INTRODUCTION
Thank your for your purchase of the Rolls MA2152 Mixer / Amplifi er. The MA2152 is a two rack space mixer amplifi er designed for restaurants, schools, churches, clubs etc. The unit provides a compact and effi cient way to mix up to three sources such as AM/FM tuners, CD players, and video players with up to two microphones. Priority talkover is provided on Microphone Two for paging, and on Source One for a jukebox, telephone, etc. The power output section may be connected to 8, or 16 ohm speakers, or a 25V or 70V system.
NOTE: THIS MANUAL ASSUMES THE USER HAS A WORKING KNOWLEDGE OF AUDIO ELECTRONICS, BALANCED AND UNBALANCED CONNECTIONS, AND PROPER SIGNAL LEVEL SETTING.
INSPECTION
- Unpack and inspect the MA2152 box and package.
If obvious physical damage is noticed, contact the carrier immediately to make a damage claim. We suggest saving the shipping carton and packing materials for safely transporting the unit in the future. - Please visit our website at www.rolls.com and click on the Register Your Warranty Here button, or complete the Warranty Registration Card and return it to the factory.

SCHEMATIC
POWER AMP SECTION

FRONT PANEL

Mic 1,2: Adjust the level of signal from the corresponding Mic Input.
TONE 1, 2: Adjusts the frequency content of the microphone signal in the channel. When the control is turned counter-clockwise, the high frequencies are cut, when the control is turned clockwise, the low frequencies are cut.
Source 1 - 3: Adjust the volume of input from the RCA Source Inputs.
IN 3: 1/8" (3.5 mm) Input jack - parallels the rear panel Source 3 Input.
Bass: Adjusts the low frequencies of the Source 1 and 2 signals only.
Treble: Adjusts the high frequencies of the Source 1 and 2 signals only.
Left / Right Output: Adjusts that channel's output level
Right/Left Clip: LEDs indicating clipping in the indicated MA2152 amplifier side.
Protect: Indicates that the amplifier has reached overload, and the MA2152 will need to be turned off, and restarted.
Power: LED indicating power is applied to the MA2152 and the unit is on.
REAR PANEL

IEC Power Input / Fuse Holder: Connects to the enclosed IEC power cable. Please replace fuse only with recommended rating.
4 - 8 Ohm / 25 Volt Output: The two red banana jacks are used when the MA2152 is in Bridge/Mono, or 70V mode.
RECORD OUT: Stereo RCA jacks, contains all mixed signals before the Master Level controls.
SOURCE INPUTS: Stereo RCA jacks, Channels 1 - 3, for connection to stereo sources such as AM/FM tuners, cassette players, cd players, or video players.
LEFT/RIGHT AMP INSERT: 1/4" Tip-Send, Ring-Return insert jack.
DIP SWITCH: Contains the small switches for engaging Mic 1, 2 phantom power, Source 3 Stereo or Mono, the priority (Talk Over) functions, and the Mono/Stereo select.
MICROPHONE ONE and TWO: Balanced XLR inputs to be connected to dynamic or condenser microphones.
BRIDGE SWITCH: This switch selects the output configuration; Bridge Mono, or Stereo / Dual Mono.
Inputs
Connect low impedance microphones to the Mic inputs. If a paging microphone is being used, connect it to Mic Input 1 so it may be used with the Talk Over function. Connect source signals such as CD players, cassette players or video players to the RCA Source Inputs. If a jukebox is being connected, and you want its signal to mute the other source signals, connect it to Source input 3.
For recording purposes, connect a stereo RCA cable to the Record Out jacks, and to your recording device.
Amp Inserts
To connect a signal processor to the MA2152 signal(s), use an insert plug, or cable wired as shown in Fig. 1. This return signal is then sent to the output level section of the amplifier.
Outputs
In STEREO MODE, the Right speaker is connected to the red and black banana RIGHT OUTPU connectors. The Left speaker is connected to the red and black banana LEFT OUTPUT connectors. Impedances should be no less than 4 Ohms. In BRIDGE MONO MODE, the speakers are connected to the two red BRIDGE OUTPUT connectors.
Connect the MA2152 to a properly grounded AC outlet. There is a one second turn-on delay provided to prevent possible speaker damage in case all equipment is on a single power strip.
BRIDGING
To bridge the MA2152 outputs together, first ensure the power is off. Move the BRIDGE switch to the "Bridge" position, and set the STEREO/MONO DIP Switch (details on the next page), to MONO. The Channel 1 Volume control will be the master volume - Channel 2 is inactive. Connect the load (speakers) to the two positive (red) banana jacks. Make no connections to the black posts. The level meters will both light, and the output power into 8 Ohms is the sum of the LEDs that light.
DRIVING 25 OR 70 VOLT LINES
The MA2152 will drive 25 or 70 Volt lines directly with no added transformers when used the following way:
- Each channel (used individually) will drive 25 Volt lines directly.
- A single 70 Volt line bay be driven when the MA2152 is in Bridged Mode. In order to drive two 70 Volt lines, two 8 Ohms to 70 Volt conversion transformers will be needed.
DIP SWITCH SETTINGS (From left to right)
- If a microphone requires phantom power, move the Mic channel's corresponding PHANTOM POWER switch to the on position. This applies 12 volts dc phantom power to the indicated microphone.
- SOURCE 1 MONO; this switch sums the Right and Left inputs of Source 1 to mixed dual-mono inputs.
- Mic 1 Priority; when in the on position, all program material on Mic 2 and Sources 1 and 2 will be "ducked" or muted when a signal is present at Mic 1. Source 3 is left un-muted.
This function is used for paging.
- Source 3 Priority: when in the on position, Source 1, and 2 will be "ducked" or muted by the signals at Source 3.
This function is for jukebox priority. With a jukebox connected to Source input 3, and the Talkover switch 2 on, the other Source input signals such as background music, will be muted and only the jukebox will be heard.
- MONO / STEREO: When down, the output of the MA2152 is summed to mono. Either jack can be used as a mono output.
FAULT PROTECTION
The fault protection in the MA2152 limits the current to the output stage. This mode is entered whenever the output stage is called upon for too much power, it may also be fooled by impedances lower than four ohms - which may cause the output stage to overheat and be irreversably damaged.
Since the MA2152 is convection cooled, the unit radiates heat from the front panel and, depending on the load demand, it may become very hot if drawn upon heavily.
