About the R1250MC
The Russound R1250MC is a versatile 12-channel power amplifier arranged in pairs to provide amplification for six stereo zones. It is ideal for use as the main amplifier in home theater and distributed audio systems. Each channel delivers 50 watts RMS into 8 ohms and 80 watts into 4 ohms, with the ability to bridge two channels per zone for a mono output of 140 watts at 8 ohms. The amplifier features autosensing line inputs, independent zone triggering, bus inputs, multiple speaker outputs per zone, and robust protection circuitry including thermal and short-circuit protection. It is powered by three high-output toroidal transformers and includes rack-mount ears for installation. The R1250MC supports flexible configurations such as independent multi-zone audio distribution or bridged zones for home theater front, center, and surround channels.
