RCF DMA-162 Overview

Business Music Made Easy
When you need powerful audio amplification for commercial installations without the usual complications, look to the DMA 162 from RCF, a two-channel, dual 160W class-D matrix amplifier equipped for 4- / 8-ohm loads or hi-Z 70V power distribution, and featuring powerful internal DSP processing with easily managed I/O via the bright OLED display. With dedicated presets for RCF speakers, it ensures uniform and optimal audio quality for your entire system, and the DMA 162 supports scalable, multi-room architectures for nearly any requirement.

The DMA 162 sports comprehensive I/O for numerous audio inputs and outputs, remote devices, control accessories (including wireless smart devices via an optional add-on), paging, and an RJ45 port, four-channel analog audio output that can be sent to a DMA 162P. This matrix amplifier is easily desktop mounted on a wide range of surfaces, but can also be rack mounted with an optional mounting kit (RM-Kit DMA) for integration into existing rack setups.

DMA Series
The DMA 162 sports class-D amplifiers equipped with a powerful DSP platform, allowing managing inputs and outputs in terms of routing and equalization. A complete set of processing functions is available, including speaker presets, proprietary bass enhancer algorithm, FIR filters, and environmental equalization. Thanks to its extremely compact size, accurate design, and robustness, it is ideal for a wide range of applications.
Comprehensive I/O
The DMA 162 is well-equipped to handle connections to a plethora of controllers and paging accessories as well as secondary amplifiers and more. Common Euroblock and RCA I/O makes even complex setups hassle-free.

  • Euroblock connections for dual balanced outputs, remote inputs, balanced mic/line in, mute
  • RJ45 for analog audio bus output and BM 404 paging mics
  • Unbalanced RCA I/O, including filtered low-pass signal specifically for subwoofers
  • Extra 3.5mm TRS Aux input on front panel for easy playback of external signals with system
Full Onboard Processing
This amplifier is equipped with a powerful DSP platform, integrating RCF proprietary technologies such as FiRPHASE, a FiR filtering technology, and BASS ENHANCER, a sophisticated algorithm that increases low-frequencies perception without affecting the output power. And with a wide frequency response of 20 Hz to 20 kHz, you will always get natural sound that remains faithful to the source.
Speakers Presets
Pre-loaded presets, to optimize the performance and equalization of any RCF speaker and to have the right RCF signature sound. Scroll through numerous presets for specific RCF speakers using the intuitive interface and assign presets per output.
Easy and Flexible Configuration
RCF Business Music products are ready to use in few steps, even faster when connected to the RDNet networked management. The simple knob scrolling interface and bright OLED display make it easy to run through numerous settings in no time.
DMA Connect App
The DMA Connect app provides wireless control of RCF DMA Series Business Music amplifiers. With its functionality and user-friendly interface, it allows access to DMA settings such as: input and output levels, equalizers, routing, speaker preset selection, device information, and real-time VU-meters. Advanced settings for expert users are also available, including customizable names for input, outputs, and devices.
Note:
This feature requires the optional BT Board DMA accessory, which is sold separately.
Application Examples
Some of the common applications for the DMA 162 system include:

  • Small and large retail spaces
  • Meeting rooms
  • Bars, pubs, and restaurants 
  • Multi-room clubs
  • Supermarkets
  • Fitness centers
RCF RDNet
RDNet is a robust management network and control platform for small, medium, and large arena-sized sound systems as well as complex and extended installations. Based on a proprietary network protocol, RDNet provides intuitive control and monitoring of every connected device/object in the RCF audio system.

Each device has DSP to address specific presets or modifications of parameters to single or groups of objects. A network user can change level, delay, EQ (linear phase FiR as well), and other settings, including advanced subwoofer configurations. RDNet is not only designed for loudspeakers—you can control parameters and routing of multiple RCF devices, such as digital matrixes or amplifiers.
