JBL VMA 260 - 60W Bluetooth-Enabled Commercial Mixer/Amplifier with 8 Inputs and 2 Outputs in Black Finish

The JBL Professional VMA260 is a powerful and versatile Bluetooth-enabled commercial mixer/amplifier, designed to meet the needs of a wide range of commercial and industrial installations, including restaurants, educational institutions, fitness centers, and retail stores. With an 8-in/2-out mixer configuration and 60 watts of output power, this amplifier provides the flexibility and performance required for multi-source mixing and amplification. It can be installed in a standard 19" equipment rack using the supplied rackmount kit or placed on a surface such as a desk or ledge, making it suitable for various installation environments.

The VMA260 offers a variety of input options, including Bluetooth wireless streaming, a USB Type-A port for playback from USB drives, as well as Euroblock, RCA, and 1/4" input jacks for connecting a range of audio devices. The integrated mixer provides full control over the audio mix, with individual level, bass, and treble adjustments for each channel. The output routing to Euroblock outputs is configurable, giving users the ability to customize the system to suit specific audio needs. The VMA260 also supports voice-activated ducking, which automatically lowers the volume during announcements, and priority muting, ensuring seamless operation in environments where announcements are frequent.

Designed for ease of use, the VMA260 features front-panel controls and a display for quick and intuitive operation. Remote volume control is also possible via the JBL CSR-V wall controller and standard Ethernet cable (both sold separately), providing added convenience for large-scale installations. With both 70V and 100V output options, as well as standard 4Ω/8Ω outputs, this amplifier can be used with a variety of speaker configurations, ensuring compatibility with different systems. The VMA260 is also equipped with paging chimes and priority muting, making it ideal for environments that require both background music and paging functionality.

In terms of audio performance, the VMA260 is engineered to provide high-quality sound with a frequency response of 20 Hz - 20 kHz (+/- 2 dB) for 4/8Ω output and 80 Hz - 15 kHz (+/- 3 dB) for 70V/100V outputs. With a total harmonic distortion (THD) of less than 0.5% and a signal-to-noise ratio greater than 76 dB (A-weighted), this amplifier ensures clear and distortion-free audio playback. The VMA260 also offers a range of input sensitivities to accommodate different types of audio sources, ensuring optimal audio quality across a variety of input devices. The amplifier operates within a temperature range of 0°C to 35°C and can be stored in conditions ranging from -20°C to 85°C, ensuring durability and reliability in diverse environments.
