Amplifiers, Mixers and Media Players for Professional Audio Systems

Amplifiers, mixers and media players form the heart of a professional audio system. They allow you to connect audio sources, balance microphones and instruments, process signals, play recorded music and provide the power required to drive passive speakers.

At Prebeat, you will find audio equipment for mobile DJs, live bands, musicians, theatres, schools, houses of worship, hospitality venues and event production. The range covers compact solutions for straightforward setups alongside professional equipment for larger PA systems and permanent installations.

Products are available from established audio manufacturers including Citronic, Studiomaster, Q-Audio, FBT, NewHank, DAP Audio, W Audio and Zenith.

Power Amplifiers for Passive Speakers

Power amplifiers take a line-level audio signal from a mixer or processor and provide the output needed to drive passive loudspeakers.

The range includes two-channel and multi-channel amplifiers for mobile PA systems, live venues and fixed installations. Depending on the model, features may include bridge mode, selectable input sensitivity, integrated limiters, high-pass filters, DSP processing and network control.

When choosing a power amplifier, consider:

  • The continuous power rating of the speakers
  • The impedance presented to each amplifier channel
  • The number of speaker cabinets being connected
  • Whether separate amplifier channels are needed for different areas
  • Headroom for musical peaks
  • Cooling, rack space and installation requirements
  • The type of input and speaker connections required

Amplifier and speaker ratings must be matched carefully. Always check the manufacturer’s specifications for the permitted impedance and recommended amplifier power before connecting passive speakers.

PA Mixers for Live Sound

PA mixers provide central control over microphones, instruments and playback equipment. They are used for live music, presentations, conferences, theatre productions, schools, houses of worship and event sound systems.

Compact analogue mixers provide a practical option for smaller systems where straightforward hands-on control is required. Larger analogue and digital mixers offer more input channels, auxiliary mixes, groups, routing options and processing for complex productions.

Features vary between models but may include:

  • Microphone and line inputs
  • Phantom power for compatible condenser microphones
  • Channel equalisation
  • Auxiliary outputs for stage monitors
  • Built-in effects
  • Compressors and signal processing
  • USB audio recording and playback
  • Bluetooth audio streaming
  • Digital recall and remote control
  • Main, subgroup and matrix outputs

Before choosing a mixer, count every microphone, instrument and playback source that will be connected. It is sensible to allow some spare inputs for future expansion.

DJ Mixers

DJ mixers are designed for blending music sources and controlling transitions during a performance. They are suitable for mobile DJs, clubs, bars, parties and entertainment venues.

The number of channels determines how many players, turntables or other sources can be connected at once. Features such as channel EQ, cue monitoring, microphone inputs and a crossfader provide the essential controls needed for live mixing.

Depending on the mixer, additional facilities may include phono inputs, USB connectivity, built-in effects, balanced outputs and rack-mountable construction. Check that the selected model has the correct inputs for your players or turntables and suitable outputs for the rest of your PA system.

Powered Mixers

Powered mixers combine a PA mixer and power amplifier in one unit. This reduces the number of separate components required and can make a portable sound system quicker to transport, connect and operate.

They are particularly useful for bands, schools, community halls, houses of worship and presentation systems using passive speakers. Available models range from compact mixer amplifiers to more powerful units with multiple microphone channels, effects, media playback and wireless microphone facilities.

When comparing powered mixers, check both the number of inputs and the amplifier output at the intended speaker impedance. The powered speaker outputs should only be connected to compatible passive speakers.

Media Players and Turntables

Our media players provide dependable playback for entertainment venues, fitness studios, hospitality businesses, installations and mobile events.

Depending on the model, playback options may include USB drives, SD cards, CDs, Bluetooth devices and radio. Rack-mountable players are useful for permanent audio systems, while combined media players can reduce the number of separate playback devices required.

For vinyl playback and traditional DJ setups, explore our turntables and related equipment. When selecting turntable equipment, check cartridge compatibility, output type and whether a phono preamplifier is built in or required separately.

Signal Processors and Speaker Management

Signal processors allow an audio system to be configured, protected and optimised for its intended application.

The range includes active crossovers, loudspeaker management processors, equalisation equipment, audio receivers, interfaces and routing devices. Professional speaker processors may provide crossover filters, output delay, limiters, equalisation and stored presets.

These controls are particularly useful when a system includes separate subwoofers and full-range speakers, multiple amplifier channels or loudspeakers positioned at different distances from the audience.

A correctly configured limiter can help protect speakers from excessive signal levels, while digital delay allows sound from different speaker positions to reach the audience at the correct time. Processor settings should be based on the requirements of the connected speakers and amplifiers.

DI Boxes for Instruments and Audio Sources

DI boxes help connect instruments and other unbalanced audio sources to professional balanced microphone inputs.

They are commonly used with electric guitars, bass guitars, keyboards, laptops and media equipment. Converting the signal to a balanced format can reduce unwanted noise when audio must travel along a longer cable to a mixer or stage box.

Passive DI boxes are suitable for many instruments and line-level sources, while active models can provide a better match for certain low-level or high-impedance instruments. Features such as ground-lift switches can also help resolve hum caused by ground loops.

Choosing the Right Audio Equipment

The equipment required will depend on the sources being connected, the type of speakers used and the level of control needed.

A typical system using passive speakers consists of a media player, microphone or instrument connected to a mixer. The mixer output may then pass through a signal processor before reaching a power amplifier and passive speakers.

Active speakers already contain their own amplification, so they normally connect directly to the line-level output of a mixer or processor. A separate power amplifier is not required for active speakers.

Consider the following when planning your system:

  • Number and type of audio sources
  • Microphone, instrument, line and phono input requirements
  • Analogue or digital mixing
  • Passive or active speakers
  • Required amplifier output and speaker impedance
  • Stage-monitor and additional-zone outputs
  • Recording and USB audio requirements
  • Bluetooth and media playback options
  • Rack mounting and transportation
  • Future expansion of the system

Choosing compatible equipment is essential for reliable operation and good sound quality. Prebeat’s range of amplifiers, mixers, media players and processors provides solutions for compact mobile systems through to larger live sound and installed audio applications.
