Crown ComTech DriveCore Amplifiers Series

The new line – consisting of four models, are all one rack, convection cooled amplifiers.

Offering up to eight channels and 150 watts per channel in a one-unit chassis without a fan, the ComTech DriveCore amplifiers are designed for a range of fixed installation environments, from video conferencing in boardrooms to luxury suites in stadiums.

The new line features the Integrated DriveCore technology chip designed to offer greater than 90 percent efficiency with no compromise in performance boasting a signal-to-noise ratio of 110dB, according to the company. DriveCore also has patented feedback and protection circuits integrated into the silicon for fast and accurate response, they say.

The amplifiers feature input routing and universal power supply.  Conforming to Harman Professional’s Green Edge environmental initiative, the amplifiers are convection-cooled and Energy Star 2.0 compliant. Crown’s new circuit components use fewer resources in manufacturing, but have also contributed to weight reduction in the amplifiers that result in less energy consumption. The amplifier’s operating efficiency is designed to translate into efficiency for output and each of the four amplifiers in the series weighs 10lbs.
