Bogen CT60B Schematic
A DIVISION OF LEAR SIEGLER, INC.
UBLIC
The
Bogen
mixer-equalizer-amplifiers, designed for professional-quality
sound systems that once required custom audio equipment. The
CT60B,
rated at 60 watts, and the
output, are comprised of integrated circuits, silicon transistors and
diodes with the latest state-of-the-art active 2/ 3 octave equalization
circuitry.
Four low-impedance, transformer isolated, balanced microphone inputs, (expandable to six with an accessory PMM-2B)
each with individual volume controls, are convertible to highimpedance inputs by rearranging jumpers on the printed circuit
board. A phantom supply for the use of condenser microphones is
built into these units. Professional three-pin female, XLR-type
microphone connectors are provided on the rear panel.
Two auxiliary channels, with an
can be used for inputs from a tuner, tape/cassette player,
phonograph with a ceramic cartridge, or an optional
Multiple Tone Generator.
Built-in microphone precedence, remote volume control,
500/600-ohm line input and output, with accessories, tape and
tape/ booster outputs, amplifier bridging, and connecting amplifiers’ outputs in series are among the many capabilities of these
units.
Ten slide controls, with detented flat positions, allow the
selected frequency equalizer filter circuit to meet individual
installation requirements. Feedback is virtually eliminated, while
intelligibility is greatly improved, and usable power is increased.
A recessed screwdriver-adjustable front panel control for an
electronic compressor circuit is also provided. This circuit
compensates for poor microphone technique or a variety of
announcers, and it eliminates “blasting” in background music
applications.
Screw terminals on the rear panel allow connections to standard
speaker impedance taps, as well as connections for
70-volt balanced lines.
The amplifier operates from a
three-prong line cord provides automatic grounding when
connected to a three-wire grounded power outlet. The power line is
protected by a circuit breaker, and the output transistors by a
thermal overload device, which shuts off the unit when the
temperature of the heat sink rises excessively.

UNPACKING
The amplifier was carefully checked before leaving the factory.
Inspect shipping container and unit carefully for indications of
improper handling. If the unit has been damaged, make an
immediate claim to the distributor from whom it was purchased. If
the amplifier was shipped to you, notify the carrier without delay
and place your claim.

POWER AND GROUNDING
The ac line cord has a three-prong plug which should be plugged
into a three-wire grounded, 120 volt, 60 Hz outlet. As it is
important to ground the amplifier, where a three-wire outlet is not
available, use an adapter (e.g., Leviton No. 5017) and connect the
grounding pigtail to the screw securing the wall plate. If the wall
plate screw is not grounded, connect a wire from the GND
terminal of the amplifier to a suitable ground.
AUXILIARY POWER
CAUTION
Use the ON/OFF switch on a phonograph or
other accessory unit connected to the auxiliary
receptacle, as the power switch on the amplifer
does not control this receptacle.
The auxiliary power receptacle on the rear chassis is a three-wire
grounded outlet which can supply power to accessory equipment
in the sound system. Be sure that the accessory component does
not require more than 300 watts. The power switch does not
control this receptacle.
Associated equipment connected to the auxiliary receptacle
with a three-prong line cord will be grounded, providing the
amplifier line cord has been properly grounded.
INPUT CONNECTIONS
LOW-IMPEDANCE BALANCED MICROPHONES:
amplifier is designed for direct connection of low-impedance
balanced microphones to the MIC input receptacles of the
amplifier. The microphone lead should be a two-conductor
shielded cable terminated in a Cannon XLR312-C or
CON-2 connector, as shown in Figure 1.
CONDENSER MICROPHONES:
as for low-impedance balanced microphones.
HIGH-IMPEDANCE MICROPHONES: The
should be a singleconductor shielded cable under 35 feet in length
and terminated in a Cannon XLR312-C or
connector, as shown in Figure 1. For information regarding the
use of high-impedance microphones, see notes on the schematic
diagram.
MICROPHONE PRECEDENCE: A built-in circuit provides
microphone precedence for special announcements. A customersupplied SPST switch with normally-open contacts is required for
this function. When the contacts are closed, the auxiliary and other
microphone inputs are muted. (See
diagram and related notes.)

amplifier.
BRIDGING: Two CT-B amplifiers can be bridged together to
double the number of inputs and outputs. Connect a singleconductor shielded cable, terminated in an RCA phono plug at
each end, between the rear panel BRIDGING receptacles of the
two amplifiers. This cable should not exceed 20’in length. If more
than two amplifiers are to be bridged use a

must also be connected to each other. Any input to
either amplifier will then be fed through and available at the output
of both amplifiers. The amplifiers must each feed separate speaker
systems.
When two amplifiers are bridged together, any
adjustment of the MASTER, COMPRESSION
or Acoustic Equalizer controls in one amplifier
will not affect the output of the other amplifier.

SPEAKERS: Output connections are available on the rear panel
terminal strip for 4 (CT-lOOB), 8,16-ohm speakers, 25 volt centertapped and 70 volt lines. Connections necessary are listed in Table

furnished with the amplifiers.
TAPE OUTPUT: A tape recorder may also be driven from the
TAPE OUTPUT jack on the amplifier. In this case, the output is
not subject to the master volume and equalization settings of the
amplifier and is controlled at the tape recorder. A patch cord
terminated in an RCA phono plug is connected between the TAPE
OUTPUT jack
BOOSTER OUTPUT: The amplifier may be used to drive a
booster amplifier. Connect a patch cord with an RCA phono plug
from the BOOSTER jack on the rear pane1 of the amplifier to the
high impedence input of the booster amplifier. The output at this
jack is controlled by the amplifier’s volume and equalization
controls.
WMT-1 OUTPUT: This receptacle is used to accommodate a

accessory which provides connections to a 500/600-ohm
telephone line. (Refer to Accessories Section).
on the amplifier and the input of the tape recorder.
CONNECTING AMPLIFIERS IN SERIES
Pairs of the same amplifier models can be connected in series to
effectively double the power output into the same loadline, as well
as increase the input capacity. See Figure 3 for connection
diagram. Be certain to remove the link between COM and GND of
amplifier No. 2.
Tone and master volume controls of both amplifiers should be
at the same setting to assure that each amplifier will share the load
equally.
Connect a single conductor shielded cable, terminated in an
RCA phono plug at each end, between the rear panel BRIDGING
receptacles and BRIDGING GND terminal of both amplifiers.
This assures that any input will have equal amplification.
