B-52 MATRIX 600 600 Watt Active 3 Piece System is the newest member of the popular MATRIX family of active systems. Compact, powerful and portable the MATRIX-600 delivers clean and accurate sound ideal for both live sound and music playback applications. At the heart of the MATRIX-600 is a high quality 600-watt RMS stereo amplifier designed to perfectly match the included satellite speakers, built-in seven channel mixer, studio-quality DSP effects, 48V phantom power and countless patch inputs / outputs. The MATRIX-600 satellite speakers boast a high-fidelity 10" 3-way design which reproduces sound with amazing detail and clarity, traditionally unattainable with a 2-way speaker. The satellite speakers include both pole mounting cups and suspension points ideal for permanent installations. Covers for the speakers, carrying bag for the mixer/amplifier and cables are included.

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 AMPLIFIER

• 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 heatsink 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, 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 ¼"; & XLR mic inputs & balanced ¼"; jack line level inputs
• 48Vdc phantom power on balanced combo ¼"; & 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 accidental 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 ¼"; stereo input can also be used for mono acoustical instruments with a pick-up or as an extra mic using the combo ¼"; & XLR connector
• Stereo ¼"; input with a high |Z| input impedance to connect variety of stereo sources Combo ¼"; & XLR inputs to connect either mono acoustic instrument with a pick-up via the ¼"; 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 ¼"; 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

• 3-way rear-ported speakers substantially outperform traditional 2-way designs in virtually every application
• 10" high excursion woofer for extended and tight bass
• 6.5"; midrange with oversized magnet for clarity and wide coverage area
• 1"; exit phenolic tweeter on an exponential horn matches the acoustic response of 6.5" midrange driver
• Premium quality X-overs with air core inductors and Mylar capacitors for clean and unrestricted SPL peaks
• Light bulb protection circuitry on the tweeters for worry-free operation
• Built in suspension points for permanent installation
• 16-guage steel grilles, rubber feet and a conveniently located top handle
