CAD Audio PX3002 300W 2-Channel Power Amplifier Review

The CAD Audio PX3002 is a professional two-channel Class-D amplifier designed for dependable performance in demanding audio setups. It delivers 150 watts per channel at 8 ohms or 300 watts per channel at 4 ohms. For systems that need more power from a single output, bridge mode provides up to 600 watts at 4 ohms. Stereo, parallel, and bridge modes make it easy to adapt the amplifier to different speaker configurations.

Balanced XLR inputs and link outputs simplify connections and allow you to send audio to additional equipment. Three speakON speaker outputs support standard stereo and bridged setups. The PX3002 also features a built-in peak limiter and a switchable 75 Hz low-cut filter to help protect connected speakers. Its temperature-controlled fan adjusts cooling as needed, while protection circuits guard against overheating, overloads, short circuits, and DC faults. With a lightweight design, soft-start power control, and a ground-lift switch, the PX3002 is a practical solution for installed sound and live audio applications.
