PMA450 Audio Panel: True Dimensional Sound

An impressive trait of audio maker PS Engineering is its drive to improve and advance products that would otherwise remain cutting edge for years to come. It seems every time I evaluate one of its feature-packed audio panels, a new model with more capability comes along a year later.

This year at AirVenture, PS Engineering introduced the $2395 PMA450, a slide-in replacement for the company’s PMA8000-series audio panel. It’s a product that I thought had more than enough functionality and features—perhaps more than some pilots use.
