Product Overview

Product Overview

The CDi DriveCore Series is an evolution in amplification, providing an impressive mix of high-performance; rich feature set, and competitive cost. Using technology derived from our flagship Installed Sound amplifier (Crown DriveCore Install series), the CDi DriveCore 2|300 offers streamlined functionality to work in almost any small/medium sized installation such as restaurants, retail stores, and more. Designed for ease-of-use in a variety of applications, the 2|300 is a 2-channel amp that includes network control/monitoring, high-level DSP, front-panel interface, and support for driving up to 100Vrms speaker loads without requiring a transformer. The entire CDi DriveCore line comes pre-loaded with JBL speaker tunings to help make installations quicker and easier.

DriveCore Technology

Crown’s proprietary DriveCore technology eliminates hundreds of components within each amplifier, reducing the variability of component values, increasing reliability, resulting in incredible audio fidelity from an efficient design.

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.

DSP

On-board Digital Signal Processor in each amplifier allows for custom configuration

Input Router

Input Delay – Up to 1000ms

Input Parametric EQ – 8 band

Crossover

Output Parametric EQ – 8 band

Output Delay – Up to 100ms

LevelMAX™ Limiter

BLU link (BL models only)

Both receive and send channels over HARMAN’s 256 channel, fault-tolerant audio BUS, BLU link

Direct Drive 70/100Vrms Output

Each output channel is capable of provide either 70V or 100V for high impedance applications.

Front-Panel Interface

Completely configure the amplifier using an intuitive front-panel interface.

GPIO/AUX Port

Recall presets, mute channels, monitor faults, power on/off the amplifier, and more through a combined GPIO/AUX Port.
