Sparco IS-200 Plus Intercom Amplifier

Sparco IS-200 Plus Intercom Amplifier

Sparco IS-200 PLUS is an intercom unit from the Sparco collection, designed for communication between driver and co-driver in a rally or competition car. In a single housing you get volume control for both crew members, leads terminated with connectors and two ways to power it.

The unit is analogue and comes in one size, so there is no version to choose. The manufacturer describes it as an intercom unit with two independent control channels.

Detailed look at the unit

The housing is black, with an angular, chamfered shape. On the top surface you will find two volume knobs. The left one is marked with a yellow accent, the right one with a blue accent. A round button sits in the middle, and below it you will see the Sparco logo and the model designation in red. A metal mounting bracket with elongated slots extends from the sides, and black leads terminated with cylindrical connectors come out of the housing. At the front you can see the battery compartment cover.

Build and features

• Volume control: a dual potentiometer lets you set the level separately for the driver and co-driver.
• Nexus sockets: the leads end in Nexus-standard connectors.
• RCA connector: lets you connect a camera mounted in the car.
• 12V power: the power lead connects to the vehicle battery.
• 9V battery: the battery compartment gives you an alternative power source.
• Mounting: the bracket lets you fix the unit to the roll cage or the dashboard.

For rally crews

This intercom unit is made for drivers and co-drivers who need clear communication in the cockpit and the option to set the volume individually. It is also a good fit if you are building or upgrading the equipment of a rally car.
