NAD CI PA4-60 4-Channel Power Amplifier Module with DirectDigital Amplification

NAD CI PA4-60 Power Amplifier Module for Custom Installation and Distributed Audio

The NAD CI PA4-60 power amplifier module is a compact, high-performance four-channel amplifier designed specifically for custom installation and distributed audio systems. Built around NAD’s proven DirectDigital™ amplification in a one third width, 1U rack-mount chassis, it delivers clean, reliable power with efficient thermal management for consistent long-term operation.

Flexible Power for Multi-Room and Home Theatre Systems

The CI PA4-60 delivers 60 watts per channel into 4/8 ohms across four independent channels, making it ideal for powering multiple speakers in distributed audio systems or surround and height channels in a home theatre system. Dynamic Power Management also allows it to be configured as a higher-power two-channel amplifier when zones or speakers require higher output.

• 60 watts per channel into 4/8 ohms
• 120W x 2 or 60W x 4 (8 ohms)
• Four independent channels
• Suitable for distributed audio, surround, and height channels

DirectDigital™ Amplification for Clean, Dependable Performance

NAD’s DirectDigital™ amplification combines high efficiency with low noise and distortion for clean audio in distributed audio and home theatre systems. This design minimizes heat generation while maintaining clean and dynamic audio at any listening level, and it is load invariant and capable of driving difficult loads with ease.

• DirectDigital™ amplification
• Low noise and distortion
• THD+N: 0.005%
• Signal-to-noise ratio: -102dBA
• Efficient thermal design for reliable long-term operation
