CTs Series

2-Channel

CTs SERIES

uilding on the foundation of the Crown

Com-Tech

Series, the CTs Series offers

new ﬂ exibility and value for installed

sound applications. The Com-Tech Series were

the ﬁ rst to offer independent selection of high-

and low-impedance operation for a speciﬁ c

channel, and CTs Series ampliﬁ ers continue

that tradition, with power levels and features

carefully chosen to perfectly integrate into ﬁ xed

install design requirements. For added ﬂ exibil-

ity, the CTs Series includes both dual-channel

and multi-channel models.

All models in the CTs Series feature Crown’s

new Switching Power Supply for lighter

weight, and all models are also compatible with

Harman Pro System Architect as well as the IQ

System

. Two-channel models accept PIP2™

modules, and also feature selectable high-pass

ﬁ lters and input sensitivity for each channel.

In a profession where unplanned service calls

quickly wipe out proﬁ ts, the CTs Series ampli-

ﬁ ers are designed to be the most reliable ampli-

ﬁ ers you can install.

6939 or 574-294-8200. Also, visit the Crown

Features

• Switching Power Supply for reduced weight

• High power-density, with all two-channel models in a

2U chassis

• Direct constant-voltage (70V/100V/140V/200V) or

low-impedance (2/4/8 ohm) operation

• Input sensitivity independently selectable for each

channel

• TLC protection circuitry protects the ampliﬁ er from

long-term excessive heat by subtly and dynamically

reducing the gain only when necessary

• PIP2 (Programmable Input Processor) connector

accepts accessory modules that tailor the ampliﬁ er to

suit speciﬁ c applications

• Removable terminal block input connectors, with “Y”

Input Switch in the standard PIP2-BBY module

• Switchable high-pass ﬁ lter for each channel provides

low-frequency roll off to eliminate step down trans-

former saturation when used in distributed systems

• Comprehensive array of indicators including Power,

Data and Bridge, along with Ready, Signal, Clip,

Thermal and Fault for each channel, provide accurate

diagnostics

• Blue Power Indicator ﬂ ashes if the AC mains is under/

over voltage

• Advanced protection circuitry guards against: shorted

outputs, DC, mismatched loads, general overheating,

under/over voltage, high-frequency overloads and

internal faults

• JTS circuitry (CTs 600/1200) quickly protects output

transistors from unsafe operating conditions without

shutting the channel down

• Legendary Crown AB+B (Multi-Mode

) output topol-

ogy in the CTs 600/1200 and Class I (BCA

) output

topology in the CTs 2000/3000 offer the best in ampli-

ﬁ er reliability

• Continuously variable fans optimize cooling efﬁ ciency

• Three Year, No-Fault, Fully Transferable Warranty

completely protects your investment and guarantees

its speciﬁ cations

• Crown’s advance-replacement Proﬁ t Protection Plan

provides quick, no-questions-asked replacement of

covered amps should they fail at any time up to 6

months following date of installation
