Multi-zone custom installation power amplifier module • 4 channels x 60W continuous power into 8Ω and 4Ω • bridgeable to 2 channels x 140W into 8Ω • energy-efficient Class D output stages • compact modular form factor for multi-room audio racks • phoenix-style speaker terminals • 12V trigger sensing & signal-sensing auto-standby
The NAD CI PA4-60 Power Amplifier Module delivers reliable, high-efficiency multi-room amplification engineered specifically to meet the rigorous thermal and spatial demands of modern custom installation racks. Delivering 60 watts of continuous, clean power across four discrete channels into 8 or 4 ohms—or bridgeable to 140 watts per channel across two channels—this commercial-grade amplifier module provides flexible power distribution for architectural in-ceiling, in-wall, and outdoor audio zones. Featuring low-distortion Class D amplification topology, Euroblock/Phoenix wiring connections, individual channel gain calibration, and automated 12V trigger power management, it provides an uncompromising, rock-solid acoustic backbone for whole-home audio integration.
Key Features & Innovations
Robust 4-Channel High-Efficiency Class D Topology — the NAD CI PA4-60 Power Amplifier Module delivers a continuous 60W per channel into either 8-ohm or 4-ohm loads, providing load-stable current delivery with minimal thermal dissipation in crowded AV equipment racks.
Flexible Bridgeable Output Mode — easily reconfigured via rear-panel switches into a 2-channel bridged configuration outputting 140W per channel into 8 ohms, ideal for driving power-hungry outdoor speakers or higher-output architectural subwoofers.
Installer-Friendly Modular Architecture — designed for streamlined rack integration, featuring detachable Phoenix-style speaker terminal blocks and compact dimensions that facilitate clean cable dressing and efficient chassis stacking.
Intelligent Signal-Sensing & 12V Trigger Control — incorporates automated audio signal-sensing standby modes alongside a global 12V trigger input and loop-through, ensuring immediate turn-on response while conserving energy during idle system periods.
Independent Channel Gain & Global Bus Routing — features per-channel input gain potentiometers to accurately match zone volume levels across rooms with disparate speaker impedances, paired with flexible audio busing options.
FAQ — NAD CI PA4-60
How many speaker zones can the NAD CI PA4-60 Power Amplifier Module power?
The NAD CI PA4-60 Power Amplifier Module can power two independent stereo audio zones (4 channels at 60W each) or one higher-powered stereo zone in bridged mode (2 channels at 140W each into 8 Ohms).
Can this amplifier module safely handle 4-ohm speaker loads?
Yes. The amplifier's Class D output stages are fully rated and load-stable into 4-ohm impedances in 4-channel mode, allowing you to drive lower-impedance architectural or outdoor loudspeakers without overheating.
What type of speaker wire connectors are used on the rear panel?
It utilizes detachable Euroblock/Phoenix screw-terminal connectors, allowing custom integrators to pre-wire speaker runs and quickly plug them into the amplifier chassis during rack trim-out.
Does the amplifier require continuous power or does it sleep when idle?
The unit features both automated audio signal sensing and 12V trigger inputs, putting the amplifier into an eco-friendly standby mode (< 0.5W) when no music is playing and waking instantaneously when audio is detected.
