MPA 401-70V Description
The Extron MPA 401-70V integrated Mini Power Amplifier provides mono
amplification for speaker systems that require compact and economical audio
solutions. The MPA 401 accepts balanced or unbalanced, stereo or mono inputs
and provides a summed mono output. It delivers up to 40 watts (rms) for a high-
impedance, 70 V distributed sound system.
Front panel controls allow easy adjustment of bass and treble volume and input
level. Volume and muting can be controlled remotely by the Extron VCM 100,
VC 50, or MLA VC 10.
It features high efficiency, advanced Class D amplifier design with advanced
CDRS™ (Class D Ripple Suppression) technology that eliminates EMI emissions and
interference with sensitive A/V equipment. The design allows the amplifier to be
fanless and operate in environments with little or no ventilation. The MPA 401-70V
meets UL 2043 for smoke and fire code for above--the-ceiling installations.

MPA 401-70V • Introduction
1-2
MPA 401-70V Features
Patented CDRS™ (Class D Ripple Suppression) — CDRS is an Extron patented
technology that eliminates high frequency switching ripple and EMI
emissions found in all Class D amplifiers. CDRS dramatically improves
audio performance over conventional Class D amplifier designs and enables
Extron power amplifiers to be situated near wireless A/V devices without RF
interference.
UL 2043 plenum rated — The MPA 401-70V meets UL 2043 for smoke and heat
release for installation within a plenum airspace above a drop ceiling. Above-
the-ceiling placement conceals the amplifier to prevent theft and is convenient
for installing equipment when space inside the room is limited.
Although the amplifier is plenum rated, the power supply provided with it
is not. The power supply must not be placed in the plenum space. If the
amplifier is placed in a plenum space, all cables to and from it must also be
plenum rated.
C
Balanced and unbalanced buffered audio inputs — The MPA 401-70V amplifier
accepts balanced or unbalanced, stereo or mono audio input signals on a
captive screw connector, and unbalanced audio on both RCA connectors and a
3.5 mm stereo mini jack.
The MPA 401-70V amplifier mixes all right channel inputs to a single signal and
all left channel inputs to a second signal. The right signal and left signal are then
summed to produce a mono signal.
N
The three stereo inputs are individually buffered and can be connected to three
separate sources at the same time without altering performance.
Quick-plug speaker outputs — Speaker output is on a 5 mm screw lock captive
screw connector for quick installation.
ENERGY STAR® Qualified Amplifier — The MPA 401-70V amplifier is an
ENERGY STAR qualified amplifier and energy efficient product that conserves
energy and reduces costs.
Auto-standby with fast power up — automatically places the amplifier into
standby after 25 minutes of inactivity. It quickly returns to full power status
in less than one second upon signal detection. The amplifier consumes just 6
watts when idle and less than 1 watt in standby mode.
Front panel bass, treble, and input level controls — Bass, treble, and input level
are easily adjusted from the front panel.
Fanless design — The MPA 401 does not require fans or vents for cooling, ensuring
quiet, reliable operation.
Automatic clip limiter — Detects actual onset of clipping by comparing input
and output waveforms. Gain is automatically reduced with a slow attack and
fast release to eliminate clipping. This advanced limiter design protects the
speakers from clipping distortion and offers superior sonic characteristics
compared to limiters that use signal compression.
Remote volume and mute control port — A rear panel, three-pin captive screw
remote input connector allows remote adjustment of volume and muting. In
basic installations without third-party control systems, this port allows the
MPA 401 to be remotely controlled using the optional Extron VCM 100 analog
volume and mute controller or VC 50 analog volume controller.
Compact size — The 1U, quarter rack width, 6" deep metal enclosure, offers
flexible mounting options.
External universal power supply included (part # 70-725-01) — provides
worldwide power compatibility.

