The Obsidian 500 

Derived from the circuit design as the regular 19” Rack unit, but adds some flexibility with the selectable High Pass Filter. The 500 version also adds one more ratio to the party with the gentile 1.5:1 position. In addition to the release of the D/A/O 500, there will be a Dual Mono expansion module available which gives you independent metering for each channel, and the addition of the inputs to the Side Chain, which is crucial for many applications.
