Crown Audio CTs 600 Manual De Usuario

Building on the foundation of the Com-Tech

®

 

Series, the Crown

®

CTs Series offers new flexi-

bility and value for installed sound. The Com-
Tech Series was the first to offer independent 
selection of high- and low-impedance opera-
tion for a specific channel, and CTs Series 
amplifiers continue that tradition, with power 
levels and features carefully chosen to perfectly 
integrate into fixed install design requirements.

Modern power amplifiers are sophisticated 
pieces of engineering capable of producing 
extremely high power levels. They must be 
treated with respect and correctly installed if 
they are to provide the many years of reliable 
service for which they were designed.

In addition, CTs Series amplifiers include a 
number of features which require some expla-
nation before they can be used to their maxi-
mum advantage.

Please take the time to study this manual so 
that you can obtain the best possible service 
from your amplifier. 

•

Switching Power Supply for reduced 
weight.

•

High power-density, with all two-channel 
models in a 2U chassis.

•

Direct constant-voltage 
(70V/100V/140V/200V) or low-impedance 
(2/4/8 ohm) operation. No switch 
required.

•

Input sensitivity is independently select-
able for each channel. Choose low-imped-
ance (4/8 ohm),  constant-voltage (70V/
100V/140V/200V), or 26 dB. 

•

TLC protection circuitry protects the 
amplifier from long-term excessive heat by 
subtly and dynamically reducing the gain 
only when necessary.

•

JTS circuitry (CTs 600/1200 only) quickly 
protects BJT output transistors from 
unsafe operating conditions without shut-
ting the channel down. (Not applicable to 
BCA amplifiers as they are inherently pro-
tected.)

•

P I P 2 ™  (Programmable Input Processor) 
connector accepts accessory modules that 
tailor the amplifier to suit specific applica-
tions. 

•

Removable terminal block input connec-
tors, with “Y” Input Switch in the standard 
PIP2-BBY module.
