Yamaha’s Commercial Installation Solutions (CIS) range has seen the addition of new mixer and power amplifiers, expanding options for configuration of sound reinforcement systems.
The MA2120 and PA2120 add more power and flexible features to the existing MA/PA amplifier range, which has proved ideal for high-quality audio systems that can be configured quickly and easily, with no need for software control.
The MA2120 mixer amplifier features six mic/line inputs and two stereo inputs with input mixing capability. The mic inputs feature 24V capability, with inputs five and six able to be used as mono sum inputs. A range of onboard DSP functions (feedback suppressor, priority ducker, leveller, compressor and reverb/echo) add flexibility to accommodate a wider range of applications.
The MA2120 also features stereo source EQ with an enhancer function for inputs seven and eight, output EQ for each of the two output channels, selectable HPF/LPF settings and optimised EQ presets for VXS/VXC speakers and VXS subwoofers – making it possible to install an entire, high-quality audio system using Yamaha MA/PA amplifiers and VXS/VXC loudspeakers exclusively. The MA2120 and PA2120 are both capable of controlling input sources for applications with two different zones, such as a retail store with two floors or a restaurant with a seating area and separate bar area. For larger spaces, an additional PA2120 can be added to expand the system and accommodate additional zones.
Users can also add Yamaha DCP1V4S, DCP4V4S and DCP4S wallmount control panels to a system for remote control of output volumes and microphone on/off switching.
Both models support low impedance (120W x 2ch @4Ω /100W x 2ch @ 3Ω/8Ω selectable) as well as high-impedance (120W x 2ch/200W x 1ch, 70V/100V selectable) speaker systems. Both are equipped with class-D amplification and intelligent protection features in the power supply and amplifier unit. These models are also certified by Energy Star, the internationally recognized standard of environmentally-friendly equipment and facilities. They also qualify as Yamaha Eco Products.
‘We are very pleased to announce the addition of these new MA/PA power amplifier models to our acclaimed CIS line-up,’ says Yamaha Pro Audio Department Manager, Ken Hiraoka. ‘With the addition of these and the new CIS series loudspeakers that we are also launching, Yamaha can provide both end users and installers with a broader range of options to easily configure a high-quality sound system and create the commercial atmosphere that best suits their vision.’
