The sub-PARC *

A crossover, parametric eq, and digital amplifier in one.

A more intelligent way to deal with subwoofers.

What if you had a pair of monitors and wanted to add a sub-woofer in a small room? One with known problematic room modes. The sub-woofer could create as many problems as it solved. Now, with the sub-PARC, you can add a passive sub-woofer with no worries. The sub-PARC uses the same parametric filter from the award wining PARC. But there's more--much more.

What if you had your music system and home theater combined? What if you wanted one crossover point for your subwoofer for music but wanted to use the LFE channel for movies? The sub-PARC has you covered. With a 12 volt trigger it will automatically switch into home theater mode, bypassing the crossover and using the LFE channel. When the trigger is off it uses the crossover and the saved parameters for music. Smart.

Finally the 1000 watt amplifier is capable of driving just about anything. And should you find that you need more power, or just something different there is a low pass output, so you can bipass the amplifier section altogether.

There really is no comparison to the sub-PARC. With the flexible crossover, digitally controlled (but analog based) parametric eq, and a digital amplifier every music lover and home theater enthusiast could use one, or maybe 2.
