An amplifier with a power of up to 1000 watts at the peak is built according to the BASH scheme with maximum efficiency. The crossover is tunable within 30 - 90 Hz, if necessary, it can be disabled. There is an automatic inclusion of the input signal, which is very convenient if the sub is in an inaccessible place. Theatrical effects were conveyed convincingly, with due drama.