The length of the exposed wires in the stripping process is critical. The ideal
length is 3/16 inches (5 mm). Any longer and the exposed wires may touch,
causing a short circuit between them. Any shorter and the wires can be easily
pulled out even if tightly fastened by the captive screws.
N

Do not tin the wires. Tinned wire does not hold its shape and can become loose
over time.

RCA jack plugged into the left/mono socket).

screw-lock captive screw connector.
OUTPUT
The three left channel inputs (RCA, TRS and captive screw) are
summed to form Left Sum, with weightings proportional to
their respective sensitivities. Similarly the three right channel
inputs are summed to form a Right Sum. Left Sum and Right
Sum are mixed and amplified to provide one high voltage,
70V
mono output, which provides up to 40 W for a 70 V line distributed sound system.
Do not short the + and - outputs to each other or to the ground ( ) as this
will damage the amplifier.

Adjust the MPA 401-70V input level as follows:
1. If necessary, unplug the remote plug from the
unit.
MPA 401
MINI POWER AMPLIFIER
2. If connecting the amplifier to a system
with adjustable volume, set the volume
to its lowest point. Then adjust the MPA 401-70V level potentiometer fully
counterclockwise to its minimum setting.
3. Set the system volume to its maximum level. No sound should come out.
4. Slowly increase the MPA 401-70V level until sound distortion starts to occur.
Lower the level slightly until the distortion disappears. This setting ensures
that, whatever the system volume setting may be, no clipping occurs.
Setting Bass and Treble
Adjust the MPA 401-70V bass and treble as follows:
1. Use the bass potentiometer to increase or decrease the bass shelving 10 dB at
100 Hz and below.
2. Use the treble potentiometer to increase or decrease the treble shelving 10 dB
at 10 kHz and above.
Turning the bass or treble potentiometers counter clockwise will decrease the
output at the specified frequencies. Turning the potentiometers clockwise will
increase the output. When the potentiometer is at the center detent, flat response
is achieved.

Plenum Placement
The MPA 401-70V amplifier meets UL 2043 requirements for heat and smoke
release. It can be installed in the ceiling, out of sight, with reduced risk of theft.
Although the amplifier is plenum rated, the power supply provided with it
is not. The power supply must not be placed in the plenum space. Cables
to and from the amplifier must also be plenum rated.

Tabletop Placement
Attach the four provided rubber feet to the bottom of the unit and place it in any
convenient location.

UL guidelines for rack mounting
The following Underwriters Laboratories (UL) guidelines are relevant to the safe
installation of this product in a rack:
1. Elevated operating ambient temperature — If the unit is installed in a closed
or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack
environment may be greater than room ambient temperature. Therefore, install
the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient
temperature (TMA: +122 °F, +50 °C) specified by Extron.
2. Reduced air flow — Install the equipment in the rack so that the equipment
gets adequate air flow for safe operation.
3. Mechanical loading — Mount the equipment in the rack so that uneven
mechanical loading does not create a hazardous condition.
4. Circuit overloading — Connect the equipment to the supply circuit and
consider the effect that circuit overloading might have on overcurrent
protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of the equipment
nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
5. Reliable earthing (grounding) — Maintain reliable grounding of
rack-mounted equipment. Pay particular attention to supply connections other
than direct connections to the branch circuit (such as the use of power strips).

Rack mounting procedure
The unit can be mounted on any of these optional rack systems:
RSU 126 — 6" deep 1U universal rack shelf kit (part # 60-190-10)
RSB 126 — 6" deep 1U basic rack shelf (part # 60-604-11)
RSU 129 — 9.5" deep 1U universal rack shelf kit (part # 60-190-01)
RSB 129 — 9.5" deep 1U basic rack shelf (part # 60-604-02)
To mount the scaler on a rack shelf, follow the instructions provided with the shelf
accessories.
Use only the two holes indicated in the diagram below for mounting the
MPA 401. The other four holes anchor stand-offs for the internal circuit
boards; using them may damage the amplifier and will not provide secure
mounting for the unit.
