Tascam MA-BT240 240-Watt Mixing Amplifier: Sound Reinforcement the Easy Way
The Tascam MA-BT240 is a versatile mixing amplifier designed to cater to various sound distribution needs, making it ideal for smaller commercial settings, presentations, and announcements. Whether you're in a restaurant, retail store, institution, waiting room, or a similar location, this amplifier has you covered.
Amp Up Your Sound with Flexibility
The MA-BT240 is all about flexibility. It provides amplification for both low- and high-impedance loudspeaker systems. It offers a microphone input, two line-level inputs, and even features a Bluetooth receiver for wireless audio streaming. Here's why it's a perfect fit for your small-format commercial sound reinforcement system:
Ready for Various Speaker Systems:
The MA-BT240 can drive both standard low-impedance loudspeakers and high-impedance 70-volt / 100-volt distributed loudspeaker systems. This adaptability makes it suitable for nearly any small commercial environment.
Reliable Class-D Amplification:
Despite its compact size, the MA-BT240 delivers high output thanks to its efficient Class-D amplification. With a robust output power of 240 watts (2 × 120 W at 4/8 Ω for low-impedance loudspeakers or 1 × 240 W at 100 V / 70 V for distributed loudspeaker systems), it has the power to cover medium-sized commercial spaces.
Wireless Audio Streaming Made Easy:
With its built-in Bluetooth receiver, the MA-BT240 simplifies wireless music streaming. The Bluetooth antenna is conveniently placed on the front panel for stable reception. If needed, you can extend the antenna's reach using a commercially-available PR-SMA cable, allowing you to position it optimally for your space (with a maximum extension of approximately 20 meters).
Integrated Mixer for Seamless Sound Control:
The MA-BT240 features an integrated mixer with a switchable Mic/Line input and ducking function. Additionally, it offers two line inputs for external audio players. Each input can be mixed using dedicated knobs on the front panel. Signal and Peak indicators are provided to help you maintain optimal signal levels at a glance.
Customize Your Sound with EQ and High-Pass Filter: Tailoring your audio to suit your space is simple with the MA-BT240. It includes a high-pass filter on the output to prevent distortion in high-impedance systems. You can fine-tune your sound using treble and bass controls. Plus, the output can be switched between stereo and mono operation to match your loudspeaker system's configuration.
Compact and Space-Saving: Despite its impressive capabilities, the MA-BT240 maintains a compact 1U half-rack size. It won't take up much space on your desktop. Additionally, if you require rack mounting, an optional AK-RM05 rack kit (sold separately) allows you to mount the MA-BT240 in any standard equipment rack.
Comprehensive Inputs and Outputs: Designed for small to mid-sized facilities, this amplifier offers a wide range of inputs and outputs to accommodate various audio sources and speaker systems.
Efficient Class-D Amplifier: Equipped with an efficient Class-D amplifier, it can power standard stereo loudspeakers or high-impedance distributed speaker systems with clarity and precision.
