B-52 Matrix 600 (B52 Matrix 600) Speaker System
The MATRIX-600 speakers deliver clean and accurate sound ideal for both live
sound and music playback applications. At the heart of the B-52 MATRIX-600 PA
system is a high-quality 600W RMS stereo amplifier designed to perfectly match
the included satellite speakers. The system also includes a built-in 7 channel
mixer, studio-quality DSP effects, 48V phantom power, and ample patch
inputs/outputs. The MATRIX-600 satellite speakers boast a high-fidelity 10"
3-way design that reproduces sound with a detail and clarity, traditionally
unattainable with a 2-way speaker. The PA speakers include both pole mounting
cups and suspension points ideal for permanent installations. Covers for the
MATRIX-600 speakers, carrying bag for the mixer/amplifier, and cables are
included.
B-52 Matrix-600 PA System Features:
- Master Controls
- 7-band master EQ section with slide potentiometers
- LED meters display left and right channel output power levels
- Conveniently located master level control with a large knob
- Level control for monitor output
Stereo Power Amplifiers
- Output stage with discrete, high current output devices - not integrated
IC amps
- Output power of 2 x 300W RMS with high headroom
- Very efficient cooling, utilizing a large heat sink and two direct-flow
fans with variable speed control for quiet operation
- Power supply with low-noise toroidal transformer and a dual voltage
(115/230Vac) selector switch
- Comprehensive amplifier and speaker protection circuitry to guard
against short circuits, DC offsets, over-heating, turn-on thumps, and
subsonic and supersonic frequencies.
- Built-in high quality stereo clip limiter
- Equalization customized to enhance and optimize speaker system
performance.
7-Channel Mixer Features
- Four channels (Ch. 1-4) with balanced, combo 1/4" & XLR mic inputs &
balanced 1/4" jack line level inputs
- 48V/DC phantom power on balanced combo 1/4" & XLR inputs for condenser
microphones
- Phantom power can be switched on/off separately on two pairs of inputs
- The phantom power on/off switches are securely recessed behind the front
panel to avoid accidentally switching them on/off
- PAN, 3-band EQ, monitor level and effect level controls on each channel
- Stereo input channel (Ch. 5) with high impedance 1/4" stereo input can
also be used for mono acoustical instruments with a pick-up or as an extra
mic using the combo 1/4" & XLR connector
- Stereo 1/4" input with a high |Z| input impedance to connect variety of
stereo sources
- Combo 1/4" & XLR inputs to connect either mono acoustic instrument with
a pick-up via the 1/4" TRS connector or low impedance dynamic mic via the
XLR connector
- Pan/Balance, 3-band EQ, monitor level and effect level controls
- Stereo input channel (Ch. 6) for stereo sources
- Dual stereo inputs with 1/4" TRS and 3.5mm mini-jack to connect any
2-channel source
- 3-band EQ, monitor level and effect level controls
- House input with stereo RCA connectors and a dedicated level control
- This input is located within the Ch. 6 section but is, in fact, a
totally separate 7th input for a stereo house source such as a CD player
Loudspeakers
