Description
The Yorkville CA1 is a Coliseum Series installation amplifier offering six input channels, four output zones, and straightforward controls for versatility and ease of use in restaurants and retail environments as well as houses of worship, offices, and conference rooms. With 180W of output power, it can drive a 4-ohm speaker load or four 70V speaker systems while a dedicated preamp out can feed a subwoofer or an audio recorder. Its wide range of inputs include a front-panel 1/4" mic input with voice priority, three XLR-1/4" combo mic/line inputs with selectable 24V phantom power for podium/lavalier condenser microphones, two stereo RCA inputs with 4-stage sensitivity selection, and a dedicated 600-ohm telephone input. In addition to having screw terminals to accommodate hookup of constant-impedance or constant-voltage speakers, the CA1 provides a 1W / 8-ohm auxiliary loudspeaker output and a front-panel 1/4" monitor output. Thanks to individual channel volume knobs, a large master volume control, and 2-band EQ, the CA1 allows efficient mixing without having to enter menus or even leave the front panel. Per-zone and all-zone speaker selection switches enable simple management of all output zones. The CA1's sturdy steel chassis can be mounted in 3 RU of rack space in a standard 19" equipment rack.None 180W (mono) for driving a 4-ohm speaker load or four separate 70V speaker systems (one system per zone)None Front-panel 1/4" TS mic input with voice priorityNone Three XLR-1/4" TRS combination mic/line combination inputs with selectable 24V phantom powerNone Two stereo RCA inputs with 4-stage input sensitivity selection for sources such as CD players, cassette decks, satellite tuners, and DVD/video systemsNone Master volume, 2-band EQ, and per-channel volume controlsNone Speaker connect/disconnect switches for each zone and all zonesNone RCA preamp output can be used to feed an auxiliary power amplifier or active subwoofer to enhance the system, or to feed video or audio recording equipmentNone 600-ohm telephone paging inputNone Front-panel 1/4" monitor output and 1W / 8-ohm rear-panel speaker output for monitoring music signalsNone Outputs for speakers with constant impedance (4-ohm speakers) and constant voltage (25, 70, or 100 volts)None LED VU meterNone Protection against short-circuiting between output terminalsNone Direct current supplies 24 VDCNone Sturdy rack-mountable 3 RU steel chassis
