Fonestar MAX-240Z

Fonestar MAX-240Z - PA amplifier with Bluetooth®, USB/FM player and zone selector for speakers. Designed by Fonestar, it combines the efficiency of a modern class D amplifier with reliability and excellent performance. It ensures uniform sound coverage in large spaces, with independent volume control for each zone. It allows announcements via the zone microphone, with priority and automatic attenuation of auxiliary inputs (24V).

It features outputs for speakers on a 100 V line and a low impedance output for speakers without a transformer. Combo and euroblock connectors ensure a secure and durable connection. Easy to use, it can be placed on a desk or mounted in a rack. Ideal for PA systems and background music in commercial spaces, educational institutions, exhibitions, restaurants, and more.
