Details
The CMX 300Va feature set is designed for wide-ranging application in facilities such as performance halls, houses of worship, sports clubs, gymnasiums, dance venues, pubs, and FGM/BGM systems. The CMX 300Va provides unmatched performance, the right power for the job and an affordable price point.
Proven and Reliable Power Plant
CMX 300Va amplifier incorporates everything QSC has learned in more than forty years of striving to deliver worry-free operations without failures. The design of these amplifiers starts with our world-class power supplies. The CMX 300Va uses a powerful, high-current toroidal transformer and filtering to ensure generous energy reserves. This allows the amplifiers to effortlessly handle high-level transients, even when driving abusive 2-ohm speaker loads.
CMX 300Va amplifier is protected from damage from shorted outputs. Automatic current limiting protects the amplifier from damage until the short is corrected. CMX 300Va amplifier also features DC protection systems to prevent loudspeaker damage in the unlikely event of an output transistor failure. DC voltage from the power supply is never passed directly to your speakers, even in the event of an output circuit failure.
Superior Performance
The CMX 300Va amplifier delivers true and accurate studio-quality sound. A full complementary output circuit using high-grade linear output devices generates accurate, flat-frequency response with low distortion.

- This is a great system. It has all the power I needed for my application.
- I would recommend Jeff Palladino and Pro Acoustics to anyone who may be thinking about updating an existing audio system or installing a new one. Jeff didn’t tell me what he thought I should have, he walked me through all the different options and explained the pros and cons of each. He made it simple enough for me to understand what would work best for me in my situation. Even after I had paid for the system, but Jeff didn’t stop there. He was always only a phone call away to help with the installation and set-up until everything was exactly the way I wanted it. He even followed up after that to make sure everything was just the way I wanted it to be and I didn’t need any more help. If I ever have any audio needs in the future I will be calling Jeff. The sound is great Jeff, thanks.
