The Bose Professional PowerSpace P2600A is a two-channel amplifier designed for fixed installations, delivering 600 watts per channel with load-independent outputs that supply full power to both low- and high-impedance systems without the need for bridging. Its AmpLink connection enables a clean digital link to compatible processors, reducing cabling and potential errors while maintaining an efficient signal path. With I-Share outputs engaged, the amplifier can combine the current of both channels to provide double the power, creating a dependable and versatile solution for permanent audio setups.
The front panel of the power amplifier keeps things minimal, with only a power switch, plus a set of LEDs that show operation status, signal level for both channels, and whether muting is active. On the rear panel, each output can be attenuated independently through dedicated level controls, accompanied by potential-free NO and NC contacts that allow all outputs to be muted. Next to the four terminal strips for the outputs, users will find the DIP switches, which offer configuration options such as auto-standby, mute polarity, high- or low-impedance selection, and doubled channel power through the I-Share function, creating a flexible setup that can adapt to different installation needs. A rotary selector further refines control by choosing between analogue inputs or the digital AmpLink connection, ensuring the amplifier integrates smoothly into a wide range of audio environments.
The Bose Professional PowerSpace P2600A provides dependable sound reinforcement for fixed installations, with each channel capable of either low‑impedance (4 or 8 ohms) or constant‑voltage operation (70 V or 100 V), thanks to the DIP switch settings. The overall gain sensitivity can be fine-tuned using the sliders on the far right of the rear panel so the amplifier can be matched precisely to the connected speakers, creating a coherent and well-balanced system. The rear panel also expands flexibility, with analogue inputs on a 6-pin Euroblock and digital AmpLink connections that can pass channels on to additional amplifiers through a digital thru link. An auto-standby function rounds things of by switching the unit off after twenty minutes without an input signal, ensuring efficient and reliable long-term operation.
Bose Professional was established as an independent entity following its separation in 2023 from the Bose Corporation, a company best known for its consumer products. Today, Bose Professional is dedicated to developing sound systems that are straightforward in design, installation, and operation, serving live performance venues as well as commercial and conference environments. From workplaces and places of worship to universities, restaurants, retail stores, hotels, and event spaces of all kinds, Bose Pro systems are deployed across the globe. Decades of expertise have resulted not only in numerous innovations but, above all, in immensely practical and adaptable solutions.
Once all audio and power connections to and from the Bose Professional PowerSpace P2600A are in place, the unit can be switched on. If a high impedance of 70/100V has been selected, all rear-panel output levels should be set to 0dB attenuation with transformer taps adjusted accordingly, so each output receives the required power up to the amplifier's rated capacity. If a low impedance of 4 or 8 ohms is being used, the output levels can instead be set to the desired values. To assist with this adjustment, a pink noise signal can be played through the amplifier, keeping it close to the input sensitivity defined by the corresponding rear panel switch: The level is then fine-tuned until the LIMIT LED on the front panel no longer lights up, ensuring the system is driven cleanly and safely.
