The Russound 3.1 Channel Low-Profile Mini AVR Amplifier is designed to dramatically enhance TV audio by powering external speakers such as in-ceiling, in-wall, bookshelf or soundbar speakers. Featuring HDMI ARC with CEC control, this compact amplifier integrates seamlessly with modern televisions, allowing full control using your existing TV or cable remote.
With its ultra-compact design, the amplifier can be installed discreetly behind televisions, inside cabinets or within AV installations without affecting the aesthetics of the room. Multiple input options including HDMI ARC, optical, RCA and Bluetooth allow it to function as a versatile mini AV receiver for a variety of audio sources.
The HDMI ARC connection allows direct integration with modern televisions while CEC control enables volume and power control using the TV’s existing remote control. This eliminates the need for additional remotes and simplifies system operation.
The built-in Class-D amplifier provides efficient power output for left, right and centre speakers with a dedicated subwoofer output for enhanced bass performance.
In addition to HDMI ARC, the amplifier offers several audio input options allowing it to function as a compact AV receiver supporting multiple sources.
The integrated Bluetooth 5.0 receiver allows audio streaming from smartphones, tablets or computers. With a wireless range of up to 30 metres (100 ft), users can easily play music or audio content directly from their devices.
The compact, low-profile design allows the amplifier to be installed out of sight behind televisions or within AV cabinets. This helps maintain a clean and minimal living space while still delivering high-quality sound.
