Pick the amplifier after the speakers. First decide whether the speakers are 100V line or low-impedance, then add up their power, then choose an amplifier with 20 to 30 per cent headroom. Look for the inputs you need: Bluetooth, USB or AUX for music, and a microphone input if you want announcements. Zones and a locked volume are useful in shops and restaurants.
Key takeaways
- Match amplifier type to the speakers.
- Add up speaker watts, then add 20 to 30 per cent.
- Check inputs: Bluetooth, USB, AUX, microphone.
- Zones help in larger venues.

04Frequently asked questions
How many watts do I need?
Add up what the speakers need, then choose an amplifier with 20 to 30 per cent headroom. A small salon may need 60 to 120 W; a supermarket far more.
Can any amplifier drive ceiling speakers?
No. A 100V speaker needs a 100V amplifier and a low-impedance speaker needs a matching low-impedance one. Check the specification before buying.
Do I need a mixer amplifier?
If you want several inputs (music, microphone, a TV), a mixer amplifier is easier than separate parts.
