About this product
Compact 4-Channel Class-FD Design With 1-Ohm Stability - Professional Multi-Channel Power!
1200W Maximum Power with Variable HPF/LPF & Bridgeable Configuration The Pioneer GM-D8704 Class-FD amplifier delivers exceptional multi-channel performance in a compact form factor 50% smaller than traditional Class-AB designs. With 1200W maximum power (4 x 100W RMS at 4Ω, 4 x 150W RMS at 2Ω, or 2 x 300W RMS bridged at 4Ω), this versatile amplifier powers front and rear speakers or combines channels for subwoofer applications. The 1-Ohm stable circuit with Pioneer's Protection Control System continuously monitors internal temperature and automatically adjusts input levels to prevent shutdown while maximizing performance. The included wired bass boost remote provides 0-18dB adjustment at 50Hz for optimal bass control. Advanced audio tuning features include variable low-pass and high-pass filters (40-500Hz, -12dB/oct slope) for precise frequency control, automatic signal sensing with speaker-level inputs for factory integration, and gain control for both RCA (200mV-6.5V) and speaker-level (0.8V-16V) inputs. The amplifier delivers 95dB signal-to-noise ratio and maintains only 0.05% distortion at 10W, ensuring crystal-clear reproduction across the entire 10Hz-50kHz frequency response. Installation is simplified with dual 30A fuses, negative grounding, and ultra-compact dimensions (252mm x 60mm x 215mm) for versatile mounting options. The efficient Class-FD design minimizes heat generation while maximizing power delivery, making this amplifier ideal for comprehensive sound system upgrades.
