Traynor AM150 Acoustic Guitar Amplifier (150 Watts, 2x8 in.)

Product Description

For over thirty-five years musicians have chosen Yorkville instrument amplifiers for their great sound and durability. Working directly with players, Yorkville engineers have learned a great deal. Conceived by players, and designed by us. Yorkville amplifiers have been known for their excellent sound, quality and value.... the Acoustic Master Series is no exception!

Unique for instrument amplifiers in this class the AcousticMaster AM150 is more micro-PA than instrument amplifier. Two 80-watt 8-inch speakers, one 60x40-degree 1.5-inch midrange horn and a piezo tweeter provide smooth even response and impressive volume. The mid frequency horn assembly is true PA loudspeaker technology, providing great definition and projection of the vital midrange frequencies that define instrument tone and character. The dual 8-inch low frequency speakers provide tight and responsive bottom end.

The AcousticMaster AM150 has 1/4-inch TRS balanced input jacks on both channels, plus an additional XLR balanced input on channel two. Channel 1 has discrete input gain control, three band EQ and notch filter. The rear panel has a mono pre-EQ XLR direct output, as well as a pair of stereo post EQ and effects 1/4-inch TRS balanced outputs. An additional effects loop is provided for maximum versatility.

Features
The AcousticMaster AM150 is a 150-watt stereo amplifier with two discrete input channels, digital effects and an XLR direct output for recording or direct feed for front of house PA. A 1/4-inch TRS balanced input jack is provided on each channel, and an additional XLR balanced input is available on channel two. Channel 1 has discrete input gain control, three band EQ and notch filter ideal for piezo pickup systems. Although the second channel's XLR input is most likely used for a vocal microphone, that input can be used as a second feed from the advanced combination pickup systems now available, or for a microphone source from non-pickup equipped acoustic instruments.

The rear panel has a mono pre-EQ XLR direct output, as well as a pair of stereo post EQ and effects 1/4-inch TRS balanced outputs. An additional effects loop is provided.
