Crown DCi 8 300 DriveCore Install 8-Channel 300 Watt Amplifier
The DriveCore„¢ Install series amplifiers is a complete line of high performance installation amplifiers based on the proprietary DriveCore technology. DCi Series amplifiers are designed, engineered and manufactured to the industry€™s highest quality standards, and provide system integrators with the advanced features and flexibility required for challenging 21st century installed sound applications. Versatile, compact and highly energy-efficient, DCi Series amplifiers continue the unbroken Crown tradition of leadership in professional and commercial power amplifier technology.
Features:
- True rack density €“ Offers power points of 300W or 600W in 2-, 4-, or 8-channel configurations within a 2 Rack Unit form factor. More channels in one unit allow for smaller infrastructure rooms, reducing operational costs and maximizing installation flexibility.
- Direct drive constant voltage €“ Saves money by using smaller gauge wiring to drive speakers at 70V RMS or 100V RMS, eliminating the need for a step-up transformer at the output for improved audio quality and efficiency.
- Channel independent hi-Z/low-Z selection €“ Drives one or two speakers in low-Z mode or hundreds in high-Z mode (70V RMS or 100V RMS), offering design flexibility with channel-by-channel load management.
- Bridgeable channel pairs €“ The DCi series channels are bridgeable, even in 100V RMS mode, for greater adaptability in high-power applications such as subwoofers.
- Remote on/off interface €“ Integrates the amplifier into a control system for easy power management, allowing the system to be turned on and off remotely to save energy.
- Efficient cooling design €“ Internal cooling fans provide targeted airflow to heat-generating components, maximizing cooling efficiency while minimizing energy waste and noise.
- Advanced power factor correction (PFC) universal power supply €“ A high-efficiency power supply operates in varied conditions, reducing power dissipation and heat within rack setups.
