High Efficiency and Advanced Technology with DriveCore™
At the heart of the Crown DCi2x1250N is DriveCore™ technology, a game-changing innovation that integrates the amplifier’s drive and power output stages into a single compact chip. This integration minimizes energy loss and allows the amplifier to achieve more than 90% efficiency, providing high-quality audio while reducing power consumption and heat generation. With DriveCore™, Crown amplifiers maintain the sonic clarity and precision of traditional Class AB designs, but with the added benefits of higher efficiency, smaller size, and quieter operation. The DCi2x1250N is ideal for installations where both space and energy efficiency are critical.

Wide Frequency Range and Reliable Power Output
For those seeking a versatile amplifier that can handle a wide range of audio signals, the DCi2x1250N excels with its broad frequency response of 20Hz – 20kHz. This allows the amplifier to reproduce both deep lows and crisp highs, maintaining sound fidelity across the full spectrum. With a power output of 1250W per channel at 4 Ohms, the DCi2x1250N can drive multiple speakers in large venues, ensuring consistent and reliable sound performance. Whether you’re powering subwoofers for deep bass or high-frequency speakers for clarity, this amplifier has the necessary power and versatility to meet your needs.

Network Monitoring and Control for Seamless Integration
The Crown DCi2x1250N supports HiQnet™ protocol over standard TCP/IP, enabling real-time network monitoring and control of the amplifier. System integrators and sound engineers can remotely access performance data, making adjustments, and monitoring the amplifier’s operation without needing to be physically present. This capability is crucial for installations where multiple amplifiers are used, as it allows for centralized control and troubleshooting. In addition, the amplifier is compatible with Crown’s Audio Architect software and the Powered by Crown app, giving users even more tools for efficient operation and monitoring.

Comprehensive DSP Features for Custom Sound Control
The DCi2x1250N is equipped with powerful digital signal processing (DSP) features that allow for precise control over the audio output. DSP functions include LevelMAX™ limiters, input/output equalization, crossover, delay, matrix mixing, and speaker line monitoring. These features enable the amplifier to adapt to any acoustic environment, providing detailed control over sound shaping. Whether you need to optimize speaker performance for a specific venue, limit volume peaks to protect equipment, or adjust crossover frequencies for better system integration, the DCi2x1250N’s DSP ensures optimal sound performance every time.

EN 54-16 Certification for Life Safety Applications
One of the standout features of the Crown DCi2x1250N is its compliance with the EN 54-16 standard, a critical certification for life safety applications in the European Union. This certification ensures that the amplifier meets the stringent requirements for voice alarm systems used in fire detection and evacuation procedures. The amplifier can reliably transmit voice messages in the event of an emergency, making it a crucial component in venues and public buildings that require certified life-safety systems. With this certification, the DCi2x1250N is suitable for installation in a variety of commercial, industrial, and hospitality settings, including hotels, airports, and stadiums.

Flexible Programmable I/O Ports for Versatile Integration
The Crown DCi2x1250N offers programmable general-purpose input/output (GPIO) ports, which provide flexibility for custom control needs. These ports can be configured to serve various functions, such as controlling volume levels, recalling presets, or sending error reports to a master control system. This feature enhances the amplifier’s integration into complex sound systems, allowing for seamless automation and remote management. Whether used in a multi-zone audio system or as part of an integrated venue-wide setup, the GPIO ports ensure that the DCi2x1250N can be adapted to meet your specific installation requirements.
