About Crown Audio CDi 2|1200BL
Discover the CDi DriveCore Series 2-Channel 1200W Professional Power Amplifier, a revolutionary advancement in audio amplification technology. This high-performance amplifier boasts a rich feature set, offering exceptional value for professional installations. Drawing on the advanced technology of our flagship Crown DriveCore Install series, the CDi DriveCore 2|1200BL is designed to deliver streamlined functionality in large-scale settings such as cinemas, houses of worship, hotels, and cruise lines.
This 2-channel amplifier is engineered for user-friendly operation across a range of applications. It features network control and monitoring capabilities, high-level Digital Signal Processing (DSP), a user-friendly front-panel interface, and the capacity to drive up to 100Vrms speaker loads without the need for a transformer.
The 2|1200BL model is equipped with BLU link, a feature that enables the transmission and reception of channels over HARMAN's digital audio BUS. To facilitate quicker and easier installations, the entire CDi DriveCore line comes pre-loaded with JBL speaker tunings.
Experience the power of Crown's proprietary DriveCore technology, which eliminates hundreds of components within each amplifier. This innovative design reduces component value variability, enhances reliability, and delivers incredible audio fidelity in an efficient package.
Control, configure, and monitor the CDi DriveCore through Harman's HiQnet Audio Architect software via a standard TCP/IQ network. The onboard Digital Signal Processor allows for custom configuration and includes features such as an Input Router, Input Delay of up to 1000ms, 8-band Input Parametric EQ, Crossover, 8-band Output Parametric EQ, Output Delay of up to 100ms, and a LevelMAX Limiter.
The BLU link feature allows for both transmission and reception of channels over Harman's 256 channel, fault-tolerant audio BUS. Each output channel is capable of providing either 70V or 100V for high impedance applications. The amplifier can be fully configured using an intuitive front-panel interface, and a combined GPIO/AUX Port allows for preset recall, channel muting, fault monitoring, and amplifier power control.
Experience the power and versatility of the CDi DriveCore Series 2-Channel 1200W Professional Power Amplifier, the perfect solution for your professional audio amplification needs.
