Crown CDi 1000 Specifications

CDi Series
T he CDi Series of Crown ® amplifi ers are
professional tools designed and built for
installed sound applications. The series
includes three models which are identical
except for output power: CDi 1000, CDi 2000,
and CDi 4000. All are rugged and lightweight,
and offer unmatched value in their class.
CDi-Series amplifi ers feature an intuitive front-
panel LCD screen to guide installers through
their confi gurations. CDi amplifi ers also offer
onboard DSP for loudspeaker signal process-
ing. Other features include a switch-mode
universal power supply, useful function indica-
tors, proportional-speed fan-assisted cooling,
removable Phoenix-style inputs, barrier strip
outputs for low-Z or 70V/100V/140V loads,
short-circuit protection and more.
Your investment in a CDi-Series amplifi er is
backed by Crown's Three-Year, No-Fault, Fully
Transferable Warranty.
