Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the Point of the PMA-720/520 Device?

A: The PMA-720/520 works as a stereo preamplifier that enables users to increase their audio signals before they hand it over to their main amplifier.

Q: What type of speakers work with PMA-720/520?

A: The device accepts speaker impedance of 4 to 16 Ohms for PMA-720 and 6 to 16 Ohms for PMA-520.

Q: Can I Use both Pairs A and B of speakers at once? Then why having these speaker pairs on my stereo?

A: Yes, however both pairs of speakers must not go below an 8 Ohm combined loading for the PMA-720, and 12 Ohms for the PMA-520.

Q: What is PMA-720’s maximum output power?

A: The maximum output power is 80W for each channel with an 8 Ohm load.

Q: And Is there such an equalizer inbuilt in the PMA 720/520?

A: The PMA-720 assists users with tone control functions, although in built equalizers are not particularly featured.

Q: What are some practical measures to avoid distortion if I set the volume to high?

A: Firstly, check the impedance of the speakers and make sure they are accurate. Secondly, check the connectors and the audio source for distortion.
