Model AMPIC5 / AMPIC6

(UL Listed)

AMPIC5 / AMPIC6 carton includes the following items:

1.One (1) each AMPIC5 or AMPIC6

2.One (1) each UL Listed Power Supply

( IC5/IC6, Tile Bridge, Backcan and Volume Controls are Optional – Sold Separately)

Introduction:

The AMPIC5/AMPIC6 is designed to provide an OWI 5.25” (IC5) or 6.5” (IC6) speaker that is self powered allowing line input audio that is either balanced or unbalanced to provide the input signal. The power amplifier provides up to 25 watts of power. It has enough power to allow up to a total of four non-amplified speakers to be powered by one power amplifier installed on one of the four non-amplified speakers. This would then allow each speaker to have approximately 5 watts of power. Five watts would be enough power for background music, voice paging or many voice applications. The AMPIC5/AMPIC6 can also be daisy chained up to a maximum of 20 connected amplified speakers.
