Instruction Manual

Edition 08-2019

Introduction

Thank you for purchasing TAGA Harmony amplier.

The TCA series ampliers are perfect solution for commercial installations in restaurants, pubs,

shops, conferencing rooms, tness clubs for both background music playback and paging (voice

announcement) systems.

This amplier allows to build a cost-e󰀨ective multi-zone installation and mix music from analog

inputs with voice announcements.

A variety of features and wired connections makes this amplier a very versatile device with ability

to work in di󰀨erent applications:

• Multi-zone mono amplication for 100V speaker lines to deliver sound to many rooms (zones);

with an independent volume level.

• Multiple analog LINE inputs mixing.

• Compatibility with low-impedance speakers (selected models).

• Microphone input(s) with mixing for voice paging and broadcasting.

• Microphone input with priority (selected models).

• Chime to notify that a voice announcement is to be broadcasted (selected models).

• Treble / Bass regulation (one for all zones).

• Mono output to connect additional power amplier, subwoofer or powered speakers (selected

models).

• Signal and overload indicators.

• Cooling fan allows long time operation.

• Screw-in Speaker Connectors.

IMPORTANT REMARKS

Please read this instruction manual carefully before installation and keep it for future

reference.

• This amplier is intended for indoor use only.

• Because the 70V/100V technology requires adequate technical knowledge we

recommend having a licensed professional engineer or designer reviewed the design

and installation of the system focusing on safety and performance of the application.

• Model name coding TCA-###V.

◊ TCA - is the series name

◊ ### - is a number representing amplier total output power in watts

◊ V – means high voltage technology

For instance: TCA-240V is a high-voltage amplier with the total output power of 240

watts.

• This amplier is equipped in a ventilation fan which can generate noise – this is

normal operation.

• When switching on and o󰀨 your audio equipment, turn down the volume to avoid

strong electrical impact to be delivered to the speaker.

Cleaning

Do not use strong or abrasive cleaners. Use a dry, soft cloth for cleaning.

Rack installation

This amplier is designed for installation in a 482mm (19”) width rack unit as well as can be used

as a tabletop amplier.

In the rack the amplier requires a space of 2 RS (2 rack spaces = 89mm).

• Hold the amplier by the handles in position and secure it in the rack with the four mounting

bolts (insert them in the rack mount holes).

• The mounting bolts alone may be not su󰀩cient for xing the amplier safely. We recommend to

use additional lateral rails or a bottom plate to secure the amplier in the rack.

Note! To prevent the rack from becoming top-heavy insert the amplier into the lower section

of the rack.

Note! Make sure that the hot air is dissipated from the rack – otherwise you may damage the

amplier and/or other equipment installed in the rack – this will void your warranty.

Speaker Connection

The Speaker Connectors can accommodate up to 10AWG speaker cables. A 10AWG

cable is recommended for longer connections (longer than 20 meters / 66 feet). For

shorter lengths you can use 12/14 or 18 AWG cables. It is recommended to leave

about 150 cm (5 feet) of extra cable at the amplier end to facilitate positioning and

installation of the amplier. Do not use staples, nails or other metal objects to secure

the cables. You will get the best sound quality and least amount of hum by keeping the

cables away from other electrical wires and cables.

WARNING!

• Before connecting the speaker make sure that the amplier is switched o󰀨 -

otherwise you may damage the amplier and/or the speakers and void your warranty.

• Avoid to short-circuit of cables – it may damage the amplier and/or the speakers

and void your warranty.

Connection modes

This amplier can be connected to 100V or 70V speakers [100V or 70V mode] or low-

impedance speakers [low-impedance mode].

WARNING!

Never connect 100V and 70V and low-impedance speakers simultaneously - it may

damage the amplier and/or the speakers and void your warranty. Connect and use

only one type of speakers (100V or 70V or low-impedance speakers) at the same time.

100V or 70V mode – connection

WARNING!

• Make sure to use a 100V or 70V speaker for this mode - otherwise it may damage

the amplier and/or the speakers and void your warranty.

• Make sure that the total wattage of all connected speakers will not exceed the output

power of this amplier [check technical specications on the

www.tagaharmony.com website] - otherwise you may damage the amplier and/or

the speakers and void your warranty.

• 70V connection is not available for the ZONE OUTPUTS.

100V connection - using speaker cables connect 100V amplier speaker connector to

the 100V power input speaker terminal of your speaker (usually marked as 100V or

in RED color or +) and COM amplier speaker connector to the common input of your

speaker (usually marked as COM or in BLACK color or -).

70V connection - using speaker cables connect 70V amplier speaker connector to

the 70V power input speaker terminal of your speaker (usually marked as 70V or in

RED color) and COM amplier speaker connector to the common input of your speaker

(usually marked as COM or in BLACK color).

Speaker Connection

Low-impedance mode – connection

WARNING! Make sure that your speaker is suitable to work and is compatible with

the amplier working impedance - otherwise you may damage the amplier and/or the

speakers and void your warranty.

The low-impedance output is marked with Ω sign (usually 8Ω or 6Ω or 4Ω). Choose this

output if you intend to use a low-impedance speaker.

Pay attention to connecting the polarity of the speaker wire terminals correctly with the

amplier speakers connectors (RED + in the speaker with the output marked with Ω

the amplier).
