CDi 2|600BL Analog + BLU link input, 2 channel, 600W per output channel

The CDi DriveCore Series represents a new evolution in amplification, combining high performance, advanced features, and cost efficiency. Built on technology from Crown’s flagship DriveCore Install series, the CDi DriveCore 2|600BL delivers streamlined functionality for medium-sized installations, including cinemas, houses of worship, bars, lounges, and more.

Designed for flexibility and ease of use, the 2|600BL is a 2-channel amplifier featuring network control and monitoring, advanced DSP, a front-panel interface, and support for up to 100 Vrms speaker loads without requiring transformers. The BL model also includes BLU link, allowing channels to be sent and received over HARMAN’s digital audio BUS. All CDi DriveCore amplifiers come preloaded with JBL speaker tunings, making installation faster and simpler.
