Harrison Audio D510r 500 Series Chassis

The Harrison Audio D510r 500 Series chassis is an ultra-flexible 10-slot rack system designed to be the foundation of any 500 Series studio or broadcast rig. Built into a rugged steel 19-inch rack enclosure measuring 3RU in height, the D510r houses up to ten 500 Series modules, each powered via high-quality gold-plated edge connectors with balanced XLR inputs and outputs on the rear panel. As a result, engineers can mix and match preamps, EQs, compressors, and dynamics modules from any 500 Series-compatible brand into a single, road-ready rack. In addition, the chassis can be expanded with an analog summing mixer, a Dante AoIP interface, or a USB/ADAT interface, turning a simple module rack into a complete recording or networking front-end. Marshall Music South Africa stocks the Harrison Audio D510r 500 Series chassis for studios and touring engineers across South Africa building out flexible 500 Series rigs.

Why the Harrison Audio D510r 500 Series Chassis Stands Out

Power delivery is a key differentiator for the D510r — its built-in power supply delivers 30% more power per module than the standard 500 Series specification, with a dedicated 170mA per-slot PSU ensuring even power-hungry modules run cleanly without starving neighboring slots. However, the D510r’s real strength is its expandability: the same 10-slot chassis can be configured as a straightforward analog rack with balanced XLR I/O, upgraded with a Dante AoIP card for network integration (such as the Harrison D510dante), or fitted with a USB/ADAT interface for direct DAW connectivity. Whether you’re building a compact mobile rig, a full studio outboard rack, or a Dante-networked broadcast system, the Harrison Audio D510r 500 Series chassis adapts to the configuration you need. Marshall Music South Africa can help South African studios and touring engineers build out a reliable, expandable 500 Series rack around the D510r.

Harrison Audio

Harrison Audio (Harrison Consoles) is a legendary American console manufacturer with a history stretching back to the 1970s, having built large-format consoles used on countless major film, broadcast, and music projects. Today, Harrison Audio channels that console-building heritage into the D510r — a flexible 500 Series rack system designed to turn a collection of 500 Series modules into a fully networked, Dante-ready studio or broadcast rig. As a result, Harrison Audio’s interface cards and rack systems are built for facilities that need to bridge classic analog outboard gear with modern AoIP (Audio over IP) workflows. In addition, Harrison’s AKM-based conversion and redundant networking options reflect the same reliability standards expected of broadcast-grade consoles. Whether you’re building a Dante-networked 500 Series rig for a studio or a touring rack, Harrison Audio’s interface cards make analog-to-network integration straightforward. Marshall Music South Africa stocks Harrison Audio interface cards and rack systems for studios and broadcast facilities across South Africa.
