Crown Audio DCi 4|1250 8 – Channel Analog Power Amplifier

Crown DCi4|1250 DriveCore installation power amplifier

The Crown DCi4|1250 is a high-performance four-channel amplifier from the DriveCore Install (DCi) Series, designed for demanding commercial and installed sound environments. Built on Crown’s proprietary DriveCore technology, it combines efficient Class-D amplification with advanced power management and flexible system configuration options.

This model is engineered to deliver 1250 watts per channel in dual-mode operation, providing substantial output for large-scale distributed audio systems. It supports 4-ohm, 8-ohm, and constant-voltage 70V/100V loads, making it suitable for a wide range of professional installation scenarios, from multi-zone background audio to high-output reinforcement systems.

The amplifier features channel-independent Hi-Z and Lo-Z selection, allowing each channel to operate independently based on system requirements. This enables designers to mix low-impedance loudspeakers and constant-voltage lines within the same unit, offering maximum design flexibility for complex installations.

Bridgeable channel pairs further extend system capability, allowing higher power delivery for demanding applications such as subwoofers or high-output zones. This scalability ensures the amplifier can adapt to different project sizes without requiring additional hardware platforms.

Designed for efficiency and reliability, the DCi4|1250 incorporates advanced power factor correction and a universal power supply for stable global operation. A high-efficiency forced-air cooling system with front-to-back airflow maintains thermal stability under heavy load conditions while minimizing noise. With its high channel density, flexible configuration, and professional-grade performance, the DCi4|1250 is well suited for large-scale installed sound applications.
