About Crown Audio CDi 4|300

When it comes to professional audio amplification, the Crown Audio CDi DriveCore Series 4-Channel 300W Professional Power Amplifier stands out with its advanced technology and high-performance capabilities. This powerful, high-quality amplifier is an evolution in sound reinforcement, offering a rich feature set at a competitive cost.

Derived from Crown Audio's flagship Installed Sound amplifier, the DriveCore Install series, this 4-channel amplifier is designed to deliver superior audio quality in small to medium-sized installations such as restaurants and retail stores. It's not just an amplifier, but a comprehensive audio solution with built-in network control and monitoring, high-level Digital Signal Processing (DSP), and a user-friendly front-panel interface.

One of the standout features of this professional power amplifier is its ability to drive up to 100Vrms speaker loads without requiring a transformer. This makes it a versatile choice for a wide range of high impedance applications.

The CDi DriveCore Series is equipped with Crown's proprietary DriveCore technology. This innovative feature eliminates hundreds of components within each amplifier, reducing the variability of component values, enhancing reliability, and delivering incredible audio fidelity from an efficient design.

The amplifier's on-board DSP allows for custom configuration and includes integrated 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.

Network control and monitoring are made easy through Harman's HiQnet Audio Architect software, enabling the CDi DriveCore to be controlled, configured, and monitored through a standard TCP/IQ network.

The amplifier also comes pre-loaded with JBL speaker tunings for quicker and easier setup and installation. Additionally, the GPIO/AUX Port allows for preset recall, channel muting, fault monitoring, and power control.

In summary, the Crown Audio CDi DriveCore Series 4-Channel 300W Professional Power Amplifier is a durable, advanced, and powerful solution for any professional audio application requiring high-quality sound and robust performance.
