TOURCLASS/PROTECTION CIRCUITS
ACL
™ (Active Clip Limiting) prevents speaker damage by
providing gentle gain reduction when the signal approaches the
clipping threshold.
IGM (Instantaneous Gain Modulation) monitors speaker loads
to detect conditions that may overstress output devices. This allows
safe operation into nominal
2Ω speaker loads.
AUTORAMP™ gradually increases gain to the attenuator level
settings when the amplifier is turned on.
This prevents abrupt turn-on
level.
Other protection features include:
short circuit, DC voltage,
comprehensive thermal management and current in-rush turn-on/off
transient and subsonic input.
DESCRIPTION
Crest Audio CC Series amplifiers are designed to achieve
unsurpassed sonic performance and long-term reliability under
extreme stress in touring or fixed installation applications.
Absolute sonic accuracy is the hallmark of every Crest amplifier.
Bass is solid and defined to the limits of audibility with ample
current reserves. Wide-bandwidth output devices ensure
detailed, transparent high frequency response. And, thanks to
Crest’s exclusive IGM
™ circuit, the CC Series will drive 2Ω
loads safely without compromising performance.
