Power-Tech .1 Series amplifi ers are compact,
professional stereo power amplifi ers engi-
neered to meet the most demanding sound
reinforcement needs. They compare very
favorably to more expensive amplifi ers, pro-
viding uncolored sound and signal-to-noise
ratios commonly associated with recording
studios. Plus, every Power-Tech .1 amplifi er is
backed by Crown’s unequaled Three-Year, No-
Fault, fully-transferrable warranty that covers
everything.
