Powerful and Packed with Technology

Simply the most advanced subwoofer amplifiers in car audio today! The Epicenter® 600 and 1200 amplifiers incorporate AudioControl's patented Bass Restoration Processor to deliver earth-shaking, ground pounding and chest thumping power to your subwoofer system. Carefully applied signal processing at just the right spot, enhances the listening experience and maximizes your bass quality. Today's amplifiers are difficult to separate from one another, The Epicenter® 600 and 1200 have done so in ground breaking fashion with their unparalleled processing power. In a real-world listening environment, we invite you to compare these amplifier to any other amplifier in the same power category, at any price, and you will quickly learn that the Epicenter amplifiers will always have more bass! It's time to hear what you have been missing.

AudioControl's engineering team designed the amplifier from the ground up, to deliver superb performance and high-fidelity sound. The chassis is made up of a solid one piece aluminum chassis that helps to evenly distribute heat. A black brushed aluminum cover protects the bank of controls that make the amplifier so special. On the processing end, these amplifiers have active high level inputs - taken from the world famous LC2i - to optimize the audio signal going to the amp, and Maximum Input Level Control - MILC - to optimize the signal delivered from the amp.




The

Put Life Back Into Your Music

The Epicenter amplifier is not a cold heartless box for increasing the loudness of bass frequencies in your system. It restores the bass frequencies to how they were meant to be. It is a bass-frequency re-enactor. Your favorite music will come alive and breath, and live again.


The

An Amp That Protects Itself

AudioControl's engineering department designed these amplifiers from the ground up. They feature a black brushed aluminum finish, with black powder-coated cast alloy heat sinks and bottom panel in one single piece. A black-brushed aluminum cover finishes off the sleek design.
