Engineered for simplicity, the CA1201 is a breeze to install and operate, catering to both technical and non-technical users alike. Whether it's bars & restaurants, retail spaces, hotels, corporate environments, educational institutions, or any location requiring background music or a reliable public address system—the CA1201 stands ready to elevate your audio experience.

Energy Star * Certified

Thanks to its direct drive constant power technology, the CA1201 ensures not just superior audio quality and reliability, but also boasts Energy Star certification by consuming less mains power compared to its counterparts. This groundbreaking technology enables the creation of robust amplifier systems that not only cut down on electricity costs but also reduce the demands and expenses involved in installation, potentially utilizing existing mains infrastructure. This results in substantial savings during installation and operation, all while promoting environmental sustainability.

Easy to Install

The CA1201 offers versatile placement options. Fitted with rubber feet, these amplifiers can sit securely on desks, shelves, or any flat surface without additional installation needs. Additionally, included rack mounting hardware allows one or multiple units to be enclosed and protected within a rack. This flexibility allows for single-unit housing in a half 19" rack or a full rack enclosure, and two amplifiers can be effortlessly mounted side-by-side within a single rack space. Moreover, utilizing the provided brackets, the unit can also be wall-mounted or placed under a table or shelf.

Automatic Power On/Off

The CA1201 features an intelligent power scheme, automatically powering on or off based on the input signal, effectively reducing consumption during idle periods. With minimal setup required, this energy-efficient amplifier offers a hassle-free and hands-off operation. When powered on but inactive for 20 minutes, it automatically transitions into sleep mode to minimize power usage. Upon signal detection by the Auto Ramp circuit, the system swiftly powers up, resuming normal operation. Additionally, the amplifier can be instantly switched to standby mode or activated using the front panel power button.

Sublimely Simple Controls

The CA1201 boasts user-friendly controls designed for swift adjustments. With an easily accessible front panel power button and Master volume knob, operating the system becomes effortless for anyone. While the Bass and Treble controls offer fine-tuning capabilities, they do require a tool for making adjustments.

Easy to Hook Up

The CA1201 offers versatile connectivity options. It features a standard 3-pin Euroblock Input socket for balanced sources like mixers or audio processors. For unbalanced stereo sources like players, phones, or computers, RCA cables can be connected (summed to mono), though only one input source should be used at a time. Additionally, Loudspeaker Output is available via a standard 2-pin Euroblock socket.

Output Configuration

Configuring the output channels is made intuitive with dipswitches placed next to the rear panel Euroblock output connector. These switches enable easy selection between 100 V, 70 V, 8 Ω, or 4 Ω operation, adjusting both the output voltage and device gain. An independent control activates the integrated high-pass filter. It's recommended to use this filter with constant voltage systems to prevent saturation in transformer-enabled loudspeakers and ensure sound quality is maintained.

Expandable Remote Control

The RJ45 receptacle located on the rear panel offers extensive remote control possibilities, facilitating connections with various control options such as the CRC-V Series wall controllers and the sleek LAB.LEVEL tabletop controller. These devices can easily interconnect using affordable and commonly available Ethernet cabling.

System Scalability

Commercial installations often evolve and expand, demanding adaptable solutions. The CA1201, within a versatile product family, offers both single and dual-zone options, ideal for scaling systems to any size. Its individual zone volume control and remote capabilities make it a perfect foundational component for a flexible and dynamic system solution.

Real-World Energy Savings

The CA1201 120-Watt Commercial Amplifier simplifies delivering top-quality music and announcements to business and industrial environments. With user-friendly integration and advanced features like Auto Ramp and direct drive constant power technology, this Energy Star-certified amplifier generates substantial energy savings, potentially paying for itself quickly.
