SAMSON ZM 125
5-Zone Mixer /
Amplifier
(125watts)
Overview
The ZM series mixers provide an ideal solution for small
to medium-size commercial sound system installations.
Capable of providing 125
watts of clean power, the ZM125 features a built-in constant voltage power
amplifier that can also run at 25, 70 or 100 volts, or at 4 ohms. Six input
channels with individual level controls are provided, so connecting sound
sources is simple thanks to the available XLR, 1/4-inch and RCA connectors.
Additionally, the ZM125 features five selectable speaker zone outputs.
The ZM125
is ideal for distributing music and announcements throughout different rooms
and the dedicated paging microphone input allows you to setup a distant paging
station (for a hostess in a restaurant, for example).
There's even an on-board
chime, with four selectable tones, to alert the listeners of an upcoming
page.For businesses that want to improve their customers' telephone experience,
a MOH (Music On Hold) facility is also included. When interfaced with a
business telecom system, music or valuable pre-recorded announcements are heard
while customers are on hold.To control the overall tonal response of the sound
system, the ZM series employs a seven-band graphic equalizer. A master level
control and five segment level meters allow you to set a clean signal at the
correct volume. For added flexibility you can add the optional Samson TCM-3
sound module with FM tuner and CD player that can play both standard CDs and
CDs with MP3s.
The ZM125 can be table-top or mounted in a standard 19-inch
equipment rack using the included rackmount ears. The sleek black finish
matches just about any décor, plus the steel chassis adds to its durability and
reliability. Perfect for schools, restaurants, office buildings, small
factories, or just about any place high quality, distributed audio is needed,
the ZM125 offers excellent sound and great value.
