Tascam MA-BT240 Mischverstärker with Bluetooth

Sound reinforcement the easy way

The MA-BT240 is a versatile mixing amplifier designed for background sound reinforcement, presentations and announcements in small business premises. Combining an amplifier for low and high impedance speaker systems with a microphone input, two line level inputs and a Bluetooth receiver for wireless audio streaming, it is the ideal choice for restaurants, retail stores, institutions, waiting rooms and similar locations.

Suitable for stereo speakers or distributed (Ela) speaker systems

The MA-BT240 can drive both low-impedance standard speakers and high-impedance 70 volt/100 volt speaker systems. This makes it the ideal choice for virtually any small-format sound reinforcement system in the commercial sector.

Reliable Class D amplifier

The highly efficient Class D power amplifier in the MA-BT240 delivers more power than its compact size would suggest. With an impressive output power of 240 watts (2 × 120 W at 4/8 Ω for low impedance speakers or 1 × 240 W at 100 V / 70 V for distributed speaker systems), the MA-BT240 offers plenty of power even for medium-sized business premises.

Integrated Bluetooth receiver for wireless streaming

The MA-BT240's built-in Bluetooth receiver makes it easy to stream music wirelessly. The Bluetooth antenna is mounted on the front to ensure reliable reception. You can also extend the antenna with a standard PR-SMA cable* to place it in the optimal position for your room.

Built-in mixer with microphone and line inputs

In addition to the Bluetooth interface, the MA-BT240 has a switchable microphone/line input with ducking function and two additional line inputs for external players. The individual inputs can be mixed using the corresponding controls on the front panel. Signal and peak value displays help to keep an eye on the audio level at all times.

EQ and high-pass filter at the output

With the MA-BT240, you can easily adapt your sound to the acoustic conditions of your environment. The output has its own high-pass filter to prevent distortion in 70/100 volt systems. Treble and bass controls allow you to fine-tune the sound characteristics of your system. The output can also be switched between stereo and mono operation, depending on the configuration of your speakers.
