Description
Need reliable, great-sounding audio for a smaller space without breaking the bank? The Bogen PS60 Platinum Series 60W Amplifier is a smart choice for retail shops, restaurants, small offices, classrooms, or houses of worship. This compact yet feature-packed public address mixer amplifier gives you crystal-clear sound, easy setup, and professional tools like a built-in 5-band parametric EQ that usually costs extra on other amps.
With six microphone inputs (including phantom power for quality mics), telephone paging that automatically ducks the music, and flexible 70V, 25V, or 8-ohm outputs, the PS60 handles everyday paging and background music perfectly. It's rack-mountable in just 2RU, runs on universal 100-240V power, and comes with a tamper-resistant front cover so settings stay safe. Backed by Bogen's 5-year warranty and built with the reliability you expect from a trusted name in commercial audio.
Our Expert Take: For most small-to-medium commercial installs, the PS60 strikes an outstanding balance of power, features, and value. It feels more like a premium amp than its price suggests. If you're upgrading an older system or building new, this is a safe, future-proof pick. Contact our team for help matching speakers or zoning-happy to quote a full system.
