CROWN DCi 2|600 - Two-channel analog power amplifier, 600W @ 4Ω, 70V/100V

CROWN DCi 2|600 – Two-channel analog power amplifier, 600 W @ 4 Ω, 70 V/100 V

The CROWN DCi 2|600 is a 2U analog installation amplifier delivering 600W per channel into 4Ω and directly handling 70Vrms and 100Vrms voltages without external transformers. Based on DriveCore™ technology, it combines high energy efficiency (over 90%) with a compact chassis that maximizes rack-mount power density. Its robust, high-quality design provides integrators with the features and flexibility needed for demanding installed sound projects.

Main features

• True Rack Density: 600W per channel in 2U; two channels in a single compact chassis.
• Direct constant voltage: 70 Vrms and 100 Vrms output without step-up transformer.
• Independent Hi-Z/Lo-Z selection: Rear DIP switches on a per-channel basis for 2–16 Ω or 70/100 V.
• Bridgeable Pairs: Combine both channels into a single bridge for 1,200 W @ 8 Ω or 140 V.
• Remote On/Off Interface: allows integration into external control systems.
• Efficient cooling: variable speed forced ventilation, front-to-back flow, noise ≤ 45 dBA @ 1 m.
• Universal power supply with active PFC: 100–240 VAC, 50/60 Hz for minimum consumption and dissipation.
• LED indicators: power, signal, clip and fault on front panel.

Product benefits

• Small footprint: High power density in just 2U, freeing up rack space.
• Savings on wiring: 70 V/100 V mode without transformers allows the use of smaller section cables.
• Design versatility: independent configuration per channel and bridgeable option for subwoofers.
• Easy installation: DIP switches and diagnostic LEDs make setup quick and easy.
• Quiet operation: Variable ventilation reduces noise in critical environments.

Use cases

• Public address and background music systems in hotels, airports, and businesses.
• Sound reinforcement in conference rooms, auditoriums, and convention centers.
• Corporate and commercial facilities with multiple zones and presets.

Frequently Asked Questions

• How do you select 70 V or 100 V? Using the rear DIP switches for each channel, without an additional transformer.
• Is it bridgeable? Yes; both channels can be combined to deliver up to 1,200 W in bridged mono.
• Does it require external fans? No; its front-to-back ventilation maintains the temperature while keeping noise levels low.
