Russound D250LS Amplifier 2 Channel Auto Source Switching

Russound D250LS 2-channel digital amplifier adds automatic local source switching to a multi-room audio system, making it ideal for TVs, desktops, and other room-specific audio sources.

The Russound D250LS is a compact installer-focused amplifier designed for rooms where local audio should take priority without disrupting the larger distributed system.

Its low-profile chassis, bridgeable 2-channel design, 12V trigger input, and multiple mounting options make it easy to place behind a TV, inside cabinetry, or under a shelf.
