Micro-Tech Series Power Amplifiers

1 Welcome

Crown's Micro-Tech 600, 1200 and 2400 are the original industry standards for touring amplifiers. Micro-Tech amplifiers are known around the world as the benchmark for high- density, ultra-pure power in a compact, light- weight package. In addition, each model gives you Crown's legendary ODEP® protection to keep the show going long after other amplifiers would fail.

Models MT-601, 1201 and 2401(for Japan) are identical to corresponding models MT-600, 1200 and 2400.

Modern power amplifiers are sophisticated pieces of engineering capable of producing extremely high power levels. They must be treated with respect and correctly installed if they are to provide the many years of reliable service for which they were designed.

In addition, the Micro-Tech amplifiers include a number of features which require some expla- nation before they can be used to their maxi- mum advantage.

Please take the time to study this manual so that you can obtain the best possible service from your amplifier.

1.1 Features

Grounded Bridge™ design delivers incredible voltage swings without stress- ing output transistors. This results in sig- nificantly lower distortion and superior reliability.

Patented ODEP® (Output Device Emula- tion Protection) circuitry compensates for overheating and overload to keep the amplifier working.

High damping factor provides superior motion control over low-frequency drivers for clean, accurate low end.

Two mono modes (Bridge-Mono and Par- allel-Mono) for driving a wide range of load impedances.

Full protection against shorted outputs, open circuits, DC, mismatched loads, general overheating, high-frequency over- loads and internal faults.

1.2 Unpacking Your Amplifier

Please unpack and inspect your amplifier for any damage that may have occurred during transit. If damage is found, notify the transpor- tation company immediately. Only you can ini- tiate a claim for shipping damage. Crown will be happy to help as needed. Save the shipping carton as evidence of damage for the shipper's inspection.

We also recommend that you save all packing materials so you will have them if you ever need to transport the unit. Never ship the unit without the factory pack.
