Key Features & Capabilities
Flexible Speaker & System Integration
-
High & Low-Impedance Amplification: An efficient Class D amplifier drives both conventional low-impedance speakers (4/8Ω) and distributed high-impedance 70V/100V systems, making it compatible with nearly any commercial speaker setup.
-
Built-in Bluetooth Receiver: Easily stream background music and other audio content wirelessly from any smartphone, tablet, or computer, eliminating the need for extra cables and hardware.
-
Multiple Source Inputs: In addition to Bluetooth, the MA-BT240 features a combination Mic/Line input and two stereo RCA line inputs, allowing you to connect a variety of audio sources simultaneously.
Effortless Mixing & Paging
-
Intuitive Front-Panel Control: Simple, clearly-labeled knobs on the front panel provide independent volume control for the microphone, line inputs, and Bluetooth source, making daily operation effortless.
-
Automatic Ducking/Paging: When an announcement is made through the microphone input, the ducking function automatically and smoothly lowers the volume of the background music, ensuring announcements are always heard clearly.
-
Onboard EQ & Filtering: A 2-band equalizer and a switchable high-pass filter on the output allow an installer to easily tune the audio to match the room's acoustics and speaker characteristics.
Compact & Expandable Design
-
Compact Half-Rack Size: The small footprint allows the MA-BT240 to be conveniently placed on a desktop or shelf. It can also be professionally installed in an equipment rack using the optional AK-RM05 rack kit.
-
Remote Volume Control: A dedicated port on the rear panel allows for the connection of external wall-mounted volume controllers for remote master volume adjustment.
-
Line Output for Expansion: A dedicated line-level output makes it simple to create additional audio zones by sending the audio mix to another amplifier.
