- 4 Ohm: 2x 47 W
- Dynamic power
- 8 Ohm:
- 4 Ohm: 2x 60 W
- Total harmonic distortion: <0.5%
- Attenuation factor: 40
- Frequency response:
- 20 - 40'000 Hz 2-channel

Special Features
- 4 VU meters
- Switch for 4-channel RM, SQ, Discrete / Stereo / Mono
- CD-4 connectable
- Synthesizer decoder function selector for:
- Concert Hall 1 and 2: stereo signals pseudo-square processed.
Surround: pseudo quadraphonic stereo signals, except that the listener is placed in the center of the musical action.
- The channels can be cyclically swapped by 90 and 180 degrees clockwise (Right Quarter Turn and Half Turn)
In the "Decoder" position, matrix-encoded records, preferably QS records, are listened to.
Remarks[edit]
The Sansui QS-500 contains two power amplifiers, a decoder for matrix-encoded records and a synthesizer for quadrophonic processing of normal stereo signals.
- If an existing stereo receiver amplifier is supplemented by the QS-500, this combination offers the same possibilities as a full-fledged quadro amplifier with regard to all types of quadrophony.
- Other models in the same series:
- Sansui QS-1
- Sansui QS-100
- Sansui QS-500
