12 Channel Amplifier
Installation Instructions v1.2
Warning
: To be installed and/or used in accordance with appropriate
electrical codes and regulations.
Description:
The MA1250 is a member of the long line of Knoll multi-
channel amplifiers. Designed primarily for the custom install industry, it
is used to power speakers with different or similar sources in multiple
rooms. With 12 channels rated at 50 watts per channels at 8 ohms, the
MA1250 packs some serious punch. Each channel has a gain control.
The MA1250 can be turned on and off via the front panel power switch
or via the 12 VDC trigger. MA1250 channels 3-12 can be linked to
channel 1-2 individually using the link switches. MA1250 amplifiers
designed to meet the amplifier needs of custom installed systems
where high-quality sound is a specific requirement.

Key Features:
1. Size efficiency.
The MA1250 consists of a total of 12 power
amplifiers in one 3-1/2” high enclosure. Each power amplifier
channel can deliver 50 watts RMS into an 8-ohm load.
2. Automatic protection circuitry.
Each MA1250 channel is
individually and fully protected against low impedance,
overheating, overloading, overvoltage and undervoltage. The
protection circuitry automatically restores the amplifier channel
as soon as its parameter returns to the safe operating area.
3. Individual input gain adjustment.
Each channel features
an input gain adjustment pot to adjust each channel for gain
and speaker sensitivity variations. The gain adjustments are on
the rear of the MA1250 so installers normally set the gain.
Note:
Specifications subject to change without notice.
4. External power on/off.
The MA1250 can be turned off and
on by external controllers. To activate external power on, apply
a 12 VDC current to the trigger jack (the MA1250 power switch
is in the off position for external power control).
5. Stackable 17" chassis.
6. Link Feature.
Certain installations require that some or all of
the stereo channels play the same content. Instead of using Y
cords, "link" cascades any or all of channels 2-6 to channel 1
(l/r).
