  • Page 4 Introduction Rockville is proud to introduce our new RCS series of products. The RCS180-6 is a 180- Watt 6-zone rack mountable digital hybrid amplifier/receiver. This amplifier is capable of 70-volt, 100-volt, 8-ohm, and 4-ohm applications. This makes it perfect for use in a restaurant/bar/cafe/lounge/school/conference room or any other setting where many speakers are needed.
  • Page 5 What is 70 Volt? 70-volt systems are the number one choice for any application where you want to install multiple speakers. With 70 volt there are a lot of advantages over 8-ohm systems. One of the main advantages is the simplicity of the wiring as well as how easy it is to match up speakers with the amplifier.

    Output Configurations The RCS180-6's 70V and 100V connections can be set up in a variety of ways. Please note that utilizing direct speaker connections and speaker zone connections simultaneously is not recommended and will cause damage to the amplifier and the speakers.
  • Page 10 Output Configurations {continued) for any one zone does not exceed 100 watts and the overall total output of the zones does not exceed 180 watts. As with the direct outputs, best practice is to allow for about 10 - 20% "head room" or extra power. So, the total output power of the speakers connected to any one zone should not exceed 80 - 90 watts, and the total power output of all the zones combined should not exceed 150 -160 watts.
  • Page 11 70V/100V Direct Speaker (Binding Post Terminals) You may connect any number of speakers to the 70 or 100-volt direct speaker output binding posts as long as the total wattage does not exceed 180 watts. Best practice is to allow for about 10 - 20% "head room" or extra power to handle any unusual amp requirements such as a deep bass note or a booming finale.
  • Page 12 4 to 16-0hm Direct Speaker Output (Binding Post Terminals) You can connect two speakers to this terminal as long as the final impedance does not fall below 4 ohms. Although it is possible to connect more than two speakers to these terminals, it is not recommended.
  • Page 13 In-Wall Volume Controls Although the RCS180-6 offers individual zone volume controls, there may be occasions when you may want to adjust the volume of a specific zone without having to return to the amplifier. In-wall volume controls are the perfect solution and they are relatively easy to set up.
