Description
The C-TEC PDA11/DW is a high-performance wall-mounted phase-array hearing loop amplifier built to deliver crystal-clear sound coverage in areas up to 1000m². Designed for environments such as conference halls, auditoriums, churches, and lecture theatres, this 2 x 7.5A amplifier offers powerful performance in a compact, mountable unit.
It features an intuitive LED interface for easy configuration of input levels, output current, phantom power, and metal compensation—ensuring the best possible sound quality regardless of room layout or structure. With dedicated XLR microphone and line inputs, plus an Outreach connector, the unit offers versatile connectivity for a wide range of audio sources.
Built on a class D output stage, the PDA11/DW delivers energy-efficient operation while maintaining excellent audio clarity. Its state-of-the-art audio processor and advanced CPU provide natural, life-like speech and outstanding music reproduction. Industry-leading dual action automatic gain control compensates for inconsistent mic techniques, while built-in fault relay and LED indicators ensure system status is always clear.
With the ability to daisy-chain units via the line-level output, the PDA11/DW is scalable for larger installations, and the anti-tamper lock function ensures secure operation. Designed to meet and exceed global standards for assistive listening, this system is a reliable solution for inclusive audio coverage in any large venue.
