Overview

Dayton Audio SPA250 250 Watt Subwoofer Plate Amplifier

Dayton Audio SPA250 250 Watt Subwoofer Plate Amplifier

Engineered to provide flexibility, ample power, and reliability

The Dayton Audio SPA250 subwoofer amplifier produces 250 watts of clean power output, and combines with a host of flexible user options to make it an unbeatable choice. The SPA250 features RCA line level and banana jack speaker level inputs and outputs, automatic power-on that is triggered by any audio input signal, and a phase reverse switch to match the subwoofer to your room and your other speakers. A single SPA250 can accept a stereo input signal and combine it into mono, which is preferred for sub bass reproduction. The internal low pass crossover is fully adjustable between 40 and 180 Hz, and of course the amp has built-in protection against internal and external faults.

Key Specs:

  • Channels: 1
  • Power Output @ 4 ohms (RMS): 250 Watts
  • Power Output @ 4 ohms (MAX): 500 Watts
  • Frequency Response: 20Hz - 180Hz

Phase Switch

Correct misalignment between your speakers and your subwoofer with a phase inversion switch

Variable Crossover

Maintain a smooth transition from your full-range speakers with a variable low-pass filter.

High-Level In/Out

High-Level inputs and outputs let you use any amplifier to feed the SPA250 and send it out to the full range outputs. Perfect for systems with no subwoofer output

Auto-On

When no signal is present, the SPA250 can shut itself off until you need it most!

Class-AB Reliability

The classic AB topology keeps distortion to a minimum while providing a peak wattage of 500W to your driver. the SPA250 is perfect for subwoofer duty due to its low noise and reliable performance and protection features.

A-Class Features

On the SPA250, the input and output connections are through your choice of either line level RCA connectors, or high-level inputs for maximum compatibility. A stereo input signal is summed to mono and sent to the internal low pass crossover, which is selectable from 40 to 180 Hz; the input gain sensitivity is fully adjustable as well. Also included is a phase reverse switch, which helps you to achieve the best acoustical match with the rest of your speakers.

A large surface area heat sink is combined with internal overload, thermal, and short circuit protection so that you can expect years of reliable operation.

Front:

1. Low-Level Inputs (Left/Right) - RCA Style jacks that will accept standard line level inputs from a pre-amp level source.

2. Low-Level Outputs (Left/Right) - RCA Style jacks that will pass the line level inputs through

3. High-Level Inputs - Accepts speaker level inputs for connection to amplifiers with no pre-amplified subwoofer output.

4. High-Level Passthrough - allows the speaker level input signal to be passed through to their intended speakers.

5. Power Input - Built-in power cord for connection to 120VAC mains.

6. Volume (Gain) - This control will match the amplifier's input sensitivity to the output of the pre-amp source

7. Frequency (Low-pass crossover) - This sets the highest frequency the subwoofer will reproduce and has a range between 40-180Hz with a slope of 24dB/Oct.

8. Power LED - When the power switch is moved to the “on” position, the LED will illuminate green, and the amp will be in “On” mode. If the protection circuit detects a short circuit or thermal overload the unit will shut down and the LED will turn red

9. Power Switch - On, Off and Auto mode. When the “Auto” position is selected, the amp is in “stand by” mode until an input signal of about 10 millivolts or greater is detected. The amp will go back to standby mode 10-15 minutes after the input signal stops

    10.Phase - This two-position (NOR = 0° phase and REV = 180° phase) switch helps to compensate for differences in the acoustical and electrical characteristics between the subwoofer and the main system speakers.

    11. Voltage Selection - Selects 115V or 230V Functionality

    12. Amplified Signal Output - Solderless disconnect terminals for driver connection: Red = 0.25" / Black = 0.205".
