About the RS500

ELAC’s Varro RS500-SB is a reference-series powered subwoofer designed for music and home theater in small to medium rooms. It uses a 10-inch front-firing aluminum sandwich woofer with HEX high-excursion surround, a 500-watt RMS (1,000-watt peak) built-in BASH amplifier, and dual 28-bit DSPs for control and calibration. The subwoofer supports Bluetooth Low Energy app control for EQ, crossover, phase, delay, and room correction, and includes both line-level and speaker-level inputs for flexible integration. Available source information shows a market price of about $1,299 to $1,399.98, with $1,299 cited in review coverage and $1,399.98 listed by a retailer; the lower figure is used here as the price field because the product is widely referenced at that level in reviews and commentary.
