Mackie Designs continually engages in research related to product improvement. New material, 

production methods, and design refinements are introduced into existing products without notice 

as a routine expression of that philosophy. For this reason, any current Mackie Industrial product 

may differ in some respect from its published description, but will always equal or exceed the 

original design specifications unless otherwise stated. ©1999-2000 Mackie Designs Inc. All

part no. 910-160-10

The integrated power amplifier, per zone, shall be 

capable of accepting equalization modules that will 

optimize various loudspeakers offered by the unit’s 

manufacturer. It shall produce a minimum of 200W 

RMS over a range of 20Hz to 20kHz with no more 

than 0.03% distortion and drive either 70/100V con-

stant voltage lines or a constant impedance load of 

8

, without having an output transformer. It shall be 

protected from short circuit, overload conditions and 

extreme operating temperatures. Two direct, unbal-

anced line level inputs to the amplifier per zone shall 

be provided via RCA connectors on the rear panel.

An expansion bus shall be provided to send and 

receive balanced audio signals and control signals 

to other units in a multi-processor system over dis-

tances up to 2500 ft. on 25 conductor, shielded 

cable or industry standard computer cables termi-

nated with DB25 male connectors. Complete setup 

control of a multi-processor system shall be possible 

through the dip switch settings on the individual 

units and without an external processor. An internal 

industry standard RS232 port shall be included to re-

flash the unit’s firmware using software provided by 

the manufacturer.

The power supply shall be internal and connected 

to 50 or 60Hz source current through a detachable 

IEC power cord. It shall have an on/off switch, fuse 

holder. The power supply shall draw a maximum of 

5A and illuminate an indicator light when on.

The unit shall be self-contained in an aluminum 

and steel chassis that can be mounted in a standard 

19" EIA rack using no more than 3.5" of vertical 

space. The background music/paging processor 

shall be a model SP2400 manufactured by Mackie 

Industrial.

Architects’ & Engineers’ Specs (continued)

optional remote controls. A three-wire remote con-
trol bus allows connection of up to 10 addressable 
remotes on one pair of shielded microphone cable. 
Each remote can be set to control either of the two 
channels.

The output section of the SP2400 offers two dis-

crete amplifiers, each delivering 200 watts of RMS 
power into either 70/100Volt line or into 8

 loads. 

The transformerless design of the amplifiers allows 
frequency response to 20Hz, without the distortion 
and losses typical of conventional designs. The two 
amplifiers may be operated independently as two 
zones, or as one stereo amplifier.

All of the SP2400’s functions are under micro-

processor control and management.  An RS485 port 
is provided on the rear panel to allow interconnec-
tion with industry-standard control systems. Up to 
eight SP2400 units may be interconnected, to share 
four music sources and control data.

This Mackie Industrial product is covered by an 

exclusive, one-time NO FAULT repair policy in addi-
tion to a three-year limited warranty.
