Product Overview
Vocia is Biamp's networked paging and background music platform, and the VA-2060e is its two-channel amplifier at 60 W RMS per channel. Audio reaches it over CobraNet through two rear RJ-45 jacks for redundant connectivity, or through a local analog input on each channel. Each transformer-coupled output is set by its own rear dial for a 4 or 8 Ω load or a 25V, 70V or 100V line.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can one channel run a 70V line while the other drives 8Ω speakers?
Yes. Each output has its own Load Select dial, so the two channels are set separately.
Is it EN 54-16 certified?
Yes. The VA-2060e is EN 54-16 certified.
Does it need a 24V DC supply to run?
No. It runs on 100-240VAC, 50/60Hz mains. The 24V DC auxiliary inputs serve redundant operation, and no DC supply comes with it.
Is anything missing from this amplifier?
Yes. Three terminal plugs are missing, and no manuals or accessories are included. It is used, pulled from a working decommissioned system, and it powers on; no testing went past power-up. Flat-rate shipping in the lower 48, and orders over the free-shipping line ship free.
Each channel has its own load dial, running from 4Ω up to 100V. Three plugs left with the old system; both dials stayed.
