Applications
Home Cinema
Cary Audio approaches home cinema through its power amplification. The solid-state ES series stages are utilised in both two-channel high fidelity and multichannel systems.
There is no separate home cinema electronics range; home cinema is constructed using the same power amplifiers from the catalogue. Cary Audio itself positions the ES series amplifiers for home cinema use — the SA-200.2 ES, stereo, and the SA-500.1 ES, monoblock — which are the ones included here.
In multichannel use, Cary documents the use of ES power stages per channel pair: an SA-200.2 ES can drive front or surround channels; an SA-500.1 ES per channel when more headroom is needed for front channels or active subwoofers. The remote trigger (3.3–24 V DC) makes it easy to daisy-chain several units.
For integration with a multichannel processor, the SI-300.2d offers a direct path (Home Theater Bypass) and an integrated DAC, but it does not replace the ES power stages in pure power. More context in Solid State — ES Series and the SA ES series.
SA-500.1 ES
Solid-state monoblock from the ES series, designed for high-fidelity and multichannel home cinema systems.
