RS 1000 and RS 500 home subwoofer amplifiers: common use diagrams.

The AudioControl RS1000 and RS 500 DSP controlled subwoofer amplifiers are the ultimate bass amplification solution for any home theater, multi-zone audio system, or for a 2.1 channel music system. (RS 500 available now, RS 1000 coming soon).

The RS series amplifiers deliver a constant power output of 500 or 1000 watts at 8/4/2 Ohms and offer IP and IR control, web based setup menus, balanced XLR and unbalanced RCA loop outputs with an optional high-pass filter, graphic and parametric EQ, crossover, delay, and phase control. See the product manual for more information.
