The Biamp PREZONE1 is a professional stereo preamplifier and dual-zone audio controller designed for commercial sound systems that require independent volume control and flexible source mixing. It provides separate stereo outputs for two zones while allowing microphone and music sources to be combined for applications such as restaurants, retail spaces, hospitality venues, conference rooms, and other distributed audio installations.
The PREZONE1 provides two microphone/line inputs and four stereo line-level inputs, giving installers flexibility when connecting paging microphones, announcements, background music, and other program sources. An emergency override input provides priority control when an emergency or dedicated override source needs to take precedence.
Independent volume control for each stereo zone makes it possible to adjust listening levels for different areas of a facility without affecting the other zone. The straightforward front-panel controls also make everyday operation simple for staff, while the organized rear-panel connections help streamline installation and system setup.
With 48V phantom power for compatible condenser microphones and a professional rack-mount design, the PREZONE1 is well suited for commercial audio systems where reliable source management and two-zone control are important.
