 The BasX A-400Z is a high-current two-channel audio distribution amplifier with flexible relay-controlled output switching, and the ability to drive up to four pairs of speakers. The A-400Z is also rated to drive loads as low as 2 Ohms and is stable into loads as low as one Ohm, which makes it the ideal choice for use with difficult to drive low impedance speakers. The A-400Z is built using proven technology including our short signal path class A/B output circuitry, and a microprocessor controlled intelligent protection system. Commercial grade construction and components throughout enable the A-400Z to provide excellent sound quality and superior technical performance with outstanding reliability and amazing flexibility. The BasX A-400Z delivers true audiophile sound quality - with an extremely low noise floor and vanishingly low distortion. Output power is 100 watts RMS/channel into 8 Ohms, 150 watts RMS/channel into 4 Ohms, and 250 watts RMS/channel into 2 Ohms. Separate sets of full-sized five-way binding posts simplify connecting up to four pairs of stereo speakers. Each set of speakers is individually relay switched, and controlled by a separate front panel push button switch. For unmatched flexibility, the BasX A-400Z also features a built-in 80 Hz high-pass filter for use with one or more subwoofers, and a rear-panel Master Volume control for matching the gain to your other gear. >> PRODUCT PAGE << |

You’d think, but as it says above, if you look at the back this looks to be a stereo power amp for up to 4 sets of speakers, ie all 4 sets of speakers are driven by a single stereo input? It only has one set of stereo inputs, so is more for distributing music round a house rather than ATMOS duties.
I’d desperately like to see a 4 & 6 channel BasX, especially with the rise in 9.x.6 processors. Seems a shame to have to buy A-500 or A-700.

Yeah, this is much more of a muti room amp for whole home audio or multiple outdoor speakers.

But I guess if you get a 5 or 7 channel you always have the extra channel in the crazy event one channel goes out in the future. |

It's rare that I want the same music playing in different rooms all at the same volume. I got spoiled by Sonos. Mark |

I don’t have Sonos, but even with AirPlay 2 I like having independent music in multiple rooms. |
