Crown CT8150 – 8-Channel 150W ComTech DriveCore Rack-Mount Amplifier
Product Overview
The Crown CT8150 is an eight-channel, 150-watt-per-channel ComTech DriveCore installation amplifier offering high channel density with higher output than the CT875, designed for large multi-zone commercial audio systems requiring more amplification headroom per zone. Part of Crown's ComTech DriveCore series, the CT8150 is suited for conference centers, corporate campuses, houses of worship, and institutional facilities requiring eight independently driven higher-output audio zones with 70V and 100V constant-voltage support from a 2U rack chassis.
Product Description
The CT8150 delivers 150 watts per channel into 8 ohms across all eight channels with 70V and 100V constant-voltage output alongside 4-ohm low-impedance operation. Crown's DriveCore technology integrates driver and output stages for improved thermal efficiency in the 2U chassis across eight channels simultaneously. Eight independent channels with individual level controls support zone-specific audio management across large multi-room commercial installations. The amplifier includes comprehensive DC, thermal, and short-circuit protection on all eight channels for reliable unattended commercial operation.
Key Features
- Eight channels at 150W/8Ω — Higher output than CT875 for larger speaker loads and longer 70V distribution runs across eight zones.
- 70V/100V constant-voltage output — All eight channels support distributed ceiling speaker systems.
- Crown DriveCore technology — Integrated IC for thermal efficiency in an eight-channel commercial rack installation.
- 2U rack-mount chassis — Eight higher-output channels in a compact 2U footprint.
- Independent channel level control — Zone-specific volume adjustment across all eight channels.
- 4Ω low-impedance operation — Direct-drive speaker capability alongside constant-voltage output.
- Comprehensive protection — DC, thermal, and short-circuit protection on all eight channels.
Typical Applications
- Large corporate campus and conference center multi-zone audio
- House of worship distributed fill speaker systems across multiple zones
- Commercial retail and hospitality multi-zone background music
- Government and institutional facility multi-zone distributed audio
- University campus and training facility distributed audio zones
- Large multi-purpose room distributed speaker systems
