Further information for RCS Audio-Systems ME-1A - Preamplifier module 1U
The ME-1A module carrier is a compact and highly flexible solution for professional audio setups. Taking up just one rack unit (1U), it accommodates up to two AM-series input modules, which can be freely combined depending on the application. Ideal for use in installations where space-saving and signal prioritization are key.
On the rear panel, each module features a dedicated stereo L/R RCA output, plus an additional priority output. This output automatically gives precedence to Module 2 (right slot); when playback on Module 2 stops, the signal switches seamlessly to Module 1 – making it perfect for automatic source switching, such as for emergency messages or prioritized announcements.
In addition to audio connections, the unit includes a 75-ohm antenna input for radio modules and a stereo record-in input. The ME-1A supports both AC mains power (230 V) and a 24 V DC backup power source, ensuring reliable operation even during outages. It can be rack-mounted in a 48,3 cm ( 19 inch ) system or used as a standalone tabletop device.
