Massive Audio TX48 Trident 4-Channel Marine Amplifier

Product Overview

The Massive Audio TX48 Trident is a 4-channel marine amplifier that gives you four amplified speaker channels. It is rated at 400W RMS per channel at 2 ohms or 200W RMS per channel at 4 ohms, with crossover controls for configuring the output.

Its conformal-coated circuit board helps resist moisture, dust, and extreme heat. For marine installation, place the amplifier in a protected location.

Key Features & Benefits

• Four amplified channels: Choose between the listed 2-ohm and 4-ohm RMS ratings to plan your speaker setup.
• Flexible input configuration: The 2/4-channel switcher supports different input configurations.
• Selectable crossover: LPF, HPF, and FULL settings let you select the listed crossover mode.
• Moisture-resistant board: The conformal-coated circuit board helps resist moisture, dust, and extreme heat.
• Optional Bluetooth streaming: Add the optional UBT1 dongle for Bluetooth audio streaming; Bluetooth is not built in.
• Additional system features: Full-range line output supports monoblock linking, while Hi-Inputs provide auto-sensing turn-on and a 12V remote output for external devices.

Why Choose This Product?

The TX48 combines four speaker channels with selectable crossover modes and a switch for 2- or 4-channel input configuration. Its full-range line output is specified for monoblock linking, making that feature relevant when planning a system that includes a monoblock amplifier.

The coated circuit board and built-in noise reduction and protection circuitry are useful design considerations for a marine audio system. Bluetooth streaming is an add-on option, not a built-in feature.

Installation & Compatibility Notes

Check the amplifier’s dimensions—1.6" x 4.25" x 10.75"—against your available mounting space. Install it in a protected location, as directed in the product information.

Confirm your speaker load and wiring plan against the listed 2-ohm stereo minimum load and the amplifier’s ratings. Bluetooth audio streaming requires the optional UBT1 dongle.
