CE2000TX Power Amplifier
Operation Manual

1 Welcome

®
Crown CE 2000TX amplifiers provide profes-
sional audio amplification for a wide range of
applications, such as digital cinema. The
amplifier is very affordable, and features front-
panel controls for easy setup and use. They can
be removed for security.
Modern power amplifiers are sophisticated
pieces of engineering capable of producing
extremely high power levels. They must be
treated with respect and correctly installed if
they are to provide the many years of reliable
service for which they were designed.
In addition, CE Series amplifiers include a
number of features which require some expla-
nation before they can be used to their maxi-
mum advantage.
Please take the time to study this manual so
that you can obtain the best possible service
from your amplifier.
