Overview
Bose Professional CSP-1248 and CSP-428 commercial sound processors offer right-sized I/O and simplified
configuration for small-to-medium scale projects. They are designed to serve as standalone DSP in
commercial applications such as retail stores and restaurants, or any public place where modest processing,
high-quality sound and facilitated installation is desired. Models feature a quick-setup workflow, using an
integrated web server with browser-based configuration utility, for making common tasks intuitive and
logical – ultimately reducing installation time. Integrated Bose-proprietary algorithms offer predicable control
options, while compatible interfaces like ControlCenter digital controllers and ControlSpace Remote offer
reliable, convenient operation for end users.

Product Features

Right-sized connectivity for cost-effective commercial installation options. Models feature balanced analog
I/O (CSP-1248: 8 × 4, CSP-428: 2 × 2), mono-summed RCA inputs (CSP-1248: 4 pair, CSP-428: 2 pair), 8 control
inputs, 1 control output, a mute contact, Ethernet network (for configuration or wall control) and Bose AmpLink.
CSP configuration utility provides an intuitive setup interface via the CSP's integrated web-server so that you
can quickly configure the CSP using a web browser.
Rear-panel Ethernet connection provides a local port for configuration via computer and a wider network
connection for control from compatible ControlCenter digital wall controllers or ControlSpace Remote clients
AutoVolume compensation continuously adapts zone output level based on the ambient noise of an active
space, as to maintain consistent program material (requires the Bose AVM-1 sense microphone accessory)
Opti-voice paging provides a smooth transition between the music and page signals
Opti-source level management monitors the input level of up to four sources. Source levels are continually
adjusted to maintain a consistent volume level among different source.
SmartBass equalization enhances the low-frequency output of select loudspeakers
Bose AmpLink output for simplified digital audio connectivity to supported power amplifiers
