Bogen BG-MAX1R Mono Auxiliary Module
The Bogen BG-MAX1R is a mono auxiliary module designed for public address systems that require an additional unbalanced input channel. It suits installers and system integrators expanding a mixer or amplifier with a single line-level source such as a music player or paging feed.
Installation and Common Issues
The module installs by inserting it into a compatible Bogen MAX series chassis and securing the mounting screws, then connecting the source via the RCA jack. Gain, tone and ducking controls are adjusted on the front panel for proper level matching. The main difficulty is confirming chassis compatibility before purchase, as the module only fits specific Bogen frames. Incorrect gain staging can also cause distortion or insufficient ducking depth.

Questions about this item
How can I verify the BG-MAX1R module is working correctly after connecting it to my Bogen mixer?
Apply an audio source to the RCA input and adjust the Gain/Trim control until the mixer's channel meter shows a healthy signal level; then use the Bass and Treble controls to confirm tone shaping responds as expected.
What comes in the box with the BG-MAX1R and do I need any extra cables or hardware to install it?
The module itself is supplied; it plugs directly into a compatible Bogen mixer slot. You will need an RCA cable to connect your external audio source to the module's unbalanced input.
