Crown NCDI4X12BL-U-US 4x1200 Power Amplifier with BLU link
Crown CDI4X1200BL – 4-Channel 1200W DriveCore Amplifier with BLU link
Product Overview
The Crown CDI4X1200BL is a four-channel, 1200-watt-per-channel CDi DriveCore Series amplifier with integrated BLU link digital audio networking, combining high-output four-channel amplification with Harman's BLU link infrastructure for large commercial AV installations using BSS Audio signal processing. At 4800 watts total output with BLU link connectivity, the CDI4X1200BL is suited for AV integrators specifying high-output multi-zone amplification within Harman BSS-based system architectures in auditoriums, houses of worship, conference centers, and large commercial facilities.
Product Description
The CDI4X1200BL delivers 1200 watts per channel into 4 ohms across all four channels with 70V and 100V constant-voltage output and BLU link digital audio transport from BSS Audio processors over Cat cable. The integrated BLU link interface provides 256-channel digital audio at up to 96kHz/24-bit resolution, eliminating multi-core analog runs between the BSS signal processor and the amplifier rack. Crown's DriveCore IC manages thermal demands of high-power continuous-duty operation across four channels in enclosed commercial installations. Comprehensive DC, thermal, and short-circuit protection on all channels supports reliable unattended operation.
