Clients who come to Perfectionist Auto Sound & Security in search of upgrades to their audio systems trust our expertise and experience to give them the best value and performance for their dollar. To make the biggest improvement to the performance of a factory audio system, we like to start by adding a subwoofer and an amplifier. One amplifier that has risen above the rest to offer excellent performance and value is the new Audison SR 5.
Design
The SR 5 is a single-chassis five-channel amplifier rated to produce 55 watts per channel from the four main channels and 185 watts from the subwoofer channel when loaded to four ohms. When the load is two ohms, power output increases to 70 and 260 watts respectively. The amplifier features high-pass crossovers for the front channels and high- or band-pass crossovers for the rear channels. The subwoofer channel includes a variable low-pass crossover, and the output level can be adjusted remotely with an optional Audison VCRA remote control.
Physical Characteristics
The chassis of the SR 5 is formed out of dense aluminum for maximum heat dissipation. The amp measures 19 11/16 inches long and is 8 7/16 inches deep and only 2 1/8 inches tall. All of the connections are made along the bottom edge of the amplifier, including RCA and speaker-level inputs, power connections, and speaker outputs. The controls for the amplifier are just above the connections and are protected by a removable cover. This cover gives the amp a clean look once it’s installed and tuned.
Musicality
The SR 5 features Audison’s DYNAB output device circuitry. DYNAB controls the bias current to the outputs to balance sound quality and efficiency by shifting dynamically between conventional AB biasing and the efficiency of Class B operation. The result is smooth, natural sound with good efficiency and reliability.
