Biamp MCA 8050

MCA Series Multi-Channel Amplifiers provide eight channels of power amplification. Model MCA 8050 delivers 50 watts/channel into 4 ohms. Model MCA 8150 delivers 150 watts/channel into 4 ohms. Channels may be bridged in pairs for higher combined wattage. Connections are provided for remote control of channel levels & muting. MCA Series amplifiers are covered by a five-year warranty.

ARCHITECTS & ENGINEERS SPECIFICATION

The multi-channel amplifier shall provide eight individual channels of power amplification, in two different models. One model shall deliver 50 watts/channel into 4 ohms, with channels bridgeable in pairs to provide 100 watts into 8 ohms. The other model shall deliver 150 watts/channel into 4 ohms, with channels bridgeable in pairs to provide 300 watts into 8 ohms. Connections shall be provided for remote control of individual channel levels & muting, via external potentiometers & switches. Channel inputs shall be line-level, with connections provided on plug-in barrier strips. Channel amplifier outputs shall be provided on standard screw terminals.
Each channel shall include LED indication of signal presence, output clipping, over-temperature condition, and output fault condition. Each channel shall include complete self re-setting protection against short-circuit, improper load, and over-temperature conditions. Input level controls & high-pass filter switches shall be provided on each channel. Internally mounted transformers for distributed speaker systems shall be available as a user-installed option, for both individual channel & bridged-pair outputs.
Frequency Response shall be +0/-1dB, THD+N shall be less than 0.2%, and S/N Ratio shall be greater than 85dB (20Hz~20kHz @ rated power). Power Consumption shall be less than 900 Watts (50 watt/channel model) or 1800 Watts (150 watt/channel model). The amplifier shall be CE marked, UL / C-UL listed, and shall incorporate AES48-2005 Grounding & EMC practices. The mixer shall be compliant with EU Directive 2002/95/EC, the RoHS directive. The amplifier shall carry a five-year warranty.
The 50 Watt / channel model shall be a BIAMP MCA 8050.
