When SpeakerCraft set out to develop the custom installation industry’s most complete line of amplifiers, they knew they had to have answers for the variety of situations that you encounter. At the SpeakerCraft Technical Training Institute in Riverside, California, their engineers and A/V dealers teamed up to design the Big Bang line of amplifiers. SpeakerCraft took their dealer’s input seriously, then went to work making their wish list a reality. The Big Bang series is a highly reliable line of amplifiers that offers a solution for every installation with a variety of power, performance and price points. The BB1235 is a multi-channel amplifier that has been designed to meet the needs of the most demanding home theater and multiroom applications. All of the custom user friendly features of their stereo amplifiers are included. In addition, all models feature independent level controls for each channel, which allow you to balance the volume for each room. Room volume can vary significantly depending on the type of speakers, and how many are installed. Which audio source do you want each channel to play? You have four choices, all selectable via a simple switch. Each channel can play inputs from a common left source, a common right source, a left + right source, or a dedicated source. This means one room can listen to a CD, while another room can be playing a radio station, or any audio source that is connected to that channel. Need extra power for a large room with lots of speakers? Just flip a switch and adjoining channels are bridged together to give you that extra power you need. You can also rest easy knowing that each channel has its own protection circuitry, shutting down only the troubled area when needed for system safety.
