1. Zones 100V Speaker Output Terminals

Audio outputs for 100V (Hi-Z) speakers. Connect the selected zone output to the

rst speaker in the zone using double-insulated speaker wire which has adequate

current rating to handle the total output of the amplier. Please check paragraph

“Connections Safety” on page 5 before connecting.

Connect the “H” output terminal for the selected zone to the positive (+) con-

nection of the speaker, and the “C” output to the negative (-) connection of the

speaker. Connect further speakers in parallel to the rst, with all positive terminals

connected together and all negative terminals connected together as shown

below:

ZONE1 ZONE2 ZONE3 ZONE4

C H C H H

100V



    

A 100V line speaker system can comprise many speakers connected together. The

determining factor for how many speakers can be used on a single amplier is

the power rating. For most purposes, it is advised to connect as many speakers as

needed with a combined wattage of no more than 90% of the amplier’s output

power rating (in the case of the HMX-44A, this is 60W per zone output).

Note: The terminals of a 100V speaker are connected via a transform-

er and, if necessary, this transformer may be “tapped” for different

power ratings. These tappings can be used to adjust the wattage (and

output volume) of each speaker in a zone to help achieve the ideal

total power of the system for the relevant zone output.

2. Zones 4 ohms Speaker Output Terminals

Alternatively, each zone output of the HMX-44A is capable of powering one or

more low impedance speakers. There is an option on each zone for a 4Ω speaker

output which determines the minimum impedance.

It is essential to select the correct output terminal when opting for low impedance

speakers. For a single 4Ω speaker or for 2 x 8Ω speakers connected in parallel,

connect the positive wire to the “4Ω”(+) terminal and the negative wire to ”-”.

HMX-44A PLAY Series 4X60W 4-In / 4-Out Matrix Amp with Multi-Player

WARNING: The connected load should have a combined impedance

no lower than stated on the terminal. Lower impedance may cause

irreparable damage to the amplifier. The connected speaker(s) must

also have a power handling to accept up to 30W RMS from the zone

output. Lower power handling may risk damage to the speakers.

3. Zones 1-4 Line Level Outputs (RCA)

Each Zone output has a dedicated RCA signal mono output on the rear panel,

which can be connected to the Line inputs of active speakers or ampliers. These

are in addition to the speaker outputs detailed above.

4. Line In Stereo/Mono Input (2 x RCA)

A stereo or mono unbalanced Line level source can be connected to the auxiliary

channel Line In on 2 RCA connectors (e.g. smartphone or laptop).

5. Line In Balanced Input (Euroblock)

In addition, an Euroblock Line input is provided for balanced connections. Please

pay attention to the polarity of the wires (+=Hot, -=Cold, G=ground).

6. Input 3 DIP Switches (Mic/Line + Phantom)

This Mic/Line input has 2 DIP switches: one to set the input level for the correct

type of source (Mic or Line), and the other for phantom power to use with con-

denser microphones. If the source connected is a condenser microphone which

requires phantom power, make sure that the phantom is switched on for this

channel.

ATTENTION: Always change these DIP switch settings when the

amplifier is off. Making any changes when the amplifier is powered

up may cause loud bangs through the system which can damage your

speakers.

7. Input 3 Mic/Line Input (XLR/Jack)

This combo is for the use of both XLR and 1/4” Jack balanced/unbalanced Micro-

phone or Line signals. You can connect mixers, DJ consoles, CD players, etc. The

input audio signal can be adjusted by using the volume level knob on front panel.

8. Input 2 DIP Switches (Mic/Line + Phantom)

Same as point 6 but for input 2.

HMX-44A PLAY Series

4X60W 4-In / 4-Out Matrix Amp with Multi-Player

9. Input 2 Mic/Line Input (XLR/Jack)

Same as point 7 but for input 2.

10. Input 1 DIP Switches (VOX + Phantom)

Other than the phantom power switch described in point 6, this input has also a

VOX priority switch. This switch attenuates any signal in the zones Mic input 1 is

on when signal from Mic input 1 is detected, and returns them to normal when

Mic input 1 is silent.

11. Input 1 Mic input (XLR)

This input is designed as a Page Mic input and accepts Microphone level sources

with XLR balanced plugs.

12. Call Station Input Level Control

This knob controls the input volume level of the optional 4-zone Call Station.

13. Call Station Connector (RJ45)

This connector is used for the optional addition of a 4-zone Call Station, the

HMX-MIC. The HMX-MIC Call Station comprises a base unit and a paging mi-

crophone. Connect the microphone to the XRL input on the top of the base unit.

Use a CAT-5 network cable to connect the amplier and carry power to the Call

Station.

14. 24V Emergency Mute Contacts

For buildings with a main emergency alarm panel (for re alarms etc.), the XMA-

44A has Mute contacts on the rear panel, which will mute all audio except for

channel 1 when activated by a 24V trigger voltage. This leaves channel 1 active for

evacuation announcements in the case of an emergency. The screw terminal plug

can be pulled out to make connection easier. 2-core bell wire is appropriate for

this.

15. FM Antenna Connector

Connect here the DAB+/FM antenna (included). You can also use this plug to con-

nect external antennas and increase the DAB+/FM reception sensitivity.

16. BT Antenna Connector

Connect here the BT external antenna (included) to increase the BT sensitivity.

HMX-44A PLAY Series 4X60W 4-In / 4-Out Matrix Amp with Multi-Player

17. Mains Power Input & Fuse Holder

Power connector for mains power, combined with fuse holder. Plug the power

cord (included) into an AC socket properly congured for your particular model.

Note: If you happen to lose the AC line-cord, always use a three-pin

plug with a ground pin. The wire correspondence is as follows:

Cable Pin International

Brown Live L

Blue Neutral N

Yellow/Green Earth

ATTENTION: Always connect the earth! Pay attention to your safety!

Before taking into operation for the first time, the installation has to

be approved by an expert.

In case of fuse burn, to prevent the risk of re and damaging the unit, use only

the same type of fuse that is written on the device or check paragraph “5. Speci-

cations” on page 24.

18. Ground Connection Point

Connect this terminal to the earthing system for safety reasons and to avoid

problems in case of short circuits or amplier malfunctions.
