The RCD 500 audio system consists of a radio with an integrated 6-disc CD changer and speakers in the doors. The radio has a built-in amplifier with a power of 4x20 W. The front speakers are 3-way, while 2-way speakers are installed in the rear. There are different versions of the RCD 500 audio system: with speakers connected to 4 channels of the amplifier built into the head unit, or with an external amplifier. In this case, the speakers are connected directly to the external amplifier, and the speaker outputs on the radio are used to transmit the signal to the amplifier. The RCD 500 audio system includes the following speakers: 8 in each front door, one low-frequency, one mid-range and one high-frequency speaker, in each rear door, one low-frequency and one high-frequency speaker. To expand the functions of the external amplifier, there are connectors for supplying a signal to mute the sound during a call and an NF telephone signal input. The built-in 6-disc CD changer can read both regular audio CDs and CD-R and CD-RW discs.
