TOA Electronics BG‑220 Mixer Amplifier – 20W, 3‑Input Compact BGM/Paging Amplifier

Mixer Amplifier – BG-220

The TOA BG‑220 is a compact 20 W, three‑input mixer amplifier designed for background music (BGM) playback and general announcements in commercial environments such as bars, retail stores, and banquet rooms. With its MOH (Music‑on‑Hold) output, the BG‑220 can operate as part of a 2‑channel broadcast system when paired with optional booster amplifiers such as the BA‑235 (35 W) or BA‑260 (60 W).

Key Features

• Rear DIP Switch Configuration: Easily adjust features such as input assignment, muting behavior, and Mic/Line level selection.
• Three Line Inputs: Input 1 is Mic/Line selectable; Inputs 2 and 3 include both terminal block and RCA connections.
• Recessed Tone Controls: Bass and treble knobs are tamper‑proof to maintain consistent system performance.
• Auto/Manual Mute Function: Includes adjustable muting sensitivity for paging priority or signal‑triggered ducking.
• Zone 2 & MOH Support: Enables 2‑channel broadcast and expansion when used with BA‑200 Series booster amplifiers.
