Crown Audio CDi 6000 2-Channel 2100W Commercial Power Amplifier with DSP and 70V/140V Support

Product Description

The Crown Audio CDi 6000 is a flagship two-channel power amplifier engineered for mission-critical audio applications that demand absolute reliability and massive output. This 2U rackmount unit delivers an incredible 2100 watts per channel at 4 ohms, making it one of the most powerful amplifiers in its class. It is uniquely capable of driving both low-impedance loads and high-voltage 70V distributed systems, providing a versatile solution for large-scale architectural audio and complex outdoor environments.

Equipped with an advanced onboard Digital Signal Processing (DSP) suite, the CDi 6000 allows for total sonic customization. The integrated processing includes high-precision crossovers, EQ, delay, and peak voltage limiting, ensuring that even at extreme volumes, your speakers remain protected and deliver clear, undistorted audio. These settings are easily accessible via the front-panel backlit LCD or can be managed through a PC connection using the USB-B port for professional-grade system tuning.

Built to endure the rigors of permanent installation, the CDi 6000 features a rugged steel chassis and sophisticated protection circuitry against shorted outputs, open circuits, and thermal overloads. The cooling system utilizes a high-efficiency proportional speed fan to ensure stable operation during continuous high-output use. With balanced block inputs and heavy-duty barrier strip outputs, the CDi 6000 is the definitive choice for professionals requiring a high-wattage, reliable cornerstone for their audio infrastructure.

FAQ

Does this amplifier require a special power outlet?

With a current consumption of 15.3A, the CDi 6000 is designed to operate on a standard 20A circuit to ensure it has the necessary current for high-output peaks without tripping breakers.

Can I use this for cinema subwoofers?

Absolutely. The extremely high damping factor and power output make it an excellent choice for driving large-format cinema subwoofers that require precise cone control and high wattage.

What is the benefit of the higher Signal-to-Noise ratio?

At 103 dBA, the CDi 6000 offers an even cleaner signal path than other models in the series, ensuring that the background noise remains virtually inaudible even when driving high-sensitivity speaker arrays.
