The Rolls PM55P Stereo Monitor Amplifier with Optical Limiterfrom Rolls PM55P Stereo Monitor Amplifier with Optical Limiteris designed for performers who need to monitor their own signal, such as their vocal, with the main mix.

The unit can also be used by drummers in live sound applications who need to mix a metronome click with a monitor signal. Also, sound engineers can use the PM55P as a quick line tester to troubleshoot audio systems. The PM55P operates on either one 9 volt battery or the included PS27s power supply.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. can these two channels be bridged?

A: to the best of my knowledge, no. Basic 2 channel amp, but it does what it is supposed to do well with low distortion and dependable output levels. I used it for wired speakers on my patio, Bose, that are not that efficient, but it drives them well and cleanly. Hope this helps.

Q: 2. Can the pm351 pass through phantom power for a mic like SM7B + Cloudlifter?

A: This unit does not provide phantom power.

Q: 3. Could I run a stereo signal into this box & send that same stereo out, but allow headphone monitoring of the signal?

A: Yes, this box has a 1/4-inch input that can be switched to stereo, and has a left and right XLR line level outputs, as well as a headphone jack.

Q: 4. Is the "INST. IN" in on the Rolls PM351 a 1/4" TRS input that can accept a line-level stereo signal?

A: Yes. The instrument input on the Rolls PM351 Personal Monitor Station uses a 1/4" TRS connector that can accept instruments and line level signal. The line input also uses a 1/4" TRS connector that will accept line level. Both can be used for stereo signal by setting the corresponding mono/stereo switch for stereo input signal.

Q: 5. Will this unit take a mono signal, and send it to both L&R outputs? Or do I need to split the signal into both L&R inputs?

A: You would have to send a signal into both left and right channels to get a left and right output. The Hosa Technology RCA Female to 2 RCA Male Y-Cable - 6", B&H # HOYCRF2RM can be used at the input to bring your mono signal into the unit.

Q: 6. If I were to use this in line with the MX41 as an input to increase inputs to the monitor, would the signal from the mx41b come through ?

A: To begin with, I'm confused with your question, as you refer to an MX41, and an mx41b. Presuming that you mean the Rolls MX41B in both instances, then I am further confused by your question about whether the signal from it would come through. The more clearly you state your question, the better the rest of us can understand and offer help.That being said, there should be no problem to take the output from the MX41B into either the line input or instrument input of the Rolls PM351 and hear all the inputs from both units mixed together on the output of the PM351. It has lots of range and volume available, and is a great, clean headphone amp/mixer/direct box. You will want to pay attention to your stereo and mono cables, as well as the stereo/mono jumpers on the PM351, so you know what you are actually listening to. The MX41B is stereo, so I don't know what happens when you put a mono cable into it... it may only appear on one side of the output. Stereo/mono on the PM351 is selectable with two jumpers. Careful with those jumpers, though, they are black and small and easily lost.The quarter-inches are all unbalanced, too, so don't run those cables more than about 10 feet if you can help it. The XLR's are fine for any length, of course.Hope that helps.rcarbaugh

Q: 7. Does this meter have auto power off? i.e. will it power down automatically if not used for a while? I see an "auto off" button on the faceplate but there's no mention of this feature in the description or in the manual I found online. I'd be using this in a university lab where students forget to turn meters off so we eat a lot of batteries.

A: No this unit does not feature an auto shut off, must be turn off manually .

Q: 8. I just need to raise the level of an unbalanced signal with RCA connectors. RCA to RCA but with higher level. Can I do it with this equipment?

A: Yes, the Rolls MB15b Promatch 2-Way Stereo Converter will raise a consumer level (-10 dB) stereo RCA audio signal to a balanced, full line level (+4 dB) output signal.

Q: 9. Can i connect one cd player to three amplifiers to be used one at a time only?

A: The Rolls SS32 Mini Route 3 will not allow you to select the amplifier that is active. All three outputs will be live. You can consider however the Hosa Technology SLW-333. Just make sure to get either some rca to phone cables, or adapters; B&H# HOHPR005X2, B&H# HOAPMRF.

Q: 10. Pyle Pro PTA4 Mini 2 x 120 Watt Stereo Power Amplifier w/ AUX/CD Input B&H # PYPTA4 MFR # PTA4. CAN YOU TELL ME IS THIS A 4 OR 8 OHM AMP?

A: It is 4 ohm, but can work with 8 ohm equipment, if you believe the short manual they provide.

[9 to 15 VDC] I'm using this as a talk back headphone feed to my talent in a voice booth. I have a complicated multi-channel headphone mixer/amp that can give a whole band a custom mix, but there's no mic input. So I used to have a complicated setup just to have someone do a bit of narration or whatever. With this little box, you have a simple, functional setup where the talent and I can hear each other simply and without affecting the recording. The intended use is more likely to use this for actual program audio feed and monitor for a sound tech or boom operator. I'm sure it will work well for that and I intend to use it that way too. Nice to get multiple uses out of this box as compared to my previous devices that were so cumbersome to use, even for their intended purpose. 5

[50 Hz to 20 kHz] I play keyboards in a classic rock band and, up until now, I pretty much got buried in the audio mix. I decided to run the keyboards through the PA system with a monitor feed back to this Rolls unit and plug in my earbuds. It's got an onboard 9-volt battery, an optical limiter to protect my ears, and it's built like a tank. Great product, reasonably priced. 5

[10 Ohms] I can hear myself so much better! 5

[0 dB] I am using this device so that the singer can monitor her voice through an ear bud which means she doesn't have to have monitor close to her mic. Also, she can adjust the volume to her liking. The mic can be passed directly through or it can accept a feed from the board or both at the same time. Very cost effective for the quality and usefulness. It can use batteries or a small power adapter. My only complaint is that it uses 9 volt batteries instead of AA's which are cheaper and last longer. But, I high quality 9 volt alkaline gives us about 6 hours of use. 5

[1 lb / 450 g] Suddenly there's a safe wired in-ear monitor system for a fraction of the cost of other solutions! I called Rolls and they verified that the PM55P is a PM55 with the addition of a limiter to protect your ears from loud sounds like feedback. This is critical for replacing your boomy floor wedges with ear-buds, if you want to keep you hearing intact. It's built like a tank, has smooth dials and switches, and uses battery or an included AC adaptor. We place the PM55P on the floor instead of using the belt clip which is sort of useless. There's is a loud click when using the power button, so make sure your ear buds are out when switching on/off. The limiter works better than other's I've tried because it doesn't keep lowering the volume at every tiny louder input. Instead, this is at full volume until something seriously loud hits the unit. I think there's only one other manufacturer doing this at this price point. I picked this becuase it seems like the best all-around choice. Good Luck! 5

[1.3 lb] I was wanting to listen to my mix after it left the mixer but before it went out to our live stream, just to make sure the sound was right. I plugged this in line and it works flawlessly. I like the fact you can plug it in with the included adapter or run it with batteries. Good price point so it doesn’t break the bank. 5
