Crown Audio DCi 2|600N 2-Channel Power Amplifier

Crown DCi 2|600N

The Crown DCi 2|600N DriveCore Install Series amplifier is a compact and efficient two-channel power amplifier designed for professional installed audio systems requiring high reliability, flexible connectivity, and life-safety certification. Built on Crown’s proprietary DriveCore technology, it delivers consistent high-quality audio performance with reduced power consumption and efficient thermal management, making it suitable for continuous operation in commercial and critical environments such as transportation hubs, hospitality venues, public buildings, and emergency voice systems.

This amplifier integrates HARMAN’s BLU link digital audio transport along with balanced analog inputs, providing flexible hybrid connectivity for modern system designs. Its intelligent priority input routing automatically switches between primary and backup sources in case of signal loss, ensuring uninterrupted audio performance. The built-in DSP engine offers essential processing functions including EQ, crossover, delay, matrix mixing, and LevelMAX limiting for accurate system tuning and loudspeaker protection across distributed audio zones.

The DCi 2|600N is EN 54-16 compliant, making it suitable for life-safety and voice alarm systems in accordance with European standards. It also supports programmable GPIO ports for integration with external control systems, enabling functions such as volume control, preset recall, and system status reporting. Remote monitoring and configuration are supported via HiQnet protocol over standard TCP/IP networks, allowing centralized system control through Audio Architect software.

Designed for versatility, the amplifier supports 2Ω–16Ω loads as well as 70V and 100V constant-voltage systems, making it ideal for both low-impedance and distributed audio applications. Efficient front-to-back cooling, universal power supply, and high reliability ensure stable long-term performance under demanding conditions. The Crown DCi 2|600N is a dependable solution for critical audio installations requiring power, flexibility, and advanced digital integration.
