Description
AudioControl D4400 Director 16-Channel Network Power Amplifier 3U Rackmount
The AudioControl D4400 Director is a 16-channel rackmount network power amplifier designed for whole-home and commercial multi-zone audio distribution. It combines a 16-channel amplifier with digital signal processing, an Ethernet control interface, and zone-level management into a single 3U rack unit. The D4400 is part of AudioControl's Director product line, intended for custom installation environments where centralized amplification and network-based control of multiple audio zones are required.

Applications
The AudioControl D4400 Director was designed for structured-wiring whole-home audio installations and commercial distributed audio systems where a single rack-mounted amplifier must independently drive multiple speaker zones. It is well-suited to custom AV integration projects, hospitality environments, and commercial facilities that require per-zone DSP control, network programmability, and the ability to manage sources and trigger devices across a building. The Ethernet-based DHCP control interface allows integration with network-based home automation systems. AudioControl products of this type are commonly deployed by custom integrators in residential and light-commercial environments requiring professional-grade multi-zone amplification in a compact rackmount footprint.
This AudioControl D4400 Director 16-Channel Network Power Amplifier powers on, but during our bench evaluation we were unable to obtain audio output from any channel. We are not specialists in this product's network setup and configuration, and it is possible the unit requires software or network programming to function correctly — however, we cannot confirm this and are therefore listing it honestly as-is for parts or repair. The unit is in reasonably clean cosmetic condition with normal wear consistent with installed use. The rear panel shows all zone inputs, Bus 1/Bus 2 connectors, Ethernet port, speaker terminal blocks, and IEC AC inlet all appear intact and undamaged. Rack mounting brackets are included. This unit is sold strictly as-is with no functionality guarantee. Please view our photo set and contact us if you have any questions.
