Introduction to Amperes ES8787
We are pleased to introduced a new accessory to enhance installation convenience — the new Amperes ES8787 Surface Mounting Box (ABS). It is designed for professional PA system installations where durability and aesthetics matter.
Whether you’re an installer, consultant, or system integrator, the ES8787 Surface Mounting Box (or Volume Controller Enclosure Box) offers an easy solution for secure mounting of Amperes VC7000 Series & VC8000 Series volume controllers.
Key Features of Amperes ES8787
Robust ABS Material
ES8787's ABS material ensures long-lasting durability, as it is lightweight, impact-resistant, and reliable for both commercial and institutional environments.
Surface Mounting Design for Easy Installation
As part of the new accessories lineup, ES8787 is ideal for situations where flush-mounting is not possible. It offers a neat, professional finish while keeping installation simple as it is.
Compatibility with 86 x 86mm Volume Controllers
Designed to work seamlessly with Amperes' range of volume controllers such as VC7000 Series and VC8000 Series Volume Controllers, both sized at 86 x 86mm. ES8787 is available in white as standard and black upon request, it offers flexibility to match both VC7000's modern square faceplate design or the VC8000's slip-resistant grip knob faceplate.
