Whether from the
point of view of saving electricity or from the viewpoint of
less heat in the rack, The Director has no equal. It is VERY
energy efficient during operation and equally impressive with
its efficiency during standby.

Pristine sonics happens first
in all AudioControl designs and is not compromised by any

Hard to believe, but we
make this product in the USA. We are very proud of that fact.
What is more important to you is the care we craft in at every
step and the extensive knowledge we have in all aspects of the
product. Plus, we back this up with a five year warranty.

Ever wonder if there really was
a signal on the speaker outputs of an amp? No wondering
with The Director because there is an LED flickering with
the signal level right next to each speaker connector.

When The Director is
in Standby, ready to turn on via a trigger, it draws less than 5
watts. Compare that to a typical amplifier.
