DESCRIPTION

The Architectural Acoustics MMA™
835T is a high-quality mixer amplifier
with nine separate input channels. Each
channel provides a level control, and
the master output section features bass
and treble EQ controls (defeatable) and
special equalization contour.
The MMA 835T provides unmatched
application flexibility with an array of
optional plug-in modules, allowing each
system to be tailor-made for specialized
installations. Input modules may be
loaded in as required for varying
applications, number of input channels,
special functions, etc.
The program input includes its own
level control and is totally separate from
the other eight channels. External
signals may be patched in at this point
as a system auxiliary input or the ninth
input channel. Signals appearing at this
input are routed directly to the master
summing amplifier stage and are mixed
with signals from the other eight
channels. Systems requiring a single

input may use the program input, but
the purchase of an input module is not
necessary. The program level control
regulates the level of this input, and the
signal is routed through the system
bass and treble controls.
The power section delivers 35 watts
and includes built-in SPS™ protection,
which allows the MMA 835T to produce
full power capability without audible
power amp clipping. A broad load
impedance range is provided, and 25
and 70 volt fully isolated line outputs
are standard equipment. The MMA
835T is packaged as a stand-alone unit,
but will also rack-mount into a standard
19" rack with an optional rack-mount kit.

ARCHITECTURAL AND
ENGINEERING
SPECIFICATIONS

The mixer amplifier shall have eight
modular input channels and one
dedicated program input. The master
section shall include one master volume

level control, two EQ controls providing
10 dB of boost or cut at 100 Hz and
10 kHz, a "contour" switch providing
6 dB of boost at 100 Hz and 6 dB of
boost at 10 kHz, and a green status
LED. Internal muting shall be accom­plished at the modular level by means
of two dedicated mute lines. External
muting shall be accomplished via screw
terminals on the back panel. Provision
for an external master volume control
shall be made through barrier strip
connections on the back panel.
The unit shall be packaged in a
rugged metal chassis 17" wide by 3.5"
high by 15.5" deep. The unit shall
operate from 120 volts AC, 60 Hz
power. The internal amplifier shall be
capable of delivering 35 watts RMS into
4 ohms and 8 ohms, as well as provid­ing 25 volt and 70 volt line outputs. The
unit shall be capable of delivering rated
power from 20 Hz to 20 kHz ±1 dB into
4 ohms at its direct output at less than

0.5% distortion with system hum and

noise at least 77 dB below rated output.
The unit shall be a Peavey Architectural
Acoustics Division model MMA™

835T.
