The ZQ Series uses award-winning technology designed to deliver a natural, uncompromised sound. Highly regarded by Phoenix Gold enthusiasts and audiophiles, the ZQ Series represents a return to PG's original core values of premium, high-end audio.

The ZQ5004's PCBs feature a two-layer gold immersion treatment, and the terminals are 24K gold plated for superior connectivity. The dual power supply is optimised to feed the amplifier consistently, using Nichicon (Japan) and Wima (Germany) capacitors throughout.

High-end polymer gain potentiometers aid amplification, and the shielded transformer cores — manufactured in Germany — ensure a clean power feed. The dual-colour extruded heatsink with heat transfer optimisation keeps the amplifier cool under sustained heavy use.

The ZQ5004 is engineered for low EMI emissions, minimising interference with the vehicle's electronics and FM signal. If you need a mono or multi-channel option in a smaller form factor, Phoenix Gold also offer the ZXM500.4 ZX Series 4-channel mini amplifier.

About the Phoenix Gold ZQ5004

From our tech experts at CEN

A 4-channel amplifier from Phoenix Gold, rated at 85w RMS.

Who it suits

Drivers whose speakers have outgrown the head unit.

Our tech experts advise

Matching matters more than headline watts, and gains want setting with a meter. It needs a fused feed from the battery on the correct cable gauge. Installation is priced per vehicle, so get in touch with your make, model and year and we will confirm what it needs. See car audio installation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do I choose the right amplifier for my speakers or subwoofer?

A: Match the amplifier's RMS output per channel to the RMS handling of your speakers or subwoofer at the same impedance. The Specification tab lists the power figures. If in doubt, contact CEN with your setup and we will recommend a match.

Q: What wiring do I need to install this amplifier?

A: You will need an amplifier wiring kit sized to the amplifier's power draw, typically including power and earth cable, a fuse, RCA leads and a remote wire. CEN stocks complete wiring kits, and the amplifier's fuse rating is the guide to the cable gauge required.

Q: What class of amplifier is this and does it matter?

A: Class D amplifiers are compact and efficient, ideal for subwoofers and modern installs. Class AB designs are traditionally favoured for outright sound quality on mid and high frequencies. The class is listed in the Specification tab where provided.

Q: Will an amplifier work with my factory head unit?

A: Yes, in most cases. If your head unit has no RCA outputs you will need a line output converter to feed the amplifier a clean signal. CEN stocks line output converters and can advise the right one for your vehicle.

Q: Can CEN install this amplifier?

A: Yes. CEN offers professional amplifier installation from our Nottingham premises, including secure mounting, wiring and setup. Contact us to book.

Q: How much power does the Phoenix Gold ZQ5004 produce?

A: The ZQ5004 delivers 85W RMS x 4 at 4 ohms, 130W RMS x 4 at 2 ohms, or 250W RMS x 2 bridged at 4 ohms.

Q: Is the ZQ5004 Class A/B or Class D?

A: The ZQ5004 uses pure Class A/B technology.

Q: Can the ZQ5004 be bridged?

A: Yes. It can be bridged to deliver 250W RMS x 2 into 4 ohms.
