WEBAMP 200, WEBAMP PRE or WEBTUNE
Which to choose?

Web players have become essential equipment for streaming music in retail outlets, restaurants, hotels and concert halls. JB Systems offers three models to suit every need: WEBTUNE, WEBAMP PRE and WEBAMP 200. See our full comparison to choose the ideal model.

The JB Systems web player comes in three models for integrating modern audio streaming into your installations. The WEB range from JB Systems offers three solutions for integrating modern audio streaming into your installations. All share the same comprehensive media player (Internet radio, DAB+, FM, Spotify Connect, podcasts, USB, Bluetooth), but differ in their function in the audio chain. Here’s how to choose.


01.

WEBTUNE: the universal audio player

This is the model for you. It’s a pure audio web player that connects to your existing equipment via its Toslink and RCA digital outputs. No amplification, no preamplification, just all your streaming sources via this device in a compact 19″/1U case.

Would you like to control several amplifiers or zones?

WEBAMP PRE adds a professional preamplification function to the WEBTUNE media player. Its two independent balanced outputs with separate volume and tone controls can drive two separate zones or several amplifiers. Four additional inputs are available for external sources (CD, TV, PC), and the microphone input with automatic talk-over handles your announcements.

Ideal for :

  • Multi-zone installations (restaurant with terrace, hotel with lounge areas) 
  • Driving several power amplifiers 
  • Mixing several audio sources 
  • Integration into an existing professional audio installation

Are you starting from scratch or looking for maximum simplicity?

The WEBAMP 200 integrates everything: media player, preamp AND amplification(2 x 250 W at 4 ohms). Connect your passive speakers directly to the main output and you’re ready to go. An additional master output with tone controls allows you to extend to an additional amplifier if required. Same source mixing and microphone input with talk-over as WEBAMP PRE.
