CROWN DCi 2|2400N - Two-channel power amplifier, 2400W @ 4Ω with Blu Link, 70V/100V

CROWN DCi 2|2400N – Dual-channel power amplifier, 2400 W @ 4 Ω with BLU-Link™ and 70 V/100 V

The CROWN DCi 2|2400N is a high-performance installed amplifier based on DriveCore™ technology, delivering two 2400W per channel into 4Ω , plus 2100W @ 2Ω, 1900W @ 8Ω, 950W @ 16Ω and 2100W/2300W into 70V/100V constant voltage outputs. It features the BLU-Link™ digital audio bus for up to 256 channels with low latency over Cat5e cable, along with balanced analog inputs with a priority router that automatically switches in the event of a signal failure. HiQnet™ over TCP/IP protocol allows remote management and monitoring of all parameters, while programmable GPIO ports offer flexibility for volume control, preset recall and alarm signaling.

Main features

• Two power channels: 2400 W @ 4 Ω; 2100W @ 2Ω; 1900W @ 8Ω; 950W @ 16Ω; 2100W@70V; 2300W @ 100V
• BLU-Link™ digital transport over Cat5e for audio and DSP (up to 256 channels)
• Balanced XLR analog inputs and priority router
• HiQnet™ Monitoring and Control over TCP/IP
• Programmable GPIO ports for control and fault reporting
• Integrated DSP with LevelMAX™ limiters, input/output EQ, crossover, delay, matrix, and signal generator
• Frequency response ±0.25 dB from 20 Hz to 20 kHz; THD 0.35% (full power)
• Damping factor > 5000 (20 Hz–100 Hz)
• Load impedance: 2 Ω–16 Ω (stereo), 4 Ω–16 Ω (bridge), 70 V/100 V
• Variable speed forced cooling, front-to-back flow
• Universal 100–240 V AC power supply with active power factor correction (PFC); IEC 20 A connector

Product benefits

• Efficient installation: 2U format with compact dimensions that save rack space.
• High power density: Two high-performance channels in a single chassis, reducing infrastructure costs.
• Digital connectivity: BLU-Link™ and HiQnet™ make it easy to integrate into audio networks and remote control.
• Safety and Continuity: Priority router and programmable GPIO ensure seamless switching.
• Advanced processing: Full DSP with filters, limiters and matrix for fine tuning without additional equipment.
• Energy efficiency: DriveCore™ and PFC reduce power consumption and heat generation, optimizing continuous operation.

Use cases

• Public address and background music systems in hotels, shops, and airports.
• Corporate AV installations and conference centers with zoning and preset management.
• Sound reinforcement in auditoriums, theaters, and multipurpose spaces with digital distribution requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

• What difference does BLU-Link™ make? It enables audio transport and DSP control of up to 256 channels with minimal latency.
• How is a signal failure detected? The priority router automatically switches between primary and secondary inputs.
• Do you need transformers for 70V/100V? No; it delivers constant voltage natively on each channel.
