Crown IT9000HD Two-channel, 3500W @ 4Ω Power Amplifier

Crown IT9000HD Two-channel, 3500W @ 4Ω Power Amplifier

The Crown IT9000HD is a Two-channel, 3500W @ 4Ω Power Amplifier. It is one of the I-Tech HD amplifiers, one of the most technologically advanced professional touring amplifiers on the market nowadays, even if you look at it inside and outside. The Crown IT9000HD is created with the insight Crown is known for, the decades of building on invention and innovation. It comes along with five new patents, three on the power supply alone which gives the user an amp that can go well beyond the expected. At the center of this Crown IT9000HD is the BSS OMNIDRIVEHD™ processing engine. It is four times faster than its predecessor and comes with LevelMAX™ limiters and Linear Phase FIR filters, the OMNIDRIVEHD is capable of providing sonically pure and unmatched clarity signal processing.

Features

Innovation

• BSS OMNIDRIVEHD™ DSP processing with IIR filters and linear phase FIR filters
• Covered by five patents
• Fan has true tachometer feedback for fan fault protection and precise control over thermal performance, so the amp runs longer and harder than the competition
• Includes SLM (Sweep Load Monitoring) with system-level diagnostics

Performance

• Ultra smooth processing by onboard high-definition BSS OMNIDRIVEHD DSP with 24-bit, 192kHz Cirrus Logic SHARC A/D and D/A converters
• LevelMAX™ peak voltage and RMS power limiters communicate with each other, resulting in smooth and accurate response, better sound
• True Ethernet backbone – fast, reliable and scalable
• High common-mode rejection eliminates hum and RFI on input cables
• 6th-generation patented Class-I (BCA®) circuitry couples power efficiently to the load and provides low AC current draw

Versatility

• Global Power Supply; universal AC input accepts100-240VAC, 50/60Hz (±15%)
• Front-panel USB connector transfers presets to/from a USB drive to the amp’s DSP
• New software interface based on customer feedback manages presets, provides easier system-level changes, and includes a configuration wizard
• The only product available with analog, AES/EBU, CobraNet®, HiQnet™and Ethernet connectivity
• User -definable front panel security feature
• The only tour sound amplifier that provides inputs routable to any output (analog, AES, or CobraNet)

Power

• Professional-grade connectors for all inputs and outputs
• Full power-supply voltage is always available, allowing instantaneous power on demand
• Quality-graded components let you safely drive the amplifier harder
• More total capacitance provides tremendous energy reserves for power bursts
• 200Vrms peak output voltage provides clean transient peaks
