🔊 Monacor PA-948: Professional 480 W Mono PA Mixing Amplifier

The Monacor PA-948 is a powerful and versatile 480 W mono PA mixing amplifier engineered for professional public address, background music, and announcement systems. Built into a durable 3U, 19-inch rack-mountable chassis, it offers flexible connectivity and essential features for medium-to-large installations in schools, commercial spaces, warehouses, and places of worship.


 

Key Features & Connectivity

 

  • High Power Output: Delivers 1 x 480 W of power, suitable for driving both 100 V line systems and traditional low-impedance (4 ohms) speakers via robust screw terminals.

  • Comprehensive Inputs: Features 4 balanced microphone/line inputs (XLR) with selectable priority function, ensuring important announcements override other audio sources. It also includes 4 stereo line inputs (RCA) for connecting media players, tuners, or other auxiliary sources.

  • 48 V Phantom Power: Switchable 48 V phantom power on the microphone inputs allows for the use of high-quality condenser microphones.

  • External Chime: Includes a 2-tone or 4-tone chime function that can be activated externally, perfect for attention signals or paging.

  • Audio Control: Offers input level control, output master level control, and a 2-way tone control (bass/treble) to fine-tune the final sound output.


 

Installation & Reliability

 

  • Emergency Power Ready: The amplifier supports both standard mains operation and 24 V DC emergency power operation, ensuring continuous functionality during a mains power failure.

  • Flexible Outputs: Provides a balanced line output (XLR) and a record output (RCA) for connecting to external devices or additional amplifiers.

  • Insert Facility: An insert facility is included for integrating external effect units, equalizers, or feedback controllers into the signal chain.

  • Built to Last: Housed in a durable steel chassis and featuring a temperature-controlled fan for continuous, reliable operation and protection against overheating.

The Monacor PA-948 is the robust and feature-rich core your public address and background music system needs.
