It provides six amplified channels for front, rear, and additional speaker zones from one compact chassis. It is suited to car, marine, motorcycle, and powersports-style installations where space and system flexibility matter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 4 ohms, the VCU86 is rated at 100 watts RMS per channel across all six channels. It can also deliver 150 watts RMS per channel at 2 ohms, or bridge paired channels for 300 watts RMS across three 4-ohm bridged channels. This configuration supports conventional multi-speaker systems as well as builds that need higher power from bridged channel pairs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe amplifier uses a full-range Class-D design with an IR chipset and DirectFET power MOSFET output stage. Its published bandwidth is 10Hz to 35kHz at -3dB, while the specified THD figure is 0.05% at 1kHz into 4 ohms. These specifications support use with full-range speakers and properly matched passive or active system sections.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor integration flexibility, the VCU86 accepts both high-level and low-level input signals with input sensitivity rated from 200mV to 10V. Its REM\/DC\/VOX turn-on configurator offers multiple activation approaches for different source-unit setups. Boosted RFI rejection is also specified to help reduce installation-related interference.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe VCU86 is built around a compact 4-layer PCB with SMD construction and a conformal coating. Cerwin-Vega specifies a water-resistant design, making it a practical option where moisture exposure is a consideration. Built-in crossover controls provide tuning options when matching speakers, subwoofers, and amplifier channels within a system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSix-Channel Output:\u003c\/strong\u003e Powers up to six speaker channels from one amplifier.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlexible RMS Ratings:\u003c\/strong\u003e Delivers 100W x 6 at 4 ohms or 150W x 6 at 2 ohms.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBridgeable Channels:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pairs channels for 300W x 3 at 4 ohms.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClass-D Architecture:\u003c\/strong\u003e Uses full-range digital topology in a compact amplifier format.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHi\/Lo-Level Inputs:\u003c\/strong\u003e Supports high-level and low-level inputs up to 12V.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Crossovers:\u003c\/strong\u003e Includes high-pass, low-pass, and subsonic filter controls.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDesign \u0026amp; Installation\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe VCU86 measures 11.24 inches long, 4.02 inches wide, and 1.4 inches high.

Match speakers to the stated 2-ohm or 4-ohm channel ratings, and use only 4-ohm loads when bridging channel pairs. The high- and low-level inputs, REM\/DC\/VOX turn-on options, and crossover controls should be configured for the connected source unit and speaker system.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cerwin Vega","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45619133907014,"sku":"CER-VCU86V2","price":812.56,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0048\/4163\/5910\/files\/519pGbkmdQL.jpg?v=1784370227","url":"https:\/\/audiowatt.store\/products\/cerwin-vega-cer-vcu86v2-6-channel-class-d-amplifier","provider":"Audio Watt Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
