All channels of the MA 6S are completely independent.
Each is contained on its own circuit board making it immune
to the actions of any other channel. Power is distributed to
each channel from one master high current power supply,
however the power supply is designed so that signal may not
back-feed from a heavily loaded channel to any other chan-
nel. This makes power supply cross talk between channels
inaudible.
The heavy gauge all-steel construction of the MA 6S
offers a high level of mechanical integrity, even when the
amplifier is rack-mounted and unsupported in the rear. As an
added benefit, mounting holes are provided on the side rails
so the amplifier may be supported from the back.
General Description
The Rane Model MA 6S Multichannel Amplifier supplies
six completely independent amplifier channels in one 3-space
rack-mount unit. Each channel delivers 100 watts rms into an
eight ohm load, or 150 watts each into a four ohm load.
Adjacent pairs of channels (1&2, 3&4, 5&6) may operate
bridged to provide 300 watts into an eight ohm load.
Each channel of the MA 6S includes an input Voltage
Controlled Attenuator (VCA). This carefully designed VCA
prevents clipping at the output of the amplifier for any load
for up to 15 dB of input overdrive. This VCA provides
additional headroom to each channel, making the 100 watt
ratings effectively much higher, and the results much louder.
