Power Processing Amplifier
CKS 400
Description
The CKS400 Power Processing amplifier is designed specifically for the unique requirements of high-quality commercial and industrial sound installations. Design goals met by the CKS400 include exceptional sonic accuracy, high efficiency, minimum power consumption, comprehensive loudspeaker protection and the ability to handle extended duty cycles. In addition, the CKS400 incorporates CREST AUDIO's proprietary modular approach--called Power Processing--to input/output and external master control configuration.
Features
• Sequential turn-on/off (STO)
• PowerSave
• 3 module bays
• Cool operation
• Legendary "overbuilt" power supply
• More transistors
• TourClass® protection circuits:
• ACL (active clip limiting) prevents speaker damage with gentle gain reduction at clip threshold
• IGM (instantaneous gain modulation) monitors connected loads to detect conditions that may overstress output devices, allowing safe operation into difficult loads
• AutoRamp gradually increases gain to attenuator setting level when amplifier is turned on
• TourClass also includes comprehensive thermal management; short circuit, DC voltage, turn-on/off transient, current inrush and sub/ultrasonic input protection
• Selectable input sensitivity/voltage gain (internal jumpers)
• UL certification
• Front panel status indication
• Rear panel attenuators with removable knobs
• Barrier strip input and output connectors
• Optional input isolation transformers
• Front panel label area
