MZ-100 DSP Zone Amplifier
The MZ-100 is a versatile audio control system designed specifically for marine applications.
It contains a powerful Digital Signal Processor (DSP) for crisp clear audio reproduction. The
DSP continually monitors the output signal eliminating distortion and maximizing output
power. Four amplifier channels are capable of driving up to 2 subwoofers and 4 high-range
loudspeakers providing full, rich, stunning sound. The MZ-100 can be configured to operate as
an equalized fixed-gain booster amplifier, or connect the included remote volume control for
independent zone operation.
When combined with the Poly-Planar MRD-70 series/RD44 remote display audio controller,
the MZ-100 allows for multiple zones, (different cabins, fly bridge, cockpit, saloon) with
independent volume and source control, intercom, and local auxiliary input. The MZ-100 can
accept audio feed from any source. (iPod, MP3, any audio source) Coupled with a pair of
our marine grade speakers and a subwoofer, and you can create a stand-alone system for any
marine application.
