HH Electronics Launches MZ-Series Multi-Zone Install Amplifier Range
- Details
At the heart of the range is the Origin multi-core platform. Its processor uses 56-bit floating point precision to ensure input routing, level controls and EQ settings introduce no digital artefacts and provide enhanced headroom. Configurable limiting per zone allows for mixing and matching both Hi Z and Low Z speakers, giving flexibility for multiple situations. Origin’s eco power saving allows for less than half a watt power consumption in standby mode, perfect for continuous usage whilst lowering energy consumption.
Three robust, easily operable 1U rack amplifier models are available. The MZ-140D, 2 Zone, featuring two individual 140 Watt RMS Class D amplifiers, MZ-140Q (four zone, 4 x 140 Watt) and MZ-280Q (four zone 4 x 280W) can be configured to run 70/100 Volt or at minimum 4 ohm impedance. Each amplifier is a zone, and there are front panel controls for volume, two band EQ and source select per zone.
There are five flexible input channels, each with a front panel mounted gain trim control. Dual combi microphone inputs allow two individual mics to be connected simultaneously both with auto or manual priority modes. Front 'scribble' strips allow the installer to easily identify each zone and input identification. A dedicated fire/emergency input can override the system.
The range includes the MZ-64P, a four zone-control pre-amplifier offering five fully-featured input channels so audio can be directed accordingly. The amplifiers and pre-amp are supported with wall controllers to enable remote control over input source and volume, available in US/EU formats in both black and white.
