QX4150

High Performance 4 x 150W Power Amplifier

The Quest QX4150 is a professional-grade 4 x 150W power amplifier housed in a compact 1U rack-mount chassis. Designed to deliver consistent performance across multiple channels, it provides 150W per channel into both 4 Ω and 8 Ω loads. Bridgeable outputs, integrated high-pass and low-pass filters, and a rapid 1ms standby wake-up time ensure precise signal processing and reliable operation in multi-zone systems. Its sophisticated design and robust construction make the QX4150 an ideal choice for commercial sound installations and high-end residential applications.

Key Specifications:

  • Channels: 4 x 150W (Low-Z) or 2 x 300W (Bridge Stereo for Low-Z & 70/100V)
  • Mounting: 1RU Rack
  • Optional: Dante/AES67 Version
