S Series specifications

Crown Audio's S Series amplifiers are renowned in the professional audio industry for their excellent sound quality, reliability, and advanced technology. Designed to meet the needs of both touring and installation applications, the S Series has gained a reputation for delivering powerful performance and exceptional value.

At the heart of the S Series is Crown's patented DriveCore technology, which integrates the power amplifier's drive and output stage into a single chip. This innovation reduces the size and weight of the amplifier while improving efficiency and thermal performance. As a result, users can expect less heat generation and the ability to drive loads with ease, ultimately leading to longer operational life and reduced energy costs.

One of the standout features of the S Series is its output power options, which offer a range of configurations to suit various applications. The amplifiers provide up to 6000 watts, ensuring that they can handle large-scale events and venues with demanding audio needs. The S Series also includes advanced signal processing capabilities, including EQ and limiting, allowing users to further refine their sound.

The S Series amplifiers are built with durability in mind. They feature rugged construction, including a steel chassis and highly-efficient internal components, making them suitable for both touring environments and permanent installations. Additionally, the amplifiers are designed for ease of use, with an intuitive front panel interface that includes LED indicators for power, signal, and thermal status.

Connectivity is another strength of the S Series. The amplifiers offer a variety of input and output options, ensuring compatibility with different audio sources and speaker systems. The built-in network capabilities allow for remote monitoring and control via Crown’s Software, enhancing flexibility and convenience in live sound scenarios or fixed installations.

The S Series amplifiers also boast a high signal-to-noise ratio and low total harmonic distortion, ensuring pristine audio reproduction. This is crucial for professional sound systems, where clarity and fidelity are paramount for delivering an exceptional listener experience.

Overall, Crown Audio's S Series amplifiers combine state-of-the-art technology, robust performance, and user-friendly features, making them a preferred choice among audio professionals worldwide. Whether for a concert, theater, or nightclub, the S Series delivers the power and reliability needed to ensure outstanding sound quality every time.
