News Flash - Phoenix Sound announces

The BigSoundTMPB11

Phoenix BigSound TMPB11

Phoenix BigSound™ PB11
Phoenix BigSound™ PB11 Board: [sound] (shown above) $193.20
Phoenix BigSound™ PB11 Complete Kit - specify kit code $243.80

  • 16-bit Sound Reproduction
  • A 16-bit combination microprocessor and digital signal processor is used to produce museum-quality sound that cannot be matched by an 8-bit solution
  • 3 Watts Power
  • Strong 3 Watt amplifier produces more than sufficient volume for out-of-doors use, capable of handling loads down to 4 ohms.
  • 3-Volt Low-speed Operation
  • Most sound units do a poor job at low power settings - meaning at low run speeds. Not so with the PB11, it is fully operational at power settings as low as 3 Volts. There is usually some voltage loss from the track through the wheels and contacts to the board, so the track voltage may have to be 5 or 6 volts for continuous operation in order to keep the battery fully charged.
  • 5 triggers for external control
  • 5 different inputs provide flexibility for attaching external controls such as reed switches or remote control trigger outputs.

We are are a Phoenix dealer and offer large scale repair, conversion & installation services world wide. (click here for all Phoenix Discount Prices)
