11 SYSTEM SPECIFICATION
Controls and features:
Inputs:
1 & 2. Four input Line level phono connector, fixed gain,
allowing two stereo inputs.
3. One independent mic/line input; Priority
Microphone/Line control which is switchable between Mic or
Line level. VOX switching is permanently enabled on this
channel.
4. One independent Mic input, gain control – rear panel,
allowing adjustment to the correct level.
DC Power input, 2.1mm, centre positive.
Controls:
Tone control: Independent front panel control allowing
frequency response adjustment for differing installation
variations.
Loop volume: Independent front panel control allowing
Loop output current (volume) adjustment.
Microphone input 4 gain control – rear panel.
Input specifications:
Microphone input 4:
Connector: 3.5mm mono jack socket.
One independent microphone input suitable for use with an
unbalanced electret microphone.
Input impedance: 8kΩ.
Phantom voltage: 6V via 10kΩsource.
Input sensitivity: -60dBu for maximum output
Switchable Line / Mic input 3:
Line input selected:
Connector: 3.5mm mono jack socket.
Slide switch selection.
Input impedance: 820kΩ.
Input sensitivity: Line input selected: -20dBu for maximum
output after VOX enabled at -12dBu
Microphone input selected:
Levels as per microphone input 4.
Line level inputs 1 and 2:
4-way phono input connector. Fixed gain.
Input sensitivity: -10dBu for maximum output.
Overload: >30dBu
Compression:
Compression Dynamic range: >36dB before overload.
(Typically 40dB).
Compression indication via amber signal LED.
Efficiency: ± 1 dB across 40dB dynamic range.
Attack and decay times optimised for speech.
Attack time: Less than 5ms; Decay time: Less than 2 seconds.
Frequency response:
80 Hz to 6.3 kHz ± 1.5dB into 1Ωload at low level, measured
as loop current with no Metal Loss correction.
Tone control:
A modified tone control allowing a flat response or bass boost
/ HF cut or HF boost / bass cut, with additional HF boost to
allow compensation for distortion due to metal structures in
surrounding buildings.
Outputs:
Headphone monitoring output via front panel with stereo
3.5mm jack.
Output connection: Loop, finger operated quick connect
output connector.
Current: >2.4A
RMS
into 1Ω.
Voltage: >3.2V

Loop resistance: 0.3Ωto 1.0Ωresistive or 1.5Ωmaximum
reactive impedance at 1.6 kHz.
Connection: Finger operated speaker type connector.
Area coverage:

coverage to requirements of IEC60118-4, or use with
supplied special loop pad.
Note that the amplifier can drive loops far in excess of this
size if the full performance of IEC60118-4 is not required by
the end user.
