Product Overview
Restore low-frequency content and connect factory or aftermarket signals to your system with the AudioControl Epicenter Micro bass restoration processor and line output converter. Its ParaBASS digital processing, selectable speaker-level input impedance, and compact 5.9" L × 3" D × 1" H footprint support flexible integration in car-audio builds.
Key Features & Benefits
- ParaBASS digital restoration: Shapes and recovers low-end content to help bass respond more musically across varied source material.
- Selectable speaker-level impedance: Choose 20 Ω, 60 Ω, or 20 kΩ to match the speaker-level input to the connected output.
- Speaker- and line-level inputs: Two-channel inputs support integration with compatible factory or aftermarket signal sources.
- Flexible turn-on options: Traditional +12V remote, GTO Signal Sense, and Audio Sense provide several system trigger modes.
- ACR-4 dash control: The included dual-knob control and 20' phone cable provide a dash-mount control option.
- Compact, conformally coated design: Its small footprint suits tight installation spaces, while the coated PCB enhances resistance to the elements.

Why Choose This Product?
The Epicenter Micro combines bass restoration and signal conversion in one compact component. Its speaker-level input supports factory-output integration, while the line-level input accepts a signal from a preamp or head unit.
The selectable input impedance and multiple turn-on modes give installers options for fitting the processor into different signal and control setups. Its preamp output can feed additional amplifiers or processing stages.
Installation & Compatibility Notes
Check the available mounting space against the 5.9" L × 3" D × 1" H dimensions. Select the speaker-level input impedance to suit the connected output; the maximum input rating of 40 Vrms / 400 W applies at the 20 kΩ setting.
Use the two-channel line-level input for a compatible preamp or head-unit signal. Confirm the signal source, turn-on method, and connections required by your system before installation.
