"The DSi Series marks a true turning point in the advancement of THX approved cinema audio systems as it is the first digitally integrated cinema amplifier that includes the DSP necessary for all loudspeaker processing requirements," says Stephen Morris, Crown director of marketing for cinema, touring and installed sound. "An abundance of crossover features are built into the DSi Series and each amplifier includes 20 presets, 15 of which are perfectly matched with JBL Professional's ScreenArray systems."
DSi Series amplifiers incorporate Crown's light and efficient switch-mode power supply, and all three 2U models use a 15-amp AC inlet and weigh less than 17 pounds. Power ratings per channel at four ohms are 500W for the DSi 1000, 800W for the DSi 2000, and 1200W for the DSi 4000.
