The DRC is the digital interface between the AP8.9 bit and the user. The DRC mounted in the vehicle dashboard, provides access to control of the inputs and volume adjustments, balance, fader and subwoofer volume. Providing source selection between main, aux and optical inputs, it also provides four of the configurations created and saved by the bit one right at hand. The DRC also controls the functions of the Audison Thesis amplifiers when these are installed in the same system.
