Available now, the DLC-250.4 is a flexible and powerful half-rack amplifier/controller solution for any residential or commercial distributed audio application. 

Lake Forest, CA – September 27, 2022 – Premium audio brand, Theory Audio Design, is now shipping its DLC-250.4 distribution loudspeaker controller and will demonstrate it at CEDIA Expo 2022. Ideal for any residential or commercial installation where distributed audio is desired, each DLC-250.4 offers 4-channels of intelligent power, a full DSP matrix, and is TCP/IP controlled through a wired connection, or directly via its on-board Wi-Fi access point.

The DLC-250.4 is designed to be at the core of every Theory distributed audio system. With channel-pair power sharing of up to 250W, each DLC-250.4 offers the flexibility to power any system size. Via its configurable outputs, the DLC-250.4 can power up to 16 Theory 16-ohm ceiling or pendant loudspeakers in Lo-Z mode, and up to 64 Theory architectural speakers in Hi-Z mode – or an optimal hybrid of both or in any quantity in between. This feature is especially beneficial in commercial spaces like bars, restaurants, retail environments, fitness centers, and spas where a combination of power, from quiet background to loud foreground audio, is required.

In hotels, education facilities, and corporate environments where there are multiple rooms of varying sizes, the DLC-250.4 offers complete flexibility in terms of available power. The S/PDIF master/slave functionality allows multiple DLCs to be used to cover all these needs and each loudspeaker controller only takes up a half rack space. House of Worship requires reliable, high-quality amplification of voice, while also covering a large distribution area with many specialized speakers. The DLC-250.4 is up for the challenge, providing high-quality amplification and superior speech intelligibility throughout large spaces. For home cinema and surround sound systems, a single DLC-250.4 is also perfect for 3.1 systems (and larger if using multiple DLCs).

To rack mount or wall/surface mount the DLC-250.4, Theory offers two complementary accessory kits. The DLC-250.4 is safety and EMC certified and compliant to ErP and EnergySTAR*. Later this year, a Dante-enabled version of the DLC-250.4, the DLC-250.4d, will offer even further installation flexibility and simplicity by adding Dante network audio and AES67 compatibility.

CEDIA Expo attendees can see and hear a surround sound demonstration of the DLC-250.4 in Theory’s booth #24035.
