DCS SR-1000 – 10-Inch 2-Way Cinema Surround Loudspeaker (Pair)
DCS SR-1000 – 10-Inch 2-Way Cinema Surround Loudspeaker (Pair) is backordered and will ship as soon as it is back in stock.
What is the DCS SR-1000 cinema surround loudspeaker?
The DCS SR-1000 is a 10-inch 2-way cinema surround loudspeaker with 90-degree conical coverage and 94 dB sensitivity. It is built for the side and rear surround arrays of commercial cinema auditoriums and screening rooms. It is priced individually and sold only in pairs.
How does the DCS SR-1000 work?
The SR-1000 pairs a 10-inch (254 mm) low-frequency transducer with a 1-inch (25 mm) compression driver behind a passive crossover, rated for 150 watts continuous. The 90-degree conical pattern spreads surround effects evenly across the seating area so each seat hears the array, not just the nearest speaker. The cabinet is 12 mm MDF with internal bracing, and the rear panel has four threaded insert mounting points that accept the standard bolt pattern used by most third-party brackets. Pre-installed speaker-side hardware supports fast single-installer wall mounting on the QM-SW (15-degree down angle) or QM-BW (23-degree down angle) brackets, ordered separately, and a YM-300 yoke bracket is also available. In larger rooms, the SR-1020 and higher output SR-1030 are companion surround models, and the compact SR-800 suits smaller rooms. Pair the surround array with DCS screen channels such as the SC-1120 and a subwoofer such as the SB-1180 for a complete DCS system. DCS (formerly part of the QSC DCS line) is now sold by Moving iMage Technologies (MiT order code A011100-001).

Frequently Asked Questions
Which brackets fit the DCS SR-1000?
DCS lists the QM-SW (15-degree down angle) and QM-BW (23-degree down angle) wall brackets and the YM-300 yoke bracket. All are ordered separately.
Can I buy a single SR-1000?
No. The SR-1000 is priced individually but sold only in pairs, which keeps surround arrays matched.
How does the SR-1000 compare with the SR-1020?
Both are 10-inch 2-way DCS surround loudspeakers. The SR-1020 uses a 90 by 90 degree pattern; Creation Networks can help you choose the right model for your room size and seating layout.
Will the SR-1000 work with my existing cinema processor and amplifiers?
Yes. It is a passive loudspeaker that connects to a standard surround amplifier channel, so it integrates with common cinema processors and DSP-based systems. Creation Networks can check amplifier loading for your array.

Creation Networks designs, installs and commissions DCS cinema sound systems nationwide, including surround array layout, mounting and system tuning.
