Features:

All-in-One Design: Similar to the flagship model SRP-X700P, the SRP-X500P integrates the functionality of seven devices to manage today's modern presentation system. The 7 key functions include; RGB Switcher, Video Switcher, Wireless Tuner Base Unit, Audio Mixer, Power Amplifier, Feedback Reducer and Equalizer

High Quality Digital Processor: The SRP-X500P is equipped with digital feedback reduction function for each microphone input channel. It can be enabled to seek out the frequency, in which howling is likely to occur, and suppress the howling by reducing the amplifier gain with 5 band equalization.

Enhanced User-Friendly System Presets: The SRP-X500P supports various AV system configurations without any meticulous manual adjustments, by selecting a System type from the nine system presets. Alternatively, system integrators can customize parameter settings to optimize audio signal routing, and output audio delay settings.

Versatile Interface: The SRP-X500P is equipped with three composite inputs and two RGB/Component inputs. The SRPX500P supports high-resolution component signals such as 480p and 1080i, and also SXGA (1280 X 1024 pixels) for RGB. The SRP-X500P is equipped with four microphone inputs and two stereo line inputs.

Integrated Wireless Mic Tuner Slots: Up to two optional wireless tuner modules, the UWP-X1/X2 series or the WRU-806 can be directly installed in the SRP-X500P, making it simple to integrate a high quality Sony wireless microphone system into the presentation system. Please note : UWP Series models and WRT-WRU-806 Series models are not compatible with one another.

Comprehensive Remote Control: The SRP-X500P provides extensive control capabilities through its Control-S, RS-232C and parallel port or an optional RM-AV3000 series Wireless Remote Commander.

Built-in Four-Channel Digital Power Amplifier: The SRP-X500P is equipped with four-channel digital power amplifiers that can be switched between high and low impedance modes corresponding to various loudspeaker and room types.

Easy-to-Use GUI: The SRP-X500P is supplied with the Widows-based software program, the SRPX500P Manager. The SRP-X500P Manager program allows easy configuration of the system during installation, including control of audio processing settings, such as equalizer, AGC, and compressor using a simple and intuitive GUI.
