm Bridge: 1x 1000W
Built for Clean, Protected Performance
Engineered to deliver consistent, controlled audio, the PX5002 features integrated peak limiting to help prevent clipping and protect connected loudspeakers. A switchable 75 Hz low-cut filter with a 24 dB-per-octave slope reduces unnecessary low-frequency energy for added speaker protection. Intelligent temperature-controlled fan cooling and comprehensive protection circuits, including DC fault, over-temperature, overload, and short-circuit protection, help ensure dependable operation under demanding conditions. A ground-lift switch further improves installation flexibility by reducing hum caused by ground loops.
