EAW CXA160 Description:

2 INPUT X 1 OUTPUT 160 W POWER AMPLIFIER

The new EAW Commercial CXA160 power amplifier features a flexible input/output design that makes it ideal for stand-alone operation as well as a convenient solution where additional system zones need to be added.

Specifically intended for a wide variety of installation applications, CXA160 is outfitted with both a standard audio input as well as a dedicated priority input, combining to make them very cost-effective two-input by one-output units.

Two combination mic/line inputs are actively balanced, with individual adjustable potentiometers for line level input, mic level input, and mic level input with 24-volt DC phantom power.

Input 1 and the priority input are divided into four discrete input sections: a combination XLR/TRS connector, Phoenix connector, or barrier strip. Meanwhile, a Parallel output provides handy "loop-through" capability - the means to pass un-amplified line level signals downstream to additional amplifiers via barrier strip, Phoenix, 1/4- inch or XLR outputs.

Priority announcements can be initiated with external contact closures or adjustable signal threshold levels. External volume control is also possible through a Phoenix connector as well as a user-supplied potentiometer. Further, a two-position Phoenix connector allows the internal fault relay to be connected to redundant systems.

Front panel controls include low and high EQ controls which offer 12 dB of boost or cut at 100 Hz and 10 kHz, respectively. A master volume control offers output volume control, while distinctive LEDs indicate power (green), signal (amber), overload (red), and fault (red).

The CXA160 provides 160 watts of output power at 100 volts, 70.7 volts, 25 volts and 4 Ohms. An intelligent output stage is fully protected against permanent damage caused by overloading, shorts and thermal faults.

CXA160 operates on 100 volts to 240 volts AC (50/60 Hz) and is supplied by a detachable IEC power cord. A combination banana plug/binding post connection is also provided for connecting an external 24-volt DC backup battery.
