Lab Gruppen LUCIA 60/2M Compact Matrix Amplifier for Installations (2 x 30W) - LUCIA60/2M

Product Overview

The Lab Gruppen LUCIA 60/2M is a 2-channel, 60W matrix installation amplifier for small commercial AV spaces requiring source routing at the amplifier without external matrix hardware. Delivering 2x30W with an integrated 4x4 mix-matrix, it is suited to huddle rooms, small conference rooms, and training rooms with modest speaker loads and two or more audio input sources. The LUCIA 60/2M follows Lab Gruppen's decentralized amplification philosophy, placing processing and amplification adjacent to the speaker load.

Product Description

The LUCIA 60/2M is the entry-level matrix amplifier in the LUCIA series, combining 2x30W of Class-D output power with a 4x4 integrated mix-matrix in a compact half-rack enclosure. It is designed for the smallest category of commercial AV rooms — huddle spaces, small conference rooms, and ancillary training areas — where multiple source inputs need to be managed at the amplifier but total acoustic output requirements are modest. The 4x4 matrix routes up to four inputs (two balanced Euroblock and two unbalanced RCA) to two amplified output channels with configurable gain per path, handling input selection and mixing that would otherwise require a standalone DSP or matrix switcher. Onboard DSP includes equalization, automatic dynamic loudness contouring, and auto load sense for automatic speaker protection. A balanced line output enables signal pass-through to additional zones or a downstream amplifier, and the 6-pin GPIO block connects to room control systems for external muting or triggering. The included wall-mount bracket supports concealed installation behind displays or inside millwork; rack integration uses the optional LUCIA-RACKKIT. As part of Lab Gruppen's LUCIA decentralized platform, the 60/2M eliminates long audio cable runs from a central rack, reduces infrastructure cost, and scales well across multi-room commercial AV installations.

Key Features

• Integrated 4x4 Mix-Matrix — Manages up to four audio input sources routed to two output channels at the amplifier, replacing a standalone matrix processor in small room installations.
• 2x30W Class-D Output — 60W total across two channels into 2, 4, 8, or 16 ohm loads; suited to small speaker loads in huddle rooms and compact conference spaces.
• Built-in DSP — Onboard equalization and dynamics processing reduces external hardware in the signal path.
• Auto Load Sense — Detects connected speaker impedance and automatically calibrates the variable power limiter for speaker protection.
• Balanced Line Output — Passes a processed line-level signal to additional zones or downstream amplifiers for multi-zone scalability.
• GPIO Control Block — 6-pin GPIO I/O for integration with control systems, enabling remote muting, triggering, or level management.
• Configuration Wizard — Guided setup reduces commissioning time across multi-room commercial deployments.
• Half-Rack Compact Enclosure — Concealed installation behind displays or in millwork; rack-mountable in pairs using the optional LUCIA-RACKKIT.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is 2x30W sufficient for a huddle room?

A: For small huddle rooms and compact conference spaces with one or two ceiling or wall speakers, 2x30W provides adequate output for speech intelligibility and background audio. For rooms larger than approximately 200 square feet or with multiple speakers, consider the LUCIA 120/2M or LUCIA 240/2M.

Q: What is the 4x4 matrix used for in a small room?

A: Even in small rooms, multiple audio sources are common — a videoconferencing bar, a laptop HDMI audio output, and a wireless presenter receiver, for example. The 4x4 matrix allows these to be mixed or selected at the amplifier, eliminating the need for a separate matrix switcher or external DSP device.

Q: Can the line output feed another amplifier for zone expansion?

A: Yes. The balanced line output provides a processed signal that can feed another LUCIA amplifier or any line-level input, making it useful for installations where a secondary zone needs to follow the same source as the primary room.

Q: Does the LUCIA 60/2M support 70V speakers?

A: No. It is a low-impedance amplifier. For 70V distributed audio systems, use the LUCIA 60/1-70.

Q: What is the warranty on the LUCIA 60/2M?

A: Lab Gruppen provides a 5-year limited warranty on the LUCIA 60/2M.
