The Crown DCi4x2400N is a high-power, four-channel amplifier designed for professional sound installations that demand performance, reliability, and flexibility. Powered by Crown's proprietary DriveCore technology, the DCi4x2400N provides up to 2400W per channel, making it an ideal solution for large-scale sound systems such as those in commercial venues, stadiums, and houses of worship. With the ability to handle a wide range of audio needs, this amplifier delivers clear, powerful sound without compromising on efficiency or versatility.

Seamless Audio Integration with Analog and Digital Inputs
One of the standout features of the DCi4x2400N is its flexibility in handling both analog and digital inputs. This dual-input capability makes it easy to integrate the amplifier into a variety of systems, whether you’re working with traditional analog sources or modern digital audio transport. With Harman’s proprietary BLU Link, digital audio signals are transported efficiently and with minimal loss, ensuring high-quality sound reproduction across long distances. In the event of a signal interruption, the amplifier automatically switches to the backup input, maintaining continuous audio playback without manual intervention.

Advanced Network Monitoring and Remote Control
For sound system managers and integrators, the DCi4x2400N offers extensive network monitoring and control features. Utilizing the HiQnet protocol over standard TCP/IP, users can monitor amplifier performance and make adjustments remotely. This is particularly valuable in large installations, where accessing individual units can be time-consuming. With the included Audio Architect software, you can view system performance data, change audio settings, and manage DSP parameters from a single interface, ensuring your sound system is optimized at all times.

Powerful Digital Signal Processing Features
The DCi4x2400N comes with advanced DSP capabilities that provide full control over the sound output. These include LevelMAX limiters to protect speakers from damage, input and output equalization for precise tone shaping, delay settings for speaker alignment, a matrix mixer for routing audio signals to specific outputs, and speaker line monitoring for added system reliability. These powerful DSP tools help to ensure the amplifier can adapt to a wide range of acoustic environments and speaker configurations, delivering optimal performance in any setting.

Customizable General Purpose Input/Output Ports
For added control and flexibility, the DCi4x2400N includes programmable General Purpose Input/Output (GPIO) ports. These ports can be customized to perform various functions, such as volume control, triggering preset recalls, or sending error reports to a master system. The GPIO functionality makes the DCi4x2400N easily integrable into automated control systems, enhancing the overall convenience of operation and providing additional customization options for complex installations.

Energy-Efficient Design with Compact Form Factor
Despite its impressive power output, the Crown DCi4x2400N is designed with energy efficiency in mind. It features a highly efficient power supply that minimizes energy consumption, helping to lower operating costs over time. Its compact design, occupying just 2U of rack space, makes it ideal for installations where space is limited. The efficient cooling system ensures the amplifier remains cool even under heavy loads, and its overall low-noise operation is suitable for environments where quiet performance is crucial.

Versatile Output Options for Various Speaker Setups
The DCi4x2400N offers flexible output options to accommodate a wide variety of speaker configurations. It is compatible with 2Ω, 4Ω, 8Ω, 70V, and 100V systems, making it suitable for both low-impedance and high-impedance applications. Whether you’re powering a few high-power speakers or an entire array of distributed loudspeakers, the DCi4x2400N’s versatile output options ensure it can meet the demands of any audio system design. Additionally, the amplifier’s ability to operate at high-efficiency 70V or 100V modes makes it particularly effective for large commercial sound installations where long cable runs are necessary.
