RCF MS 520: 40 W, 7 IN, MULTI-ZONE MUSIC AND PAGING SYSTEM

An elegant slim-line device contains all the functions required by a system for distributing different musical programmes in homes for multi-room sound systems and commercial premises.

Three different musical programmes and one for paging can be transmitted in five mono zones, or alternatively four zones, one of which is in stereo. It is also possible to extend the number of zones to ten using a simple connector to interlink two systems. The system has five amplified 20 W / 4 ohm outputs. For each of the five zones, a direct auxiliary input is available for connecting sources such as CD players or mixers to be used exclusively for one zone/room.
The back-lit display and function keys make it possible to access all the menus for configuring and adjusting the system: Volume, Tone, Loudness, Output settings, VOX.

The dbx 560A Compressor/Limiter offers legendary VCA-based compression in the increasingly popular 500 Series format. dbx has a much-heralded history with modular processors dating back to our 900 Series and the 560A continues that tradition.

Featuring the same switch-selectable OverEasy? and Hard Knee compression curves as our industry-standard dbx 160A rackmount processor, the dbx 560A will be your new workhorse compressor! With extremely wide-ranging threshold, ratio and output controls and true RMS level detection providing the most natural-sounding dynamics processing available, the 560A will provide punch to drums, bass, vocals, almost anything! It’s also versatile enough to go from subtle compression to "brick wall" peak limiting.

• For avoiding signal interference and ground loop problems
• Input and outputs galvanically isolated
• Two high-quality audio transformers
• Rugged metal housing
• For application areas such as: Installation; mobile use; mobile djs / entertainer
