Introduction.

Congratulations on your purchase of a Crest Audio CK family of Power Processing amplifiers. Please read this manual carefully (espe- cially the the “Important Precautions” section located inside the front cover) as it contains information vital to the safe operation of the amplifier. Also, please fill out and return the enclosed product regis- tration card.

The CK Power Processing amplifiers represent new levels of value and flexibility never before offered to the contracting market. CKS Series models are specially designed to drive low impedance speaker loads - down to two ohms with “-2” models,. CKV Series models fea- ture a unique proprietary front end circuit to provide directly coupled

70.7volt outputs, eliminating the need for step-up transformers. CKX Series models feature transformer-isolated outputs for 100V opera- tion (50V optional). Together, these amplifiers cover almost every conceivable installed or distributed sound power requirement.

By combining legendary Crest performance with three unique plug-in module bays located on the rear panel, these amplifiers can become very sophisticated audio processors. The CK family is everything that you expect from Crest Audio. They are ruggedly built from high qual- ity components, intelligently laid out, and possess comprehensive pro- tection features.

After-sale support is considered paramount at Crest Audio.
