About the MPA 152 Plus

The MPA 152 Plus is an ENERGY STAR qualified amplifier with an Extron exclusive, highly efficient, advanced Class D amplifier design. It also features patented CDRS (Class D Ripple Suppression) technology that provides a smooth, clean audio waveform and an improvement in signal fidelity over conventional Class D amplifiers. The high efficiency design generates very little heat and allows the amplifier to be fanless and operated in environments with little or no ventilation.

This stereo integrated mini power amplifier delivers up to 15 watts (rms) per channel stereo or dual mono into a 4 ohm sound system, or 8 watts (rms) per channel into an 8 ohm system. This model features a 90 dB signal-to-noise ratio with 0.1% THD+N, offering exceptional performance for speaker systems requiring compact, economical, audio amplification.

Front panel controls allow easy adjustment of bass and treble volume and input level.

The quarter rack size allows a variety of mounting options. The unit complies with UL 2043 for smoke and heat release for in-the-ceiling installations. It can be installed in the plenum space of the ceiling. Alternatively, the units can be mounted on a tabletop, in a rack, under a desk, or in a projector mounting kit.

MPA 152 Plus Features

30 watts (rms) output power — Delivers up to 15 watts (rms) per channel, stereo or dual mono, into a 4 ohm speaker system or up to 8 watts (rms) per channel into an 8 ohm system. Provides significant audio output for small integration projects with moderate sound system needs.

Improved signal-to-noise ratio — The 90 dB unweighted signal-to-noise ratio allows very low-noise operation, ensures quiet, hiss-free amplification, and maintains audio signal integrity.

ENERGY STAR qualified amplifier — The MPA 152 Plus conserves energy and reduces operating costs.
