Compatibility
The AA-120 mounts in a 19 in. rack or in Notifier CAB-3/CAB-4 Series and EQ Series cabinets; its integral chassis means a separate mounting chassis is not required. It works with classic audio systems such as the AMG-1, and with the Digital Voice Command (DVC) series when used with the DVC-AO analog audio option.
AA-120 or AA-100?
The AA-120 gives 120 watts at 25 Vrms on a single output. The AA-100 delivers up to 100 watts RMS at 70.7 Vrms on dual outputs, with combined output not to exceed 100 watts. Choose by the speaker circuit voltage in the design. The AA-30 is a 30-watt, 25 Vrms model.
