Schertler Unico model 185 Watt Acoustic Amplifier

Schertler Unico model 185 Watt Acoustic Amplifier

UNICO is unique - the perfect amp to reproduce the sound of any acoustic instrument or voice. Every one of its components, from preamplifiers to loudspeakers, has been designed for natural and accurate response. UNICO’s circuitry is designed like the circuits found in professional-quality recording studio electronics - you will hear the difference in accuracy and precision when compared to other acoustic combo amplifiers.
UNICO has a built-in analog spring reverb designed using an innovative Class A circuit producing the smooth and musical reverb sound guitarists, violin players and others have been seeking. UNICO’s rich reverb is a sound more often found in the concert hall than in the inexpensive digital effects processors of many acoustic amplifiers.

Four inputs provide the flexibility performers have been asking for.

1. MIC IN: input for dynamic or condenser microphones, including switchable
   48v phantom power.


2. DYN IN: an input optimized for connecting microphones or other
   electrodynamic transducers having low impedance and low level. Perfect for
   Schertler DYN-Series electrodynamic transducers. Includes 10v switchable
   phantom power which allows the connection of electret condenser microphones
   such as the Schertler BLUESTiCK Marine System. Resonance control effective at
   180Hz.


3. STAT IN: a medium impedance input with optimal sensitivity for high-level
   audio signals like the Schertler BLUESTiCK undersaddle acoustic guitar pickup,
   active electric bass and guitars, and similar devices. Includes 10v switchable
   phantom power which allows the connection of the Schertler STAT-Series
   electrostatic transducers and BLUESTiCK Marine system.


4. LINE IN: a high impedance input with optimal sensitivity for high-level
   audio signals like CD players, karaoke, effects, keyboards and other types of
   transducers.
   
    

Each UNICO channel includes the following:

• Equalization, from high to low, allowing a wide range of tonal variations
  to be explored. DYN IN includes a resonance control effecting a notch cut at
  180 Hz.


• Analog spring reverb level. The classic sound of spring reverb adds warmth
  and depth to any instrument.


• Channel volume control.

UNICO’s MASTER SECTION includes:

• DI OUT: balanced output of the master signal for recording or live sound
  reinforcement - LINE OUT: unbalanced output of the master signal. This Signal
  is controlled by the master volume and may be used to drive active speakers
  such as the Schertler PUB 2/280 or bass extension PUB 1/380 (low cut engaged).


• AUX OUT: similar to the line out, but regulated separately by the AUX
  volume. For recording or monitoring.


• INSERT: a ¼” stereo jack used to connect the input and output of outboard
  signal processors or effects such as equalizers or compressors. Also used for
  the optional Schertler UNI-Pedal to control the master volume.


• LOW CUT: cuts frequencies below 150 Hz to use the UNICO with an active
  sub-woofer such as the Schertler PUB 1/380. When the LOW CUT is engaged, UNICO
  delivers mid and high frequencies while the bass extension transmits the low
  end.


• MASTER REVERB: Controls the overall system reverb level.


• MASTER VOLUME: Controls the overall system volume level.

COMPONENTS:

• 8” Woofer


• 1” Dome Tweeter


• 185 watts RMS

VOLTAGE SUPPLY:

• Switchable 110v/230v

UNICO can be used in combination with many other SCHERTLER products and accessories, such as:

SCHERTLER PUB
Schertler PUB/280: active bi-amplified system. 220 Watts RMS + 80 Watts RMS bipolar amplifiers, traditional heavy power-supplies for highest sound reproduction quality.
Schertler PUB/380: active bass extension. 450 Watts RMS drives a 10” woofer. The result is clear, dry and extremely controlled lower frequencies (linear down to 40 Hz).
