CROWN DCi 4|600DA - Four-Channel Power Amplifier, 600W @ 4Ω with Dante™ / AES67 Network Audio and 70V/100V

CROWN DCi 4|600DA – Four-Channel Power Amplifier, 600 W @ 4 Ω with Dante™/AES67 Network Audio and 70 V/100 V

The CROWN DCi 4|600DA is a high-performance professional installation amplifier delivering 600W per channel into 4Ω and supporting 2/4/8/16Ω loads as well as 70Vrms and 100Vrms constant voltage systems without the need for external transformers. It features Dante™/AES67 networked audio (Dante 4.0 firmware, Primary/Secondary ports), high-power DSP with JBL speaker presets, and remote control/monitoring via HiQnet™ over TCP/IP. Powered by DriveCore® technology, it offers over 90% efficiency and variable speed forced cooling for quiet, reliable operation in demanding environments.

Product benefits

• Simplified integration: Dante/AES67 audio and HiQnet™ control over the same TCP/IP network.
• High efficiency: DriveCore® reduces consumption and heat, minimizing operating costs.
• Maximum flexibility: four independent channels or mono bridges for subwoofers.
• Quick Setup: JBL and DSP presets accessible from front panel or software.
• Life Safety: Supports Dante Domain Manager and GPIO ports for alarms.

Use cases

• Public address and voice evacuation systems in airports, hospitals, and hotels.
• Multi-zone digital audio distribution in convention centers and auditoriums.
• Corporate and commercial installations requiring centralized audio management.

Frequently Asked Questions

• How is Dante redundancy achieved? Using automatically switchable primary/secondary ports.
• What latency does it offer? Less than 1 ms on Dante/AES67 transport.
• Can I use it without a Dante network? Yes; it has analog inputs and presets that can be activated from the panel.
