The Polsen PMA-1 is a personal monitoring amplifier offering coloration-free signal amplification for vocalists and musicians in studio, live stage, and mobile-recording applications. It allows an artist to adjust the blend of their own microphone and monitor levels via easy-to-use gain/volume controls. Setup is straightforward; hook up a mono or stereo line-level source to the 1/4" TRS monitor input, and plug in your preferred headphones to the 1/4" or 3.5mm stereo headphone jack. A mono/stereo switch is provided to enable proper routing of a single- or dual-channel input to both sides of your headphones. Connect a microphone such as a dynamic, ribbon, or condenser mic into the balanced XLR input, then connect the balanced XLR thru jack to a mixing console or mic preamp; any phantom power sent from your mic preamp will pass unimpeded to your microphone. This allows convenient "more me" functionality without inhibiting the creative workflow. All-analog circuitry ensures zero-latency monitoring and microphone throughput. In the event of hum from a ground loop, flip the ground-lift switch for noise-free monitoring. The PMA-1 features a compact, sturdy enclosure for reliable use on and off the road, and includes a 12 VDC power supply.
