Crown Audio CDi 2|300BL 2-Channel DriveCore Series Power Amplifier with BLU Link (300W at 4 Ohms)

Audio professionals in search of a cost-effective professional audio amplifier will be impressed with the Crown Audio CDi 2|300BL, a 2-Channel DriveCore Series power amplifier that utilizes technology derived from the flagship Crown DriveCore Install series amplifiers, providing an impressive mix of high-performance, rich feature set, and competitive cost. The CDi 2|300BL offers streamlined functionality for most small- to medium-sized installations such as restaurants, retail stores, and more. The 2|300BL comes with BLU link, adding the ability to send and receive channels over HARMAN’s digital audio BUS. The amplifier is capable of driving up to 70/100 Vrms speaker loads without requiring a transformer and comes pre-loaded with JBL speaker tunings to help make installations quicker and easier. The CDi 2|300BL features an Ethernet port for using HARMAN’s HiQnet Audio Architect software for configuration and operation over a standard TCP/IQ network. The rear panel includes terminal block inputs and barrier strip outputs. At a Glance Patented DriveCore integrated circuit combines hundreds of discrete circuits into one chip for better performance, lower power consumption, and improved reliability Supports configuration and control using HiQnet Audio Architect Monitoring and control over TCP/IP Color LCD and front-panel user interface for amplifier configuration, control, and monitoring Programmable GPIO (general purpose input/output) control port Digital signal processing (input/output EQ filters, crossover, input/output delay, LevelMAX limiters) Support for importing of FIR filter coefficients 20 device presets—1 factory and 19 user 96 kHz/32-bit floating-point signal processing Universal power supply with PFC for reduced current draw and industry-leading efficiency Power saving modes Remote power off—Sleep mode activated via AUX port 70/100Vrms direct drive Each channel independently configurable for low-Z or high-Z operation Advanced protection circuits—amplifier and loads are protected against shorted outputs, DC, mismatched loads, overheating, over/undervoltage, and high-frequency overload Three-year, no-fault transferable warranty—your investment is fully protected Complies with GreenEdge by HARMAN—environmentally friendly practices in design, manufacturing, and packaging complement energy-efficient operation Support for BSS Audio Soundweb Contrio Ethernet wall controllers Included speaker tuning for various JBL speaker models Network Control and Monitoring Through HARMAN’s HiQnet Audio Architect software, the CDi DriveCore can be controlled, configured, and monitored through standard TCP/IQ network.
