Inside and out, the I-Tech HD is one of the most technologically advanced professional touring amplifiers on the market today. Building on the decades of innovation, invention, and insight Crown is known for, the I-Tech HD features five new patents - three on the power supply alone - giving you an amp that goes well beyond the expected. At the heart of the new I-Tech HD is the BSS OMNIDRIVEHD processing engine. Four times faster than its predecessor and featuring Linear Phase FIR filters and LevelMAX limiters, OMNIDRIVEHD provides unmatched clarity and sonically pure signal processing. Standing only 2U high, the slight stature of the I-Tech HD belies the leading-edge technology within. A perfect example is the BSS OMNIDRIVEHD DSP engine. This integrated DSP is not only a breakthrough in the amplifier industry, but outperforms many of the best stand-alone DSP loudspeaker processors in the world. With the latest programmable studio-grade 32-bit Sharc processors with enhanced SIMD architecture and a proprietary D/A output filter for improved signal-to-noise at least 6 dB quieter than outboard DSP, it's easy to see how the decade-long partnership between Crown and BSS continues to go beyond "what's possible" and into "what's next."

At the heart of the I-Tech 4x3500HD lies another Crown breakthrough - DriveCore technology. A culmination of nearly two decades of R&D in PWM and switch-mode amplification, DriveCore is a Crown exclusive that combines hundreds of parts into one chip the size of your fingertip, resulting in more efficiencies and unsurpassed reliability. Bridging Crown's audio design and Texas Instruments' silicon design, this simple integrated circuit nests much of the output stage - including the modulator stage, error amplifier stage, and patented feedback and PWM modulation circuits for fast recovery on peak transients, accurate reproduction of low-level detail, and precise tracking of low frequencies at high power levels for maximum subwoofer output. In addition, DriveCore provides an extremely wide tolerance for sagging or "dirty" AC line conditions, which means your performance will never be compromised by fluctuating generator power or overloading. Greater accuracy, reduced weight and size, and high efficiency with best-in-class signal-to-noise performance - that's Crown innovation. That's DriveCore technology.

Crown Audio I-Tech 12000HD Two-channel Power Amplifier Features:

  • BSS OMNIDRIVEHD DSP processing with IIR filters and linear phase FIR filters.
  • Covered by five patents.
  • Fan has true tachometer feedback for fan fault protection and precise control over thermal performance, so the amp runs longer and harder than the competition.
  • Includes SLM (Sweep Load Monitoring) with system-level diagnostics.
  • Ultra smooth processing by onboard high-definition BSS OMNIDRIVEHD DSP with 24-bit, 192kHz Cirrus Logic SHARC A/D and D/A converters.
  • LevelMAX peak voltage and RMS power limiters communicate with each other, resulting in smooth and accurate response, better sound.
  • True Ethernet backbone - fast, reliable and scalable.
  • High common-mode rejection eliminates hum and RFI on input cables.
  • 6th-generation patented Class-I (BCA) circuitry couples power efficiently to the load and provides low AC current draw.
  • Global Power Supply; universal AC input accepts100-240VAC, 50/60Hz (±15%).
  • Front-panel USB connector transfers presets to/from a USB drive to the amp's DSP.
  • New software interface based on customer feedback manages presets, provides easier system-level changes, and includes a configuration wizard.
  • The only product available with analog, AES/EBU, CobraNet, HiQnetand Ethernet connectivity.
  • User -definable front panel security feature.
  • The only tour sound amplifier that provides inputs routable to any output (analog, AES, or CobraNet.)
  • Professional-grade connectors for all inputs and outputs.
  • Full power-supply voltage is always available, allowing instantaneous power on demand.
  • Quality-graded components let you safely drive the amplifier harder.
  • More total capacitance provides tremendous energy reserves for power bursts.
  • 200Vrms peak output voltage provides clean transient peaks.
