Crown Audio DCi 4X300 DriveCore Install Analog Series 4-Channel 4x300W Power Amplifier

How does the DCi 4X300 DriveCore Install Analog Series 4-Channel 4x300W Power Amplifier stand out in the world of professional audio equipment This high-performance installation amplifier, part of the new DriveCore Install series, is built on the proprietary DriveCore technology, setting a benchmark in the industry for quality and performance.

Designed, engineered, and manufactured to meet the highest quality standards, the DCi Series amplifiers are equipped with advanced features and offer the flexibility needed to tackle the demanding requirements of 21st-century installed sound applications. Compact and energy-efficient, these amplifiers carry forward Crown's legacy of leadership in professional and commercial power amplifier technology.

The DCi 4X300 Amplifier offers true rack density power points of 300W or 600W in 2-, 4-, or 8-channel configurations, all housed in a 2 Rack Unit form factor. This design allows for more channels in one box, promoting smaller infrastructure rooms, reducing operational costs, and providing maximum installation flexibility.

The Direct Drive Constant Voltage feature allows for the use of smaller gauge wiring to drive the speakers using either 70Vrms or 100Vrms, eliminating the need for a step-up transformer at the output. This results in higher audio quality delivered more efficiently.

The DCi 4X300 Amplifier also offers channel independent Hi-Z/Low-Z selection, allowing you to drive either one or two speakers in low-Z mode, or hundreds of speakers in high-Z mode (70Vrms or 100Vrms). This flexibility ensures the DCi powers all loads on a channel-by-channel basis, providing superior design adaptability.

Unlike amplifiers from other manufacturers, the DCi Series channels are bridgeable even in 100Vrms mode, offering even more adaptability for higher power applications such as subwoofers.

The amplifier also features a remote On/Off interface, allowing for easy integration into a control system for efficient power management. The efficient cooling design incorporates internal cooling fans that provide airflow to the most heat-generating parts, maximizing cooling while minimizing wasted energy and noise.

Finally, the DCi 4X300 Amplifier boasts an Advanced Power Factor Correction (PFC) Universal Power Supply, the most advanced power supply in an installation amplifier. This delivers power more efficiently in almost any condition, resulting in less power dissipated and less heat in your racks.

In summary, the DCi 4X300 DriveCore Install Analog Series 4-Channel 4x300W Power Amplifier is a testament to advanced technology, design flexibility, and efficient power management in the realm of professional audio equipment.
